ABOUT THIS EPISODE
It’s said ‘history is written by the victors,’ but what if the victor is U.S. President Donald Trump?
A new executive order is calling for signs to be installed outside the Smithsonian National Museum of American History warning visitors about “inaccuracies” in the exhibit – the latest move by the Trump administration to rewrite how history is explained in public institutions.
Washington correspondents Paul Hunter, Katie Simpson and guest host Jayme Poisson take a look at the different ways Trump is trying to reshape American history, and why it’s become part of his politics.
