The Day After - How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World

By: Brian Tyler Cohen

Published by HarperCollins Publishers, 2026-07-14

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Shameless, Brian Tyler Cohen explores how Republicans have abused power, how Democrats have refused to exercise power when they held it, and how progressives should wield power if they are fortunate enough to win a free and fair election in a post-Trump world.

This book is a wake-up call about the decades-long project that led to Trump's America.

It's the playbook for progressives who want to do far more than restore the status quo.

This is how we build a stronger country, with hope and opportunity for all -- before our democracy slides into a distant memory.
