Democrats go into November’s midterms hoping to regain the US House and Senate. Polls suggest the Democrats are currently ahead, but is this because of Trump’s low approval ratings rather than the popularity of the Democratic Party itself? And after losing to Donald Trump in both 2016 and 2024, what lessons have the Democrats learned for the future direction of the party, and how much of a litmus test is the topic of Israel for future candidates? Mehdi Hasan goes Head to Head with Neera Tanden, who held senior roles in the Clinton, Obama and Biden administrations and worked on Hillary Clinton’s Senate and presidential campaigns. She is CEO and president of the Center for American Progress think tank. Presenter: Mehdi Hasan Joining the discussion are: Danielle Moodie – Co-host, Democracy-Ish Podcast and editor of the DAM Digest on Substack Yemisi Egbewole – Former chief-of-staff, Biden White House Press Office Reed Galen – Co-founder, The Lincoln Project, and founder of CivicForum.org Our socials: instagram.com
