Meet the Press, David Brooks Comment We’re in the 7th Circle (2016)

“On Meet the Press this morning they were discussing whether Donald Trump has the temperament fit to be president. Alex Castellano was trying to make a comparison between Clinton and Trump as ‘old testament’ vs. ‘new testament’, and right around 41:30, Brooks disagrees and says it’s more like we’re in Dante’s Inferno in the seventh circle of hell…” – David Brooks, episode S2016 E73116, Meet the Press, July 31, 2016.
