About this episode

Victor Davis Hanson discusses how Donald Trump challenged the Left's neo-Confederate policies.

President Donald Trump is the first president to challenge the Left’s “neo-confederate” policies, such as sanctuary cities, which seek to bypass the federal government’s historical supremacy over matters pertaining to immigration, and the Left called him a fascist.  🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA MovementThe Daily Signal, the proud producers of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” has a special limited time offer:  With a monthly donation $28, you’ll become BOTH a Signal Elite Supporter AND receive a copy of “The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA Movement”Click here to order: https://secured.dailysignal.com/support-daily-signal-today/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=youtube&utm_campaign=signalelite&utm_content=260820-vdh-book-youtube Allegiance Gold - Visit http://protectwithvictor.com/ to learn about a special Liberty Offer.  Vaer Watches - Go to vaerwatches.com/vdh The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites: Visit https://historicsites.heritage.org/ to start your adventure today.
