Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House
by Jonathan Allen
View on GoodreadsBiden's insistence on staying in the race after the June 27, 2024 debate split his party until he withdrew on July 21. Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes follow what came after, from Kamala Harris's 107-day replacement campaign to Trump's win with voters unhappy about the direction of the country.
Core ideas
- Real-time access: Interviews with more than 150 insiders from the Biden, Harris and Trump campaigns were conducted as the race happened, not afterward.
- The Rogan episode: The book says Harris was booked on Joe Rogan's show; Rogan says no appearance was agreed and the authors never contacted him.
- A narrow lens: Washington Post reviewer Sam Tanenhaus faulted its focus on Democratic campaign mechanics, noting that Gaza appears only seven times.
