Watch Trump defend his presidency to presidential historians

John Fea   |  May 4, 2022

Watch Princeton historian Julian Zelizer convene a meeting with Trump and other presidential historians to discuss his legacy. (HT to Rick Perlstein for bringing this to my attention). We covered this story here.

Trump comes at the 14:00 minute mark. After initially pleasantries, he says, “If you are doing a book, I would like you to talk about the success of the Trump administration.” I respect all of these presidential historians, but I honestly don’t know how they kept straight faces through this entire thing. Trump essential delivers a stump speech to these historians.
