Trump 2.0 After 100 Days & America's Illiberal Roots

The first 100 days of the Trump administration have been deemed chaotic and overzealous, even by Americans, with multiple polls this week showing the President's approval rating underwater, even on his signature issues like the economy and mass deportations. There is an uneasy feeling that Trump is pushing America and the world away from democratic norms by stretching the limits of executive power. Christiane speaks with historians Jill Lepore from Harvard University and Timoth Garten Ash from Oxford University about America's illiberal turn under Trump 2.0 and the deep-seated roots of that illiberalism. Then, as President Trump pressures Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum to take decisive action against her country's cartels, CNN's Isobel Yeung went there to investigate what the crackdown looks like first-hand in Sinaloa. Also, as sirens sounded across Israel this week to honor those lost to terror and war, while Israel's total siege on Gaza enters its third month, Christiane talks to bereaved Israeli and Palestinian fathers, Rami Elhanan and Bassam Aramin who've channeled their grief and pain into friendship and a joint struggle for peace. To mark 50 years since the chaotic end of the Vietnam War, from her archives, Christiane pays a tribute to the famous wartime photographer Eddie Adams who captured some of the worst moments of the war and with his camera, helped change hearts and minds and ultimately, shaped government policy.
