On this episode of The Enemies List, Rick Wilson invites Kevin Kruse, a brilliant historian, to discuss the consequences of false history and how it has been used to manipulate the public. They explore the Republican Party's stance on race, from the Lincoln era to the Trump era, and how the GOP switched sides and lost their claim to being the "Party of Lincoln." They also discuss the (evil) genius of Roger Ailes and how he was able to turn a bland and milquetoast Nixon into a figure the South could rally around.
