Ep 936 | Tell, Don't Show
from The Professional Left Podcast with Driftglass and Blue Gal · host Driftglass and Blue Gal
What does it mean when the government exists primarily to entertain the MAGA base rather than serve the people? We examine how Conservative media have adopted a "Tell, Don't Show" approach to cover Trump's increasingly erratic performances, particularly his rambling United Nations speech that foreign diplomats called "stark, raving mad." Everything is a show in Trump World, and the Trump administration has weaponized their activities and policies for Fox News content rather than actual (successful) governing. For instance, prosecutors are being pressured to bring cases they know will fail, but which satisfy MAGA and Trump's show trial bloodlust. Trump as primarily a Fox News producer leads directly to the corruption of democratic institutions.More at proleftpod.com.Not safe for work. Recorded live from the Cornfield Resistance.Stay in Touch!
