You're Fired

By Wisconsin Book Festival
*** TIME CHANGE *** Paul Begala has been called in to appear on CNN tomorrow evening so this event is being moved an hour earlier to 6:00 PM Central. Thank you for your understanding.
“You’re fired!” Donald Trump became famous bellowing those words in a make-believe boardroom. In November, tens of millions of Americans want to yell it right back at him. Yet Trump has seemed to almost defy the laws of political physics. Paul Begala, one of America’s greatest political talents, lays out the strategy that will defeat him and send him and his industrial-strength spray-on tan machine back to Mar-a-Lago. Paul Begala will discuss his new book, You're Fired, in conversation with David Maraniss, Associate Editor of The Washington Post. Before the event begins, you will see a countdown and the event image.
In You're Fired, Paul Begala tells us how Trump uses division to distract from the actual reality of his record. Distraction, he argues, is Trump’s superpower. And this book is Kryptonite. In it, the man who helped elect Bill Clinton and re-elect Barack Obama, details:
The special weapons and tactics needed in the unconventional war against this most unconventional politician
How to drive a wedge—or, rather, a pickup truck—between Trump and many of his supporters, especially blue-collar workers and farmers
Where the votes to defeat Trump will come from, and how the Rising American Electorate can catch Trump flat-footed
How Democrats can run on issues ranging from Coronavirus and healthcare to the economy, as well as climate change and Trump’s long-term plan to dominate the federal judiciary
There is one chapter called simply, “This Chapter Will Beat Trump.” Find out why Begala is so confident and what issue he says will sink the Trumptanic
Full of memorable advice and Begala’s trademark wit, You're Fired focuses on the lessons we can learn from the party’s successes and failures—and the crucial tools Democrats need to beat Trump. On sale shortly before the DNC and RNC conventions, from the imprint leading the charge on Trump books such as Too Much and Never Enough andThe Room Where It Happened, this is the handbook everyone must read in the ramp up to the 2020 election.
