Summary

Today on the show, Fareed is joined by an expert panel to break down the results of Tuesday’s presidential election. New York Times opinion columnist Ezra Klein and Atlantic staff writer David Frum discuss the realignment of the American electorate that led to a sweeping Trump victory, and what Democrats need to do to build a durable and lasting coalition moving forward. Next, Oren Cass, founder and chief economist at the conservative think tank American Compass, joins the show to discuss the populist turn within the Republican Party, and what the GOP’s agenda may look like under a second Trump presidency. Finally, The Economist editor-in-chief Zanny Minton Beddoes speaks with Fareed about the impact of the US election on the rest of the world, from Mexico to China, the Middle East to Ukraine and the rest of Europe. GUESTS: Ezra Klein (@ezraklein); David Frum (@davidfrum); Oren Cass (@oren_cass); Zanny Minton Beddoes (@zannymb) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
