Summary

Bruce is on a tear being told that given the norm-breaking going on there is no place for history. Nothing can be farther from the truth.

But in the long swath of American political history, current events compare and contrast well to all sorts of things. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
