Product Description -
Even before the cataclysmic 2016 US election, the Democratic Party had long been at war with itself—yet Joe Biden's narrow victory in 2020 bridged the divide. Facing the dire threat of a second Trump administration, Democrats forged an unlikely but effective coalition that stalled Trumpism at the ballot box and enacted a raft of consequential legislation. But how long can the uneasy peace hold and can Biden win again? The Truce is a definitive history of a half-decade of upheaval in the Democratic Party in which a new generation aggressively pursued their progressive ideals while the powerful, centrist establishment adapted to remain in command. Journalists Hunter Walker and Luppe B Luppen illuminate this story of backroom manoeuvring and political strategy with new revelations about pivotal events and exclusive, on-the-record comments from activists, campaign operatives, members of Congress, Biden White House aides, Senator Bernie Sanders and former president Barack Obama.  The Truce explores the major fault lines that define politics today and asks big questions about the future of the party. Will economic or social justice hold primacy at the top of the Democratic agenda? Who will lead the major wings of the party after defining figures, Biden and Sanders, exit the stage? The Truce surveys the major shifts underway, from the rise of the Squad and new Democratic leadership in the House to a complete overhaul of the primary process. By digging into the divide between left and centre, Walker and Luppen expose the creeping generational and political tensions that Biden has—for the moment—kept at bay. An engrossing work and a surprising page-turner, The Truce grapples with the dangers that threaten American democracy and the complicated cast of characters who are trying to save it.
