Publisher's summary

Popular radio host and bestselling author Clay Travis offers a unique playbook approach to politics, outlining how Republicans can win elections and win back the country through the lens of sports metaphors.

Republicans are in a losing period. The last election should have been a wake-up call for the current moment. If the GOP wants to turn its luck around, it’s time to toss the old playbook and find new ways to win elections and attract enthusiastic voters.

Like a well-timed coaching hire, Clay Travis is here to break down exactly how the Republican party can turn a few losing seasons into a championship run. Whether it’s advice on how to exploit the weakest link on the opposing team, or how to capitalize on fast break opportunities in the press, Travis provides a surefire gameplan inspired by winning strategies in sports that will finally give conservatives an edge over the competition.

Great Playbook- or audio in this case..

Great Playbook- or audioBook in this case..Although your past pics were bad, welcome to real life. Doing some research into your political choices is needed, especially since you can no longer Trust the media: Like we use to back in the day.
Plus you went over the minimum of 6 hrs, although 14 hrs ++, 20 ++ is my favourite bc it's usually more detail....

Clay Travis at his best!

Clay Travis brings an analytical approach to the path needed ahead to be successful in the next election. But along the way, Clay sprinkles the conversation with wit and wisdom. An enjoyable read. I will probably listen to it a couple of more times in the months ahead.

Great strategy

I’ve gotten to where I can’t take political books much anymore, but I found the ideas here refreshing and agreeing with them more often than not.

Trump Should Listen

Loved the logic. Pushes away a lot of fog to see clear directions

Didn’t understand the bravado - didn’t find funny or endearing. Maybe that’s Clay’s thing.

But, bravo

Clear and Deliberate; Analysis with a Plan

On point. Some humor yet not overwhelming. Chock full of truth. Great job by a student of history with a superb grasp of current issues facing our nation.

Excellent

Common sense argument to change the upside down crazy point in history of our time. Loved it, listened to it twice while renovating a house.

Recommend to anyone especially independents that hate Trump and but can’t stand what the current administration is doing to America

Great political breakdown

Clay speaks in detail on the historical and social importance of preserving the American way of life. Adding sports content creates a fresh appeal to politics.

Red Wave 2024

Trumps tone has changed since this book came out. It’s like he read this book. He’s not worried about the other Republicans and he’s going after Sleepy Joe. I’m excited for 4 more year of Trump!

Truly outstanding!

This book was truly fun and entertaining. For context, I’m a daily listener of the Clay & Buck Show, so I understand and appreciate Clay’s sarcasm and quick wit. Further, I am also a TERRIBLE reader, it bores me to tears. So… I was so interested in the book based on the radio show, as well as skimming online reviews, that I had to find a way to consume it! Enter Audible!

If I had to read the book, I would have never done it and missed something GREAT! With Audible, I knocked this out in 1-2 weeks and have raved about it to friends and family.

This book is truly a great analysis of present day society, historical evolution, self-reflection, and wrapped in a bow with the value of sports.

I’ll probably listen to this again as a way to encourage my wife to read the book (her preference) and engage in some good conversation!

Nice work by Clay and team! I just wish we had more folks like him over here in Blue California!
