NPR featured a segment with Norm Eisen and Norm Ornstein discussing Donald Trump's perceived "brutal violation" of presidential norms. The commentators argued that Trump's rhetoric regarding the press and his political opponents undermines the ethical foundations of the U.S. government. The hosts compare this focus on "norms and values" to past political movements in the Netherlands led by Pim Fortuyn.
