In their January/February 2024 issue - If Trump Wins - the staff of The Atlantic write about the threat a second term poses to American democracy. In this episode, we hear from Mark Leibovich, Helen Lewis, and Jennifer Senior about the impact a Trump presidency would have on the U.S. population. If Trump wins again, perhaps we can all finally abandon the delusion that his supporters do not represent the true America, Mark Leibovich writes in 'This is Who We Are'. In 'The Left Can't Afford to Go Mad', Helen Lewis argues that the Trump years sent many liberals completely around the bend. Just when the country needed clear and focused opposition to Trump's abuses, the left succumbed to purity spirals. It can't afford to do so again. Finally, Jennifer Senior asks, 'What Will Happen to the American Psyche if Trump is Re-elected?'. Say what you want about Joe Biden—he's allowed Americans to go days at a time without remembering he's there.
