Maine’s top election official has removed former President Donald Trump from the state’s 2024 primary ballot, in a surprising decision based on the 14th Amendment’s “insurrectionist ban.” Secretary of State Shenna Bellows talks about this decision and how she came to it. And Michael Eric Dyson, distinguished professor of African American and Diaspora Studies at Vanderbilt University and co-author of “Unequal: A Story of America" talks about Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley's comments on slavery and the Civil War.
