Defending Democracy, 2018 & Beyond feat. Robby Mook

Political parties and campaigns are a critical part of American democracy. Our parties are complicated, multi-faceted, and at times, downright confounding. To better understand some of the promise and perils of political parties and campaigns, This Week in Dystopia is joined by someone who knows the Democratic party and process of campaigning intimately. Host Chris Robichaud invites former Clinton Campaign Manager Robby Mook, now a fellow at Harvard Kennedy School’s Belfer Center and CNN political commentator, to discuss campaign cybersecurity, the generic ballot, the outlook for the 2018 election cycle, and more.
