Why Washington, D.C.
Episode description
Jimmy Carter sent his daughter to its public schools; pictures of Obama still grace businesses’ walls; and now Trump has taken an interest in Washington, D.C…by deploying the National Guard, reassigning FBI agents, vowing to evict the city’s homeless population.
Guest: Jenny Gathright, reporter at the Washington Post covering the D.C. region.
