President-elect Donald J. Trump has won a resounding victory
against Vice President Kamala Harris, and now, the man who promised
political retribution and said he may use the military to go after
“the enemy within” is headed back to the White House. Only this
time, there will be no guardrails — only enablers. In order to
understand the threat Trump poses to our democracy, Kara talks to
two historians who know a lot about the birth of American democracy
and the last time we came close to losing it: Dr. Lindsay
Chervinsky and Dr. Timothy Naftali. Chervinsky is a
presidential historian and the executive director of the George
Washington Presidential Library. Her newest book is Making the
Presidency, John Adams and the Precedents that Forged the Republic.
Naftali is a senior research scholar in the Faculty of
International and Public Affairs at Columbia University and the
former director of the federal Richard Nixon Presidential Library
and Museum. Questions? Comments? Email us at on@voxmedia.com or
