A very special episode of Washington Week with The Atlantic aired Friday, devoted entirely to the magazine’s anti-Trump issue, already pushed on the PBS NewsHour. A liberal dream team (nightmare?) of Atlantic magazine staff joined editor Jeffrey Goldberg to take over the taxpayer-supported airwaves fretting over a potential second term for Trump.
He touted their panic-button issue: “We just published a special issue of The Atlantic devoted to answering the question, what will happen if Trump wins? In this issue, 24 of our writers look at Trump’s record in domestic and foreign policy, the economy and national security.”
He made jokey hints about the dangers of Trump throughout his introduction.
Goldberg: It’s an Atlantic takeover! We finally — we’ve launched a coup! And here we are. So, yes, we have this issue. I hope you at home have a copy of this….
