<p/><br /></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> From Obama's former communications director and current co-host of Pod Save America comes an account of how politics, the media, and the Internet changed during the Obama presidency and how Democrats can fight back in the Trump era. <p/><br /></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>From Obama's former communications director and current co-host of <i>Pod Save America</i> 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.</b> <p/> 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? <p/> 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. <p/> 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, <i>Yes We (Still) Can</i> examines how Obama succeeded despite Twitter trolls, Fox News (and their fake news), and a Republican Party that lost its collective mind. <p/> An irreverent, no-BS take on the crazy politics of our time, <i>Yes We (Still) Can</i> 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. <p/><br /></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> A nostalgic look back and hopeful look forward.--<i><b>Kirkus </b></i> </br></br>Amusing and insightful. This is a nostalgic and hopeful must-read for everyone who is unnerved by Trump, misses Obama, and is and determined to fight for a better future for the country.--<i><b>Esquire</b></i> </br></br>An entertaining work of memoir--political strategy...Those who share Pfeiffer's admiration of Obama...will love both the chatty insider anecdotes and the advice.--<i><b>Publishers Weekly</b></i> </br></br>Dan is one of the most brilliant observers of politics and media in America, and he's never lost faith in the idea that activism and public service are noble, worthwhile pursuits -- especially for young people who want to make a difference. We learned a lot from YES WE (STILL) CAN, and we literally host a show with the guy every week. In other words, we're annoyed that he saved the best stuff for the book.--<i><b>Pod Save America cohosts Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor</b></i> </br></br>I love YES WE (STILL) CAN for many reasons, but most importantly because you will all get to know and learn from the best bro I know. Dan Pfeiffer's wit, brain, charm, humor, and compassion make him a formidable storyteller, the best colleague, and an even better friend. Also without him, I never would have learned how to tweet. Seriously.--<i><b>Alyssa Mastromonaco, New York Times bestselling author of Who Thought This Was a Good Idea?</b></i> </br></br>In YES WE (STILL) CAN, Dan Pfeiffer has found a way to be nostalgic for the past while still motivating you in the present. Come for the uplifting stories about his journey with President Obama, stay for the honest (and optimistic) outlook on how Democrats can get their groove back and end the Trump era.
