13:25Now PlayingThe White House Correspondents' Dinner has long been treated as a lighthearted Washington tradition. Stuart Stevens argues that in today's political climate, it has become something much more dangerous.
In this commentary, Stuart explains why normalizing Donald Trump and treating authoritarian behavior as ordinary political theater weakens journalism, democratic institutions, and public accountability. He examines how the media, corporations, universities, and political leaders respond to power—and why those choices matter now more than ever.
If you care about democracy, journalism, media accountability, and the future of American politics, this conversation lays out why normalization may be one of the greatest threats facing the country.
