Is Donald Trump a 90s-era Democrat? This week’s guest, the estimable Batya Ungar-Sargon, argues that he might be just that. She joins the podcast for a fascinating conversation about her new book: Second Class: How the Elites Betrayed America’s Working Men and Women. Based on her in-depth conversations with working-class Americans across the country, we explore the plundering of the middle class, elite paternalism, and why the working class isn’t getting behind Biden. Stick around as Batya makes the case for why the party that focuses on the health care-immigration nexus can establish a ruling majority.
