RNC Night 1: Republicans Invoke The Specter of Socialism
The Republican National Convention kicked off last night on the theme, "The Promise of America." So what are Republicans promising, and to whom are they promising it?
On Today's Show:
- Christina Greer, political science professor at Fordham University, host of the podcast FAQNYC, politics editor at The Grio and the host of The Aftermath on Ozy, goes over highlights from last night's televised RNC.
- We know a lot more today than we used to about how Trump's 2016 campaign was run. And in fact, thanks to the newly released final volume of a Senate Intelligence committee report, new details about the president's last election have come to light. Natasha Bertrand, POLITICO's national security correspondent, Franklin Foer, staff writer at the Atlantic, and Andrea Bernstein, senior editor for politics and policy for WNYC News and co-host of the podcast Trump Inc., swap notes and discuss their takeaways from the 966-page report.
