  • Trump Takes America (with Matthew D. Taylor)
    2024/11/08

    Donald Trump wins the 2024 election with numbers we haven't seen in decades from a Republican President-elect. His victory was a decisive mandate from voters to enact his policies and a resounding rebuke of Kamala Harris, although it may be more about Joe Biden.

    Grant breaks down who voted for Trump, what this means about our ideas about the way American politics look now and what happens next.

    Grant also talks to Matthew Taylor (@TaylorMatthewD) from the Institute for Islamic, Christian and Jewish studies and the author of the book The Violent Take It By Force. They talk about how Christian Nationalism helped fuel Trump's rise and power since 2016 and how it will shape the next Trump presidency.
