The New Yorker Festival | President Trump: Life As We May Know It

With Max Boot, Amy Davidson, Roger Stone, and Sean Wilentz. Moderated by Evan Osnos.

Max Boot is the Jeane J. Kirkpatrick Senior Fellow in National Security Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations. He has advised the Presidential campaigns of John McCain, Mitt Romney, and Marco Rubio on foreign policy and defense. He is the author of three books on military history, including “Savage Wars of Peace: Small Wars and the Rise of American Power” and “Invisible Armies: An Epic History of Guerilla Warfare from Ancient Times to the Present.” His new book, “The Road Not Taken: Edward Lansdale and the American Experience in Vietnam,” will soon be completed.

Amy Davidson became a staff writer in 2014, after more than a decade as an editor at The New Yorker. Davidson regularly writes the Comment feature in the magazine and a column for newyorker.com, which has recently focussed on the 2016 election.

Roger Stone is a best-selling author and political strategist. He has worked on the campaigns of several Republican Presidential candidates, including Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump. He is the editor of StoneColdTruth.com and the author of several books, including “The Man Who Killed Kennedy: The Case Against LBJ.”

Sean Wilentz is a writer and historian, and the George Henry Davis 1886 Professor of American History at Princeton University, where he has taught for thirty-seven years. A winner of the Bancroft Prize and a two-time Grammy Award nominee, Wilentz has written eight books on American history, politics, and culture, most recently “The Politicians and the Egalitarians: The Hidden History of American Politics,” which was published in May.

Evan Osnos has been a staff writer at The New Yorker since 2008. He won the 2014 National Book Award and was a finalist for the 2015 Pulitzer Prize in general nonfiction for “Age of Ambition: Chasing Fortune, Truth, and Faith in the New China,” parts of which first appeared in the magazine. He has written extensively on the 2016 Presidential election, including “The Fearful and the Frustrated,” about far-right supporters of Donald Trump, which appeared in the August 31, 2015, issue of the magazine.
