Are the United States still a functioning democracy? After one year under President Trump, that question is increasingly being raised. His administration has introduced a series of undemocratic measures in a short period of time and has frequently clashed with the judiciary.

How could so much change so quickly? Why does it seem so difficult to challenge Trump’s power? And could something similar happen in our own country?

Come and listen to political scientist Carolien van Ham and Americanist Peter van der Heiden as they explore the state of democracy in Trump’s America.
