New York journalists discuss "the 2024 election" at Clinton School, as reported by The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.
In a captivating event at the Clinton School of Public Service, journalists Josh Dawsey of The Wall Street Journal and Tyler Pager of The New York Times spoke about their co-authored book, "2024: How Trump Retook the White House and the Democrats Lost America."
The book, co-written with Isaac Arnsdorf, senior White House reporter at The Washington Post, delves into the political landscape of the United States, beginning with the FBI's search of Mar-a-Lago for classified documents in August 2022.
Judd Deere, a former deputy press secretary under Trump, and James L. "Skip" Rutherford III, dean emeritus at the Clinton School, were among the attendees. Victoria M. DeFrancesco Soto, dean of the Clinton School, emphasised the importance of understanding the current political climate, especially with the 2026 midterm elections approaching.
Patrick Newton, director of marketing and communications at the school, expressed hope that audience members would develop a desire to read the book. He mentioned that the event was held in a nonpartisan environment that encourages discussion, engagement, and information.
Tyler Pager expressed satisfaction with the connection their book is making with a larger audience. He found it fascinating to see the lives of these staff members before working with them on a day-to-day basis. Pager spent his first trip to Arkansas exploring the William J. Clinton Presidential Library and Museum.
Josh Dawsey, who last visited Arkansas in 2019, where he spoke at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, shared his insights from the book. Thomas Franklin "Mack" McLarty III, a former chief of staff under former President Bill Clinton, was also in attendance.
Pager stated that it takes plenty of work and preparation to come to an event in person. He enjoyed seeing figures from the Biden and Harris campaigns who were part of Clinton's campaign and White House staff.
Judd Deere expressed appreciation for the Clinton School and Clinton Library hosting the event as part of the book tour. He expressed hope that the event would foster a deeper understanding of the political climate and the events leading up to the 2024 elections. Approximately 215 community members attended the event.
