All the research papers in this collection draw on the online C-SPAN Video Library (part of the C-SPAN Archives), which contains all of C-SPAN network’s TV content since 1987, covering proceedings of the House of Representatives and the Senate, including debates, hearings, floor speeches, and other proceedings. Contributors in political science, history, environmental studies, communication, and rhetoric highlight the use of the C-SPAN Archives in research for understanding American politics and democracy. This volume draws on material from the Archives to analyze Trump’s presidency. Papers are grouped in sections on C-SPAN and historical research, using the C-SPAN Video Library to study Congressional rhetoric, and C-SPAN in critical scholarship. Some topics are Trump’s rhetoric on climate change, nonverbal cues in Congressional speeches, judicial activism and the constitutive function of law in the Trump era, and oral histories of African Americans who support Trump.

C-SPAN is the network of record for US political affairs, broadcasting live gavel-to-gavel proceedings of the House of Representatives and the Senate, and to other forums where public policy is discussed, debated, and decided––without editing, commentary, or analysis and with a balanced presentation of points of view.
The C-SPAN Archives, located adjacent to Purdue University, is the home of the online C-SPAN Video Library. The Archives has recorded all of C-SPAN's television content since 1987. Extensive indexing, captioning, and other enhanced online features provide researchers, policy analysts, students, teachers, and public officials with an unparalleled chronological and internally cross-referenced record for deeper study.
