Politics, Elections and Democracy in an Age of Tribalism and Pandemic

Norman Ornstein is a political scientist and resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative Washington D.C. think tank. He will discuss the origins and implications of political divisions in the U.S., including race, education and economics, how they are connected to Trump and “Trumpism,” what challenges we face in the U.S. conducting a fair election during this stressful time, and what we can expect after the November 3 election.
