It was an interesting week for Donald Trump, this country, and for all those that cover him. Damien talks with national political reporter for The New York Times Astead Herndon about the Helsinki Summit, Donald Trumps choice of words, and what the truth is about the election meddling investigation. The two also discuss the drop off in minority voting since President Obama left office and how that may influence the November mid-terms as well as the 2020 election.
In addition, Damien shares his thoughts on Tim Tyson’s book, The Blood of Emmitt Till, how his 1955 murder is still so relatable today, and why the Department of Justice would reopen this case after 63 years.
