Reconnecting with Voters, 100 Days into Trump's Presidency

WNYC News | Apr 28, 2017

Tomorrow marks the 100th day of the Trump presidency.

Back in January, just before the inauguration, WNYC's Arun Venugopal and fellow reporter Matt Katz took a road trip from Manhattan to Washington DC and spoke to voters about their hopes and fears.

Arun recently reconnected with a couple of the folks they met along the way and shares where they stand now.
