Political Influencers: Left vs. Right

My friend Emily Amick used to work on Capitol Hill; now, she’s a political influencer with a journalism degree. She recently did a deep dive into the world of political influencers (right vs. left). Emily also wrote Democracy In Retrograde, which you can pre-order here with a discount by EOD March 26th (it comes out April 28th). Given the increased role that political influencers are playing in news and campaigns — especially in congressional primaries — I wanted to pick Emily’s brain on it. Much of what she shared was surprising and I definitely learned a lot. Check it out, and make sure to subscribe to her Substack. (And, as always, if you want to support my work, you can become a paying subscriber of Politics Made Easy or buy What Does the Constitution Actually Say? — or its kids version — wherever books are sold.)
