Donald Trump: the man, the myth the Megalomaniac Part II

Send us Fan MailFolks, I don't know what the hell happened to our audio on this one. Jen sounds like she's talking into a pillow and Carolyn sounds like she has a sinus infection. Forgive us!That presidential debate was the last damn straw. Donald Trump is a racist, sexist, lover of authoritarianism hellbent on dismantling the foundation of our democracy. If you think Jen and Carolyn are being hyperbolic, think again. Allow us to take you on a journey through Trump’s childhood, his rise to fame, and ultimately, his embarrassing bungling of one of the most sacred and significant jobs in the world. In the spirit of Mary Trump, we’ll go deep into Trump’s psychology and discuss some of the pivotal factors that contributed to the development of his most toxic traits. We’ll also take a psychological dive into what happened on January 6th and why so many were galvanized to participate in an attempted coup on behalf of their beloved “leader.” Oh, and this needs to be two parts because, as we said in grad school, there is much to unpack! U.S. Capitol riot | January 6, 2021 | HISTORYJan. 6 Capitol Rioters Arrests and Sentences So Far | TIMETrump ‘lit that fire’ of Capitol insurrection, Jan 6 Committee report says | PBS NewsThe Jan. 6 committee says Trump broke these laws.
