David Frum

David Frum is a staff writer at "The Atlantic" and the author of two books about Trump’s presidency: the 2018 New York Times bestseller "Trumpocracy – The Corruption of the American Republic" and the 2020 book "Trumpocalypse – Restoring American Democracy". From 2001 to 2002, he served as a special adviser and speechwriter to President George W. Bush during and after the September 11 attacks on the United States.
He is regarded as a leading thinker in the American conservative movement and was among the first prominent conservative Republicans to warn of the challenges posed by the Trump presidency. His prescient 2017 cover story in "The Atlantic", "How to Build an Autocracy", is one of the most frequently cited works of the Trump years. In his popular new podcast, "The David Frum Show", he gets to the heart of the big questions shaping U.S. society and politics.
