Jon Meacham: History isn't comforting, 'it should be inspirational' - Velshi - MSNBC

When there is so much on the line, remaining politically engaged is more important now than ever. “It’s always going to be really hard,” Presidential historian Jon Meacham reminds Americans, but there are principles that can’t be abandoned. "There was never a 'once upon time' in American history, and there’s never going to be a 'happily ever after.'" - Aired on 11/09/2024.
