Dana Bash is CNN’s chief political correspondent and the anchor and host of Sunday morning’s State of the Union, serving as the network’s lead reporter covering campaigns and Congress. She regularly acts as a moderator for CNN’s political town hall specials and debates, including CNN’s first debate of the 2020 election cycle in Detroit. She has conducted sit-down interviews with major players in the political sphere during 2016, including Donald Trump, Senators Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and Bernie Sanders, and Governors Jeb Bush and John Kasich. Her debut book America's Deadliest Election: The Cautionary Tale of the Most Violent Election in American History (written with David Fisher) went on sale earlier this month and was an instant New York Times bestseller.
Dana and I chat about the debates, her interview with Kamala Harris, and her critically-acclaimed new book about the 1872 Louisiana Gubernatorial election, the Constitutional crisis that occurred four years later in the presidential election, and the striking similarities to the current political landscape. We also discuss her emotional journey last year to the Auschwitz concentration camp with her colleague Wolf Blitzer, her family's history with the Holocaust, and the post-October-7th rise in antisemitism and hate crimes.
