This week on the Morning Shift, we’re examining what’s next for various groups now that Donald Trump will be the 45th President of the United States. 

We speak to millennials of all political stripes about what a Trump presidency means to them and how it will affect how they engage politically. Mainstream Republican Matt Foldi, Trump supporter Nick Oviatt and Bernie-turned-Hillary backer Jessica Disu join our talk, and we also hear from listeners who supported third-party candidates as well as the Democratic and Republican nominees.
