Summary
On November 9, 2016, Dan Pfeiffer woke up like most in the world, wondering WTF just happened. How had Donald Trump won the White House? How had a decent and thoughtful president been succeeded by a buffoonish reality TV star, and what do we do now? Instead of throwing away his phone and moving to another country (which were his first and second thoughts), Pfeiffer decided to tell the surreal story, recounting how Barack Obama navigated the insane political forces that created Trump, explaining why everyone 2016 wrong, and offering a path for where Democrats go from here. Pfeiffer was one of Obama's fist hires when he decided to run for president and was at his side through two presidential campaigns and six years in the White House. Using never-before-heard stories and behind-the-scenes anecdotes. Yes we (still) can examines how Obama succeeded despite Twitter trolls, Fox News (and their fake news), and a Republican Party that had lost its collective mind
