Lawrence Lessig On Why Donald Trump Is Good For Democracy - Interview w/ Cenk Uygur (edited)

Harvard Law Professor and longtime political activist Lawrence Lessig is running for President of the United States for one reason: to end the corrupting influence of money on politics. In this interview with The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur, Lessig explains why Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy helps shine a light on the corrosive effect money has on our political system, and why he welcomes Trump’s participation in the electoral process (while acknowledging that an actual Trump presidency would be a complete disaster).
