Jonathan Karl: Donald Trump and His Campaign of Retribution

from Commonwealth Club of California Podcast · host Commonwealth Club of California

Election Day in the November 2024 presidential election was a pivotal moment in American history, and in his second term, President Trump has moved quickly to imprint his vision on the country and its policies. But before November 5, there was a whole campaign that was wild, unpredictable, fiery and violent. Jonathan Karl, ABC News chief Washington correspondent, calls it “the campaign that changed America.”  Karl, author of the bestsellers Tired of Winning, Betrayal, and Front Row at the Trump Show, returns to Commonwealth Club World Affairs for a special online-only discussion of the issues raised in his newest book, Retribution: Donald Trump and the Campaign That Changed America. Karl went behind the scenes to learn about what was happening in the White House and in the presidential campaigns during such shocking moments as President Biden’s withdrawal from the campaign, assassination attempts, Vice President Kamala Harris’ historic campaign, and more.  Don’t miss this program featuring one of our leading political journalists explaining how we got here—and what to expect from American politics in coming years.
