Major Garrett

On December 18, 2024, Major Garrett, Chief Political Correspondent, CBS News, returned to the stage at the Economic Club of Minnesota. Major provided the audience with an interesting historical perspective by comparing two non-consecutive seated Presidents, Grover Cleveland and Donald Trump. While President Grover Cleveland's term was during the Gilded Age, President Trump's terms are both happening during the Digital Age. Both are animated by massive economic shocks and high expectations, both internally and externally. Major has vast experience and knowledge from covering 5 presidents in his career. He concluded his remarks, leaving the audience with this thought, "History tells us, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. One thing we know, the Gilded Age and the Digital Age have a lot to tell us about where we're headed." The Honorable Tim Penny moderated Q & A with Major. Tim posed a few questions about Major's books, the recent presidential election, the transition, and the change in candidates from Biden to Harris. Major addressed some poignant questions from the audience. It's worth taking the time to listen to or watch the recording of this event!
