President Trump Takes On The World In Speech At World Economic Forum In Davos
President Trump is driving home his "America First" message at the World Economic Forum in Davos. During a speech today, he said that he would take on predatory trade practices, but that America first "doesn't mean America alone."
He did not address questions about reports that he tried to fire Special Investigator Robert Mueller this summer. He has since, however, denied the allegations made in the New York Times report.
Nate Madden, Congressional Correspondent at CRTV, and Katherine Mangu-Ward, Editor-In-Chief at Reason Magazine, discuss what the president's speech means for America when it comes to the country's standing around the world. Madden and Mangu-Ward also take a look at the White House's immigration proposal and the likelihood that the plan makes it through Congress.
