David Atkins: What Happens When Republicans Simply Refuse to Certify Democratic Wins?

David Atkins writes, "What will the institutions of liberal democracy do when Republican officials simply refuse to concede Democratic victories? The question isn’t as far-fetched as it may seem, and the reckoning may be coming far sooner than most expect."

Sam Goldman interviews David about his recent article for Washington Monthly, talks about CPAC and Trump's inflammatory speech there, and introduces the updated mission statement for Refuse Fascism (as of July 2021).
