Republican political strategist Rick Wilson has spent his career working to defeat Democrats in elections across the country. Now, the self-described “old school conservative” says he has the formula for a successful Democratic campaign against President Trump. His new book “Running Against the Devil” gives a chilling warning against a second term for Trump and provides a strategy to “save” the Democratic Party by encouraging a focus on winning rather than progressive ideology. Wilson joins Forum to talk about the book and his blueprint for a Democratic presidential victory in 2020.

Guests:

Rick Wilson, republican media strategist; author, "Running Against the Devil: A Plot to Save American from Trump--and Democrats from Themselves"
