How did Bush’s War on Terror coupled with his decision to not raise taxes put America on a deficit track it can’t get off? How did the system allow for bankers to get million pound bonuses while working Americans lost their homes, following the financial crisis? And how did all of this betrayal create the perfect storm for Trump’s populist agenda?
Join Katty Kay and Anthony Scaramucci as they discuss all of this and more.
