Playbook: “As we say goodbye to 2024, a whipsaw of a political year, it’s worth stepping back in a newsletter obsessed with what’s driving the day and reflecting about what drove the year.”
“This year will be forever branded on the American political consciousness, one remembered for the first criminal conviction of a former president, not to mention half a billion dollars in court-ordered payments and a defamation case; two assassination attempts; the current president dropping out after a disastrous debate performance and endorsing his own running mate to succeed him on the ticket; and that same former president storming back to win 312 electoral votes.”
“If you’re like us, you haven’t caught your breath since the election, even as a new year promises — or threatens, depending on your point of view — to reveal itself.”
