Can American democracy survive a full-scale assault?

Watch the complete conversation with David Nir of The Downballot and Aaron Rupar of Public Notice

America’s democratic institutions have been put to the test in recent years, but are they robust enough to withstand what’s coming next?

On Thursday, I joined with Aaron Rupar of Public Notice for a live discussion as part of Substack’s Election Dialogues series to examine the threats our democracy faces in the 2024 elections and beyond. We hit a wide variety of topics, including voter suppression, election subversion, and Donald Trump’s dark plans for a second term.

We also took questions from our viewers throughout the event, which was a huge success—a thousand people participated!

If you weren’t able to catch us live, though, you can watch a complete recording above. And to make sure you can tune in the next time we host another event like this, download the Substack app.
