Protests across Europe reflect growing frustration over affordability and government inaction. Chris Cuomo argues affordability is also the driving force behind growing frustration in America, despite President Donald Trump’s claims about the protests. With health care, college tuition and credit card debt costing Americans far more than people in France, could similar protests happen here? Democratic strategist Chris Hahn and Republican strategist Horace Cooper debate.

Hanauer, host of the “Pitchfork Economics” podcast, joins “CUOMO” to discuss.
