Ralph Nader welcomes Professor M. Steven Fish, political scientist and author of Comeback: Routing Trumpism, Reclaiming the Nation, and Restoring Democracy’s Edge, who argues that winning elections is about more than policy positions; it’s about projecting strength and dominance, and Donald Trump plays that game better than his Democratic rivals. Plus, former Navy Petty Officer Phil Tourney, who was aboard the USS Liberty when it was attacked and nearly sunk by Israeli fighter planes and torpedo boats during the Six Day War in 1967, tells us why 57 years later, he still fights for accountability.
M. Steven Fish is a comparative political scientist at the University of California, Berkeley who specializes in democracy and authoritarianism, religion and politics, and constitutional systems and national legislatures. He writes and comments extensively on international affairs and the rising challenges to democracy in the United States and around the world, and he has published commentary in the Washington Post, the New York Times, and Foreign Policy, among other publications.
Phil Tourney is President of The USS Liberty Veterans Association, which was established to provide support for survivors of the attack. The efforts of the LVA are also focused on ensuring the US government finally conducts the public investigation of the attack on the USS Liberty.
