I'm Anna Martin, the host of the Modern Love podcast.
In every episode,
we peek into an intimate corner of someone's life and learn about what love means to them.
You know, I can tell you, 35 years with another person,
I've never spent that much time with anyone else either.
So we both kind of said I love you pretty fast.
My advice is that it's okay if it's hard.
You can listen to Modern Love wherever you get your podcasts.
This is the Opinions, a show that brings you a mix of voices from New York Times opinion.
You've heard the news.
Here's what to make of it.
I'm Aaron Retica.
I am an editor at large for the opinion section of the New York Times.
I'm joined today by one of our columnists, Jamelle Bouie,
who writes about politics, often putting it in historical context.
He's been doing this for a long time, since he got here.
But it feels particularly relevant in this moment as we see Donald Trump, of all people,
turning to the past in a new and really a little bit surprising way.
Instead of talking about what's great about America, making America great,
he's not talking about the 1950s when he grew up, but he's talking about the late 1890s.
