Finish What We Started

Finish What We Started tells the story of the ordinary Americans driving the MAGA movement, who they are, where they came from, what motivates them, and what their movement means for the survival of American democracy.

Drawing on extensive, exclusive on-the-ground reporting and deepened by historical context, Isaac Arnsdorf combines critical and rigorous reporting with the intimacy and complexity of a novel.

The book provides a defining account of the movement since Donald Trump transformed American politics and offers insights into its radicalization and future implications for democracy.
