Victor Davis Hanson is one of the great American thinkers and educators. He is known in academic circles as one of the great classicists and military historians. He is a columnist and a regular guest on national media. Among the many things we discuss on this podcast, he answers the question, "Is there an historical example of a time when a country regained its liberties once lost?"
We discuss his perspective on on how we got to our current political climate. How did we get to the Trump phenomenon? What what effect has Trump had on the GOP? Will those changes be permanent in the future? Hanson gives a short primer on the recent history of Republican presidential politics and how that contributed to the rise of Trump.
Professor Hanson also shares some insights on how the COVID-19 response will affect the country in the future. How have American politicians taken advantage of this crisis? Have our rights been degraded beyond repair?
