America’s Branding Crisis — with Heather Cox Richardson | Prof G Conversations

Heather Cox Richardson, historian and author of Letters from an American, joins Scott to explore how authoritarianism takes hold – not through coups, but within democratic systems. They discuss how the Republican Party masterfully rebranded itself as the party of patriotism, masculinity, and individualism, while Democrats failed to counter the narrative. Plus, they touch on national service, economic inequality, and the role of "love" in rebuilding a fractured America. Follow Professor Richardson, ‪@heathercoxrichardson‬.
