Trump’s Tactics: Harold Meyerson; BLM Victories: Jody Armour; “Collective”: Ella Taylor

Harold Meyerson argues that none of Trump’s tactics to hold on to the White House will succeed—the lawsuits are ridiculous, the proposals for Republican state legislatures to send their own Trump electors to Washington won’t work. But the fact that Trump got more votes than any Republican in history gives him a lot of power over the party. Also: the huge victories Black Lives Matter won at the polls in L.A. County: Jody Armour explains, starting with electing a progressive District Attorney, George Gascon. Jody’s new book is N*gga Theory: Race, Language, Unequal Justice, and the Law. And our TV critic Ella Taylor recommends “Collective,” a terrific documentary about corruption in Romania.
