In Democracy We Trust? by Hugh Taft-Morales

Speaker: Hugh Taft-Morales



In his first inaugural address, Ronald Reagan said, “Government is not the solution to our problem. Government is the problem.” That drumbeat of opposition has continued, from Newt Gingrich to the Tea Party to today’s MAGA movement. Is villainization of government a permanent trend? Can we rebuild trust in democracy? Are progressives so worn out that they are losing faith? Hugh Taft-Morales explores responses to the anti-government movement that is sabotaging our political system.
