Joan is joined by Amy Parnes, who discusses her new book, "Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House," co-authored with Jonathan Allen.
The book covers the unprecedented 2024 presidential election, highlighting Joe Biden's faltering debate performance, which led to his dropping out of the race, and Kamala Harris's swift rise. Parnes reveals that Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi had doubts about Harris's viability as a candidate. The book also delves into Trump's campaign dynamics, including his vice presidential pick and the impact of the Pennsylvania assassination attempt on his campaign. Parnes notes that the book serves as a lesson for future campaigns, emphasizing the importance of learning from past mistakes.
