The Left, Right And Center Of 2016 Politics (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

We are in it now. Twenty-sixteen. The year of the election. And the politics will just get louder. My guests today are listening to the big political movement behind the daily reports from the campaign trail. Conservative David Frum says the GOP is cracking up, in revolt with itself. Its base versus its elites. Liberal Peter Beinart says that while Donald Trump pounds the podium, the country’s political center is going powerfully left. This hour On Point, to start 2016, a big look at the country’s political mega-trends now. — Tom Ashbrook
