"How 'Stop the Steal' Captured the American Right" is this week's New York Times Magazine cover story. And author Charles Homans is my guest on this brand new episode of the "Reliable Sources" podcast.

Homans describes how the "Steal" movement predates Trump and will outlast him. In short, this strain of right-wing thinking is so much bigger than Trump and 1/6. Homans told me about his interviews with Trump supporters at rallies; why the conversations "quickly shift from 'stolen election' to abortion or Covid lockdowns;" and what might happen to "democratic trust in the system one step down the road."
