quote [ Look, Trump may screw up. Trump may get impeached, Trump is a fool. Trump-ism, is here to stay. This idea of populist nationalism. ]
Good interview, turned it on last night and couldn't turn it off. Whether you like the book or not, his arguments are still apt.

Then what you're really saying is that progressivism effectively has not future, as we remain inextricably locked in this two-party system. Even Frank recognizes this- I find it interesting that despite his really merciless takedown of what the Democrats have become, he remains a deep-down loyalist. He did after all end up voting for Clinton, in spite of everything. Watching this interview really gave me a better insight into where he's coming from- 'Listen Liberal' isn't a condemnation, it's intended as 'tough love'.
