The Data Behind America's Political Anger

Jun 25, 2026 · 00:24:15

About This Episode

Former Clinton adviser Doug Sosnik joins Michael to unpack the data behind America's political upheaval. Drawing on his latest research, Sosnik argues that Donald Trump is a symptom—not the cause—of deeper economic and cultural forces reshaping the country. They discuss wealth inequality, the decline of upward mobility, the growing education divide, why voters increasingly reject the status quo, and what it all means for the 2026 midterms and the future of American politics.
