The Ezra Klein Show - Ezra Klein and Jon Favreau on How the Democrats Found Their Fight [View all]
The government shutdown is the Democrats’ first big strategic bet of Trump’s term.
Not everyone in the party agreed that shutting down the government was the right move or that health care was the right message. So why did they ultimately pick this fight? What are the risks? And what could Democrats learn here that might help shape their strategy for the midterms and beyond?
Jon Favreau, a former Obama speechwriter and a current co-host of “Pod Save America,” joins me to discuss.
