Join BigTentUSA on Tuesday, September 1 at 12 pm ET for a fascinating conversation with Anthony Scaramucci, author of “All the Wrong Moves: How Three Catastrophic Decisions Led to the Rise of Trump,” and moderated by President of The Union and co-founder of The Lincoln Project, Reed Galen.
Drawing on Scaramucci’s firsthand experience in politics and his unique perspective on the forces behind Trump’s rise, the conversation will explore how a series of consequential decisions created the conditions for a dramatic shift in the Republican Party and American politics.
