Alastair Campbell on Why JD Vance is Britain's Most Hated Man & How Dems Can Rise From the Dead
Donald Trump is looking pretty invincible right now, and it's easy to lose hope that Democrats will ever be able to regain power. But back in the '90s, liberals in Britain were in a similar predicament. Alastair Campbell, right hand man to former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair and co-host of the podcast "The Rest Is Politics," joins Tommy to discuss how the Labour Party vanquished the iron grip of Thatcherism, the importance of party rebranding, and how Democrats can reclaim populism in the age of Trump.

At a time when it’s increasingly easy to feel cynical or hopeless, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor have created a place where people can have sane conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire action. In 2017 they started Crooked with Pod Save America—a no-bullshit conversation about politics. Since then, we continue to add shows, voices, and opportunities for activism, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world. That’s it. End of mission.

Great interview with @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social on @podsaveamerica.crooked.com youtu.be/EWfN7UYkmXM?...
youtu.be/EWfN7UYkmXM?... This is what I've been saying for years, the strategy of the dems is very stupid. These old hat democrats have to go and the party needs a fundamental change. People hate them because they can't relate to them. They don't make themselves relatable at all.
I just spent a fascinating hour watching this video. Alastair Campbell talks a lot of sense: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWfN...
I must’ve seen 50 podcasts on «Where should the Democratic Party go from here?» and imo this is the most sensible conversation I’ve heard so far. So either: 1. I’m biased towards a European perspective. Or 2. Alistair Cambell has the benefit of an outside view, together with his own experience.
Listening to this, never liked Alastair Campbell much back in the day, but he comes across thoughtful and measured. Interesting UK perspective on what's going on across the pond. youtu.be/EWfN7UYkmXM?...
