Understanding the Elections

Donald Trump has been elected president of the United States — again.

For better or for worse, this is the outcome America wanted. His victory was clear, convincing, and comprehensive, in both the electoral college and, apparently, the popular vote.

To help explain where we are, how we got here, what we should be looking for in years to come, I asked two veteran political strategists to join me on the podcast: Matt Brooks, CEO of both the Republican Jewish Coalition and the Jewish Policy Center, and Mark Mellman, president of the Democratic Majority for Israel and CEO of the Mellman Group, which has been cited as the country's most accurate campaign polling firm.

I hope you'll tune in to hear our discussion wherever you get your podcasts.
