Damon Linker

Dirty Moderate with Adam Epstein

Damon Linker, is a writer for the Atlantic and is a senior lecturer in political science at the University of Pennsylvania. He also writes the Substack newsletter “Notes from the Middleground” and is an Open Society Project senior fellow at the Niskanen Center.

Damon joins Adam to discuss his latest article for the Atlantic, "The Dead-Enders of the Reagan-Era GOP" in which Damon argues that Mike Pence's non-endorsement of Donald Trump only underlines how irrevocably the Republican Party has left traditional conservatism behind and embraces populism.

Don’t miss Damon’s conversation with Adam about how a full on MAGA populist party not only renders the party of Lincoln ideologically impotent but represents a clear and present danger to our republic.
