How did Donald Trump go from political defeat and the aftermath of January 6 to a second term in the White House? Historian Victor Davis Hanson discusses his latest book, The Counter-Revolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA Movement. Hanson argues that the prosecutions of Trump strengthened his candidacy, evidenced by his gains among Black and Hispanic male voters. Hanson also explains why prominent (and former Democratic) Silicon Valley figures rallied behind him. Hanson delves into Trump’s second-term agenda, from immigration enforcement to his confrontation with universities, the media, and other institutions Hanson sees as centers of progressive power.
Stay tuned for Part 2, in which Victor discusses Trump’s promise to remake Washington and restore American strength, the war in Iran, and his own health.
