How has the response to Hurricane Harvey been?

Record rains from Hurricane Harvey have devastated Houston. Journalist Erica Grieder joins us from Texas as the state turns toward recovery. We talk about responses, from President Trump down to neighbors being neighbors. What’s raising the risk of flood damage across America? David Roberts from Vox.com examines city planning choices and climate change. Was President’s Trump's tax reform speech populist, as it was billed to be? David Frum's panic level about President Trump is still high. And Mark Harris from New York Magazine says Taylor's Swift's new single is the first piece of pure Trump era pop art.
