Lobbying is about foresight. About anticipating your opponent’s moves and devising countermeasures. The winner plots one step ahead of the opposition, and plays her trump card just after they play theirs. It’s about making sure you surprise them, and they don’t surprise you.
Miss Sloane (2016) dir. John Madden

The curtain is pulled back on how Capitol Hill games are played – and won – as Sloane faces off against the most influential powers in D.C.
