ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
The summer of 2024 was the most consequential in recent US political history. Incumbent president Joe Biden ended his campaign for re-election, instead endorsing current vice president, Kamala Harris. Just a few days prior, three-time Republican nominee Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt at a Pennsylvania rally. Now, with just two months until election day, there is still all to play for.
For the first episode in ECFR’s Swamp Chronicles series, Aslı Aydıntaşbaş and Jeremy Shapiro welcome Robert Kagan, Stephen & Barbara Friedman senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, to discuss the underlying forces within Donald Trump’s Republican Party. What are the historic roots of his ‘MAGA’ movement? What would a Trump victory mean for American democracy, and democracy throughout the world? And will Trumpism outlive Trump?
