The Red And The Blue: The 1990s And The Birth Of Political Tribalism

"Even before the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation hearings, I’ve had a growing suspicion that the United States is not only reliving 1990s politics, but unexpectedly reaping political seeds sown two decades ago. Steve Kornacki confirms this in his entertaining history of the rise of Bill Clinton, Newt Gingrich and tribal partisan politics as we know it today. The book combines blow-by-blow recaps of political battles such as the 1992 presidential election with smart analysis about how confrontational and oppositional politics became the norm."
