Tressie McMillan Cottom – Identity Politics and the 2024 Election | The Daily Show

From The Daily Show.

Award-winning author, sociologist, UNC professor, and New York Times opinion columnist Tressie McMillan Cottom sits down with Desi Lydic to unpack the outcome of the presidential election. They discuss Trump feeding on American anxieties, his simple and relatable story of empty hope, accepting identity politics as American politics, Trump as the embodiment of our masculinity crisis, and how Democrats can avoid playing the blame game and make peace with their voters’ identities and beliefs. #DailyShow #Trump #Election #President
