My guest today is Lanny Davis. Lanny became a household name in the late 1990s as a Special Counsel to President Bill Clinton during the Monica Lewinsky scandal and was a spokesperson for the President and the White House on matters concerning legal issues. Lanny is currently a lawyer, crisis manager, consultant, and author providing strategic counsel to clients under scrutiny on crisis management and legal issues by combining legal, media, and political strategies. Lanny is also a regular television commentator and a political and legal analyst for MSNBC, CNN, CNBC, and network TV news programs.
At the time of this interview, Premise organized polling centered around the upcoming 2024 presidential election. The intent is to collect data tracking presidential candidates' polling numbers on a range of topics that are potentially important to election results.
