Yes We (Still) Can by Dan Pfeiffer Book Summary

From Obama's former communications director and current co-host of Pod Save America comes a colorful account of how politics, the media, and the Internet changed during the Obama presidency and how Democrats can fight back in the Trump era.

On November 9th, 2016, Dan Pfeiffer woke up like most of the world wondering WTF just happened. How had Donald Trump won the White House? How was it that a decent and thoughtful president had been succeeded by a buffoonish reality star, and what do we do now?

Instead of throwing away his phone and moving to another country (which were his first and second thoughts), Pfeiffer decided to tell this surreal story, recounting how Barack Obama navigated the insane political forces that created Trump, explaining why everyone got 2016 wrong, and offering a path for where Democrats go from here.

Pfeiffer was one of Obama's first hires when he decided to run for president, and was at his side through two presidential campaigns and six years in the White House. Using never-before-heard stories and behind-the-scenes anecdotes, Yes We (Still) Can examines how Obama succeeded despite Twitter trolls, Fox News (and their fake news), and a Republican Party that lost its collective mind.

An irreverent, no-BS take on the crazy politics of our time, Yes We (Still) Can is a must-read for everyone who is disturbed by Trump, misses Obama, and is marching, calling, and hoping for a better future for the country.

A hopeful and honest message. Great read, no filler, just great stories and thoughts.

Pre-ordered!. Can’t wait to read this!

Read this book!. Love Obama, love Crooked Media and now I love Dan Pfeiffer. Was worried that another book about politics would be a slog but I couldn’t stop reading. Informative, inspiring and funny ... with cool stories and intriguing footnotes.

Thank You. Dear Dan Pfeiffer: It’s been a dark couple of weeks but this book helps light the way. My favorite line was when you last spoke to the president. “Then he said, “Maybe I am just looking for a silver lining, but I am hopeful that this will be the clarifying event that will show the public the two different visions for the country.” Excerpt From Yes We (Still) Can Dan Pfeiffer

Great Read. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I found it to be insightful, cautionary, optimistic, and, at times, laugh out loud funny. While it was a sad reminder of the lost integrity and dignity of the presidency, it was also a reminder that we can do better. Dan helps lay out the hard learned lessons of the past and provides a path forward for the next generation of leaders in this country.

Yes we (still) can. Who is this guy? Here is his blog from 2009. Perhaps 9 years passing should shed some light on his agenda. “Reality Check: For Opponents, It Was Never About the Bill Posted by Dan Pfeiffer on December 24, 2009 at 12:50 PM EST Today’s Republican talking point of the day is that the historic health reform bill passed today represents the first major piece of social legislation to be passed without a single vote from across the aisle. Well that may be true. But it’s not a commentary on this bill. It’s a commentary on the Republican Party, whose leaders made a determination that they were going to put party over progress. That's never happened before when the nation took on big challenges. President Obama made it clear from the very beginning of this process that he wanted to work with members of both parties to craft the best bill possible. He even kicked off his efforts by inviting stakeholders from across the political spectrum to the White House to share ideas. Contrary to what one Republican Senator said today, Democrats did not “do the HELP Committee bill completely Democrat” without “even ask[ing] one Republican opinion.” In fact, they accepted more than 150 Republican amendments. In putting together the Finance Committee bill, Senator Baucus held months of bipartisan discussions. The Committee held a day-long bipartisan health care summit, convened three bipartisan roundtables, and even issued three bipartisan policy papers laying out the options from which the Committee chose to craft its bill. Once the bill hit the Senate floor, Republicans passed up the chance to offer constructive amendments. Instead they chose to obstruct votes and offer six separate motions to essentially start from scratch. The sad truth is that Congressional Republican leaders decided early on that their best move was to “delay, define, and derail” reform – not to find common ground on a bill both parties could support. They made clear their hopes that health insurance reform would be President Obama’s “Waterloo” and that it would “break him” politically. In the process, they lost sight of the fact that this was never about President Obama – it was about the families struggling to keep up with skyrocketing premiums; the small businesses forced to choose covering employees and staying afloat; the 15,000 Americans who lost insurance every day this year. Today’s vote was a victory for them.”

Far Left Shitshow. If you read this you WILL definately lose brain cells. This is like dabbing wax except you dont get paralyzed.

A must read for younger people. Coming from someone who was 9 during the 2008 election, I definitely was not paying as much attention to news and politics. This book gives you great context for what happened during that time. It’s funny, well-thought out, and he doesn’t try to hide the fact that he loathes Donald trump’s presidency. Every democrat should read this going into the midterms.
