Historian, professor, and prolific substack creator Heather Cox Richardson joins Maggie for another extremely special episode digging into how history informs the present. Today, she and Maggie tackle the staggering stakes of this cycle's presidential election. From an economy that works for all of us to the fate of democracy, it's all on the line. It seems every day brings new atrocities that should fully disqualify Trump from ever holding any office. Yet here we are, with this candidate remaining horrifically "viable". Thankfully, endorsements roll in each hour for Kamala Harris. She is the only candidate in this race with the experience and temperament to lead this nation. In a historic move, The Atlantic formally endorsed Harris this week. This marks only the 5th time in over 150 years that they have endorsed a candidate.

So what IS Trump's supposed economic policy? And what historical context do we have by which to judge it? Tune in for an engaging conversation!
