SAN FRANCISCO


PETER BAKER AND SUSAN GLASSER: THE DONALD TRUMP WHITE HOUSE YEARS

In-person TicketsOnline-only Tickets

If you are not a member yet, now is the time to join our community and receive
the great benefits of membership. We are a group of people seeking truth,
insight and wisdom about the issues we face as individuals and as a society.
Please join! You can become a monthly sustaining member for just $10 a month.

From its chaotic beginning to the violent finale, the Trump presidency was
filled with moments ranging from the unthinkable to the deadly serious. That has
continued until these past several weeks, and the man at the center of all of
this could announce he is running for president again. That makes understanding
his presidency even more important today.

Veteran journalists Peter Baker and Susan Glasser chart the ambitious and
lasting history of the Trump presidency, drawing on unprecedented access to key
players from President Trump himself to cabinet officers, military generals, and
more. Based on these exclusive interviews, Baker and Glasser reveal moments both
tense and comical, from how close the United States got to nuclear war with
North Korea to whether Trump asked Japan’s prime minister to nominate him for a
Nobel Prize. They also explore the moral choices confronting those around
Trump—how they justified working for him and where they drew their lines.

Join us as Peter Baker and Susan Glasser return to the Club to discuss Donald
Trump's presidency and what a second term could mean for the country.
