With Democrats sweeping the House and Senate in the midterms last night, I’m sitting down with classicist and military historian Victor Davis Hanson to get his take on the results and what they mean for the Trump administration, the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement, and the 2028 elections.

Hanson is the author of multiple bestselling books, including most recently, “The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA Movement.”
