About this listen

 President Trump just delivered the longest State of the Union address in recorded history. But did he say anything of substance? Preet is joined by Yale history professor Joanne Freeman, Vox editorial director Astead Herndon, and former Deputy National Security Adviser and co-host of The Long Game podcast Jon Finer to discuss the speech, its political significance, and where Trump—and Democrats—go from here. In the bonus for Insiders, the panel debates whether Trump himself believes his own BS. Join the CAFE Insider community to stay informed without hysteria, fear-mongering, or rage-baiting.
