There are public figures about whom so much ink has been spilled that it seems unlikely anything new or interesting could be said. I assumed Sarah Palin was one of those people when I started reporting my new book, Insurgency: How Republicans Lost Their Party and Got Everything They Ever Wanted.
Palin has been glossed over or edited out of many journalistic accounts that have attempted to take stock of a Republican Party so completely and thoroughly dominated by former president Donald Trump. Trump, by the sheer force of his compulsive need for affirmation, almost demands it be so.
