Summary

Will Saletan has a story to tell: It’s about what’s happened to the United States since Donald Trump began his rise to power eight years ago. It’s about authoritarianism in our own country. But it's not a story about Trump. It’s about his collaborators, and in particular, one collaborator: Senator Lindsey Graham. This special summer podcast series will explain what happened to Graham, and how the story of his gradual corruption can help us to understand how an entire political party, and half of our country, fell under the sway of a candidate, and then a president, who openly attacks democracy, the Constitution, and the rule of law. "The Corruption of Lindsey Graham" starts July 3. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
