Jared Cohen is the author of the new book “Life After Power: Seven Presidents and Their Search for Purpose Beyond the White House.” The book explores how former presidents—from Thomas Jefferson to George Bush—transition after reaching the height of power. Cohen joins me to discuss the lives of these seven men and what we can learn from them about power, change, and purpose.
Plus, will Trump appeal the DC Circuit Court of Appeals’s decision in his absolute immunity defense to the Supreme Court? And, what should we make of Fulton County DA Fani Willis’s response to the relationship allegations between her and special prosecutor Nathan Wade?
