Trump inauguration speech was ‘angriest ever’ – professor

An expert in US politics has claimed President Donald Trump’s inauguration speech was the “angriest� he had ever heard.

Dr Mike Cornfield, associate professor of Political Management at the George Washington University, told Âé¶¹Éç Radio 5 live's Anna Foster he thought President Trump's address was “extraordinary for a man who did not win the popular vote and who did not fill this mallâ€�.

“It was confrontational, particularly angry at everyone in Washington D.C., everyone who is a part of established government and system,� he said. “It was vintage populism: I am the voice of the people, we will get the job done and to heck with the rest of you.�
