In the tradition of Shattered and Game Change, Washington Post
columnist Jennifer Rubin provides an insider's look at how women
across the political spectrum carried a revolution to the ballot
box and defeated Donald Trump, based on interviews with key figures
such as Kamala Harris, Amy Klobuchar, Stacey Abrams, Nancy Pelosi,
and many more. In a compelling narrative, bookended by Donald
Trump's 2016 victory and his 2020 defeat, Rubin delivers an
absorbing analysis of the women's counter-Trump revolution.
Resistance tracks a set of dynamic women voters, activists and
politicians who rose up when Donald Trump took the White House and
fundamentally changed the political landscape. From the first
Women's March the day after Trump's inauguration to the Blue Wave
in the 2018 midterms to the flood of female presidential candidates
in 2020 to the inauguration of Kamala Harris, women from across the
ideological spectrum entered the political arena and became
energized in a way America had not witnessed in decades. They
marched, they organized, they donated vast sums of cash, they ran
for office, they made new alliances. And they defeated Donald
Trump. Democratic women candidates learned that they could win in
large numbers, even in red districts. Black women voters in 2020
surged in Georgia and in suburbs in key swing states. Women across
the country voted in greater numbers than in any previous election,
flipped the Senate, and ensured victory for the first female Vice
President in the nation's history. While Democrats recorded
impressive victories, Republican women delivered critical victories
of their own. From the White House to Congress, from activists to
protestors, from liberals to conservatives, Resistance delivers the
first comprehensive portrait of women's historic political surge
provoked by the horror of President Trump. This is the indelible
story of how American women transformed their own lives, vanquished
Trump, secured unprecedented positions of power and redefined US
politics decades to come. Resistance is essential reading for
understanding the most important election in American history and
the role women played in redesigning modern politics.
