"The Art of the Deal" Co-author Tony Schwartz and National Leaders from the African American, Immigrant, Latino and Muslim Communities Lead Call For Healing
WASHINGTON, DC — With only five weeks remaining in an election season that history will record as the most divisive in modern times, national community leaders join Tony Schwartz, co-author with Donald Trump on “The Art of the Deal,” at a news conference to discuss current toxic rhetoric and the path forward after Election Day. No matter which party wins the White House, Congress or state legislative seats, the morning of 11/9 will be the dawn of a new America: Will we heal and restore our moral values, or will we worsen the politically-inspired hatred that has created a deep chasm in American society?
