Diane’s farewell message
After 52 years at WAMU, Diane Rehm says goodbye.
Protesters gather in front of the Capitol Building in Washington DC in opposition to Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to the Supreme Court.
David Frum has been an outspoken critic of President Trump since before he took office. He sees Trump’s presidency as a symptom of the country’s diminished commitment to liberal democracy.
As he watched Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination unfold, his biggest concern was that Kavanaugh’s confirmation would be a significant step toward a more politicized Supreme Court, a Court that might have to rule on Trump’s presidential powers.
Guests
- David Frum Senior editor, The Atlantic; author of several books including "Trumpocracy: The Corruption of the American Republic"
