David Cay Johnston is one of the great investigative journalists of the modern era. He has won the Pulitzer Prize and covered everything from police corruption in Los Angeles to loopholes in the federal tax code to casinos in Atlantic City. During that time, he has extensively covered Donald Trump — first during Trump’s career as a real estate developer, and now during Trump’s time as president. During a recent public event in Los Angeles, I interviewed Johnston about his brand new book called “It’s Even Worse Than You Think: What the Trump Administration Is Doing to America.” This was an event sponsored by Capital & Main, the investigative journalism outlet where I now work.
