Helene's Destruction, Trump's Family Finances

Ravi speaks with Cory Vaillancourt from western North Carolina’s Smoky Mountain News about Hurricane Helene's devastating impact, why inland communities have faced such significant destruction, and the resilience of local residents. They also touch on the disaster's broader political and economic implications and the importance of local news. Then, Ravi welcomes Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporters Russ Buettner and Susanne Craig, authors of ‘Lucky Loser: How Donald Trump Squandered His Father's Fortune and Created the Illusion of Success.’ They discuss how the former president squandered his father’s fortune while crafting an image of success, from his real estate ventures to The Apprentice, and where Trump’s finances likely stand today.
