2024: How Trump Retook the White House with Maggie Haberman

Join Wall Street Journal’s Josh Dawsey, The New York Times’ Tyler Pager and The Washington Post’s Isaac Arnsdorf with Pulitzer Prize winner Maggie Haberman for a conversation about Donald Trump’s stunning political comeback, what it means for America, and Dawsey, Pager, and Arnsdorf’s new account of the election, 2024: How Trump Retook the White House and the Democrats Lost America.

“The whole world was against me, and I won,” said Donald Trump in an exclusive interview, ten days before his second inauguration. Nearly four years after Trump’s first turbulent presidency concluded in a violent attempt to overturn the election, he made a political comeback on a scale that stunned the nation. In 2024 — drawing on extraordinary access to the Trump, Biden, and Harris teams —Dawsey, Pager, and Arnsdorf bring us the definitive account of how he did it.

In a special conversation, hear these award-winning reporters talk to Maggie Haberman about how the 2024 election is influencing Trump’s policy — vindicating and emboldening him — and what it means for US democracy.

This talk was recorded on July 17th, 2025, at The 92nd Street Y, New York.
