https://www.youtube.com/watch/WSAl3p_ccp0 Heather Cox Richardson: The GOP No Longer Exists and It Looks Like the 1850s
Heather Cox Richardson, historian and author of the newsletter Letters from an American, joins Scott Galloway to discuss what the midterms could reveal about America’s political future—and why she sees echoes of the 1850s in today’s shifting coalitions.

She explains how concentrated wealth fuels political upheaval, why the backlash against billionaires could unite voters across party lines, and what Democrats would need to deliver if they win Congress. Plus, the case for a new era of trust busting, Elon Musk’s power, and why she’s watching JD Vance beyond Election Day.
