Brian Tyler Cohen and Don Lemon: How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World

from 92NY Talks

What will political power look like after the Trump era? Brian Tyler Cohen — #1 New York Times-bestselling author, MSNBC contributor, and creator of one of the most-watched independent political platforms in the country — joins us for a conversation with Don Lemon about his new book, The Day After: How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World. Time and again, Donald Trump has seemingly changed the laws of political gravity — and in order to wield power in the years ahead, Brian Tyler Cohen argues, progressives and Democrats need to learn how to adapt to a new political reality. In The Day After, he offers an argument for how progressives should position themselves after the Trump presidency — analyzing how Democrats have failed to use their power effectively in the Trump era, and what he sees as the stakes for American democracy in the years ahead. Brian Tyler Cohen doesn't just comment on politics — he dissects the machinery behind it. A leading progressive voice in digital media, he has built a following of millions by translating the chaos of the political moment into clear, unsparing analysis. In a conversation with Don Lemon — another leading progressive voice of dissent in the Trump era — hear how Democrats can wield power at every level of the government: from the executive branch to the courts to economic policy, voting rights, climate action and beyond. How are elections won — and what should governing look like after? Join Cohen and Lemon for a timely conversation about how the Trump era and a new media landscape have transformed political influence and public debate.
