But there is also a worrying erosion of a core democratic norm taking place on the left," Fareed says.   Next, Fareed is joined by Bob Woodward to discuss his new book "Fear: Trump in the White House." What are the biggest takeaways? How and why does he use confidential sources? How different is the Trump presidency compared with its predecessors? Fareed and Woodward discuss this and more.
