Ezra Klein: Trump’s threat to democracy is REAL. Here’s what Dems must do | Why Is This Happening?

Video Description

Why has America's 20th century vision of innovation and opportunity transformed into a stagnant and stunted dystopian reality? Our guest this week claims that “the crisis that’s clicking into focus now has been building for decades” and it’s all because we haven’t been following building enough. Ezra Klein is host of The Ezra Klein Show podcast, a columnist for New York Times Opinion and the author of “Abundance,” which he co-wrote with Derek Thompson. He joins WITHpod to discuss how liberals have failed on progress, how they can shift gears in MAGA America, and how we might reimagine abundance for everyone. “Why Is This Happening?” is produced by Doni Holloway and Brendan O’Melia, engineered by Bob Mallory and features music by Eddie Cooper. Aisha Turner is the Executive Producer of MSNBC Audio. New episodes come out every Tuesday. Share your thoughts by using #WITHpod.
