Summary
Donald Trump has done his first sit down TV interview with NBC News and it was largely a calm affair. Oddly he offered unity across the aisle. But he has made it clear that he wants to stop those born to illegal immigrants from claiming us citizenship. Would he change the constitution to do this?
Later, did the left of the Democratic Party let ideology get in the way of a winning strategy? We speak to the author of Morning After the Revolution, Nellie Bowles.

| 0:00.0 | The Newsagents USA podcast is brought to you by HSBC UK, opening up a world of opportunity. |
| 0:09.3 | This is a global player original podcast. |
| 0:12.7 | Let me ask you, sir, as you think about your inauguration, I remember your first inaugural address, you talked about American Carnage. |
| 0:24.6 | Have you thought about your message for your second inaugural address? I have. Can you give us a preview? |
| 0:26.6 | We're going to have a message. You'll make you happy. Unity. It's going to be a message of unity. |
| 0:31.6 | This was Trump's first sit-down interview with NBC since he won a month ago. And what you're going to hear over the course of |
| 0:41.4 | some of the clips that will bring you today is a very different sounding Trump, a man who has |
| 0:47.5 | been slightly reigned in from the madness of the language that was there eight years ago, |
| 0:55.1 | a man who sounds like he's had a go at governing already |
| 0:58.8 | and knows what he's going to do this time. |
| 1:01.2 | And it sounds like, maybe we're wrong, that Trump 2.0 |
