    The Republican Party's Descent Into the Dark Ages

    It’s hard to boil down all the ways the Trump campaign and presidency have reshaped American political norms into a single conceptual frame. But in his new, best-selling book Devil’s Bargain: Steve Bannon, Donald Trump, and The Storming of the Presidency, Businessweek’s Joshua Green has done just that.

The question now is what anti-Trump forces can do to make accountability more likely. Greg Sargent, author of the Washington Post’s Plum Line blog joined us by phone to discuss these issues and more.
