HIGHLIGHTS
This week staff reporter Daniel Walters straps on some hip waders and slogs into the murk of the 2020 Election. Donald Trump, despite losing by more than 5 million votes, still hasn’t conceded the race to Joe Biden (as of press time), and he’s shown little interest in loosening his grip on Republicans or his friends at Fox News. Regardless, his impact on American life will reverberate for years. As Idaho Congressman Russ Fulcher — a big booster of the president — tells us, “Trump has stirred the pot so much that a bunch of crap is coming up from the bottom. And we’re finally seeing it.” Democrats, meanwhile, are doing some soul searching of their own, having underperformed in down-ballot races across the country. Walters sorts it all out beginning in this week’s issue, hitting newsstands today.
