Tune in tomorrow to join a special episode of Conversations with pundit and author Molly Jong-Fast.
Jong-Fast says Trump has become a template for a whole planet full of bad-faith actors and wannabe strongmen. Before becoming the host of a popular podcast with Rick Wilson of @ProjectLincoln, Jong-Fast wrote about her fascinating and unusual life as daughter of celebrity author Erica Jong (Fear of Flying).
An editor-at-large for the Daily Beast, Jong-Fast’s writing has also appeared in The Atlantic, Playboy, Vogue, the Bulwark and Glamour. She currently co-hosts the podcast The New Abnormal, supplying “blunt truth and dark humour for a world in chaos.”
Jong-Fast will join Linda Solomon Wood, editor-in-chief of Canada’s National Observer, for a conversation on voting during a pandemic, the suburban voter base that Trump is alienating and what a Joe Biden presidency could look like. With her close pulse on this historic election, what has it been like for Jong-Fast to write about the Trump administration in such a divisive time?
