Political strategist and CNN contributor Paul Begala talks about how Donald Trump won the White House in 2016, the state of the national electorate today, lessons we can learn from previous presidents, and what it will take for Joe Biden to defeat President Trump in November -- all topics he writes about in his new book, “You’re Fired: The Perfect Guide to Beating Donald Trump.”

A Conversation with Paul Begala

When President Lyndon Baines Johnson dedicated his presidential library in 1971, he declared, "It's all here, the story of our time—with the bark off." Since then, in keeping with his vision, the LBJ Library has been a forum for the biggest names and best minds of our day to address the issues of our time.
 
This season of With the Bark Off offers a critical examination of the 45 men who have led our nation and the evolution of America’s highest office. Preeminent historians and authors take us behind-the-scenes and share revealing insights on presidents from George Washington to Joe Biden.
 
With the Bark Off is a production of the LBJ Foundation and each biweekly episode will be hosted by Mark A. Lawrence, Director of the LBJ Presidential Library, author, and prominent scholar on American politics and foreign policy; or Mark K. Updegrove, President and CEO of the LBJ Foundation, author, and ABC News presidential historian.
