'Lucky Loser' Authors Expose Truth About Trump Success

In this episode of Press Club, Aidan McLaughlin interviews Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists Susanne Craig and Russ Buettner about their new book "Lucky Loser: How Donald Trump Squandered His Father’s Fortune and Created the Illusion of Success."

They also discuss their reporting process, what they found in the trove of financial documents they uncovered, and the 2024 election.
