Award-winning investigative journalist Andrea Bernstein tries to uncover the truth about who profits from the Trump administration on her podcast, “Trump, Inc.” Bernstein joins Errol Louis to talk about what she’s found and discusses her new book, “American Oligarchy,” which explores the rise of the Trump and Kushner families from their immigrant roots to the White House. She shows how they built their fortunes with the help of government and how she thinks they’re pushing the United States to an oligarchy. And she talks about her 21-year career at WNYC Radio, including a time she went to train reporters in Bhutan as it transitioned from a monarchy to a democracy.
