Listen, Liberal Explained
Listen, Liberal: Or, What Ever Happened to the Party of the People? is a 2016 book by American author Thomas Frank. In the book, Frank argues that the American Democratic Party has changed over time to support elitism in the form of a professional class instead of the working class, facilitating the growth of what he considers deleterious economic inequality.[1] Frank was one of the few analysts who foresaw that Donald Trump could win the 2016 United States presidential election.[2]
