Tom Holland, the co-host of The Rest Is History, along with Dominic Sandbrook.
When we come back, we'll discuss the fate of the British monarchy and the American president that these guys call colossally consequential.
This is the New Yorker Radio Hour.
Stick around.
This is the New Yorker Radio Hour.
I'm David Remnick.
And as we get ready for the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, I've been speaking with Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook, the British historians who co-host the podcast, The Rest is History.
We'll continue our conversation now.
Let me ask you about the way you and Britain, or you too as British historians and podcasters and thinkers, are looking at the United States now as we're celebrating this 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
Recently, on one of your broadcasts, you called Donald Trump colossally consequential.
Colossally consequential.
Someone who defines...
his age, as opposed to many other presidents of contemporary times.
Explain what you mean.
Well, let me ask you this.
As an observer sitting where you are, and I don't necessarily disagree with you,
How much of this is an expression of him and the constituents he represents and the fact that he prevailed in a couple of elections?
And how much do you think that will be post-Trump,
How much of this will persist after Trump is gone, presumably in 2028?
I'm not saying the phenomenon itself will disappear.
