What Trump Can Teach Us About Con Law
Professor Elizabeth Joh teaches Intro to Constitutional Law, but the Trump presidency turned her straightforward job upside down. She would check Twitter five minutes before each class to see what the 45th President had said and how it aligns with 200 years of judicial interpretation. Acclaimed podcaster Roman Mars (99% Invisible) asked his neighbor Elizabeth to explain the constitutional law implications of the norms and laws being tested. Even after Trump left office, there is still much to learn. This weekly, fun, casual Con Law 101 class uses the tumultuous activities of the executive, legislative, and judicial branches to teach about the US Constitution.
