The Silent Threat To Democracy (And How We Stop It) | Sen. Cory Booker

The Silent Threat To Democracy (And How We Stop It) | Sen. Cory Booker

Senator Cory Booker sits down with Marc Elias to discuss the real and growing threats to American democracy. Booker explains why economic insecurity, extreme inequality, and normalized corruption are not just policy failures but existential dangers to democratic stability. He warns that rising costs, collapsing trust in institutions, authoritarian abuses of power, and the politics of cruelty are driving cynicism and disengagement—and creating fertile ground for democratic backsliding. Rather than focusing only on stopping Donald Trump, Booker argues that democracy can only be saved by restoring trust, redeeming the American promise, and offering a bold, forward-looking moral vision that gives people something worth fighting for, not just something to fight against.
