Featuring a foreword by Jonathan V. Last.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter Donald Trump won the 2024 election, Sarah Longwell did what she's done nearly every week for the past eight years: She sat down with voters. She conducted hundreds of focus groups, listening to thousands of ordinary Americans--Republicans, Democrats, and the politically homeless--with the goal of understanding politics through the eyes of the people who will decide our country's future. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAmerican voters, and what they want for their country, are at the heart of \u003ci\u003eHow to Eat an Elephant\u003c\/i\u003e. Longwell, the founder of The Bulwark and one of the sharpest political communicators of her generation, lays out the playbook for building a coalition big enough, bold enough, and tough enough to defeat authoritarian populism for good. Not with a single election. Not by doing another poll or debating the benefits of being more progressive or more moderate, but by building something new: A modern pro-democracy movement that can create its own communications infrastructure--just like the right has done for decades--achieve narrative dominance, elevate more compelling leaders, and talk to voters like adults. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDrawing on her own unlikely political journey from a lesbian Republican operative to the vanguard of the anti-MAGA movement, Longwell delivers a book that is equal parts war manual and pep talk--with her personal and professional story woven throughout. With her trademark bluntness and humor, she explains exactly how we got here and, more importantly, what we must build next--all while directly quoting the most important but overlooked people in the country: the voters themselves. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eShe answers the question: How \u003ci\u003edo\u003c\/i\u003e you eat an elephant? One voter at a time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sarah Longwell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 125046417X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250464170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martin's Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.25h x 5.38w x 1.00d","brand":"Sarah Longwell","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48448723779839,"sku":"9781250464170","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1ad24437-3012-4f30-81e2-61abbb84f383.jpg?v=1777260210","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/how-to-eat-an-elephant-sarah-longwell-9781250464170","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
