Comedy writer Armando Iannucci and journalist Helen Lewis decode
the utterly baffling world of political language.

This week, Trump has made his way back to the White House, but
will he Make America Great Again? What does that phrase really
mean? And how did it become the enduring political message of our
times?

Helen and Armando examine how political reporters struggle to get
answers, and what the effect of this election campaign will have
on political language for years to come.

A longer version, where Helen theorises on wrestling's impact on
the world of politics, and Armando confesses the role he played
in securing Trump's victory, is available on BBC Sounds
