GOP in a World of Trump: ‘BradCast’ 6/17/2015

Share article:

So, did Donald Trump just blow up the GOP primary? Is he more than just a joke? Is he the Frankenstein Monster created by 40 years of Reaganism, Fox ‘News’ and the Tea Party as we charged (along with Heather Digby Parton) on yesterday’s BradCast? Could he actually win the Republican nomination and…gasp…the White House?

On today’s BradCast, callers weigh in on ‘Trump World’ and other 2016 game changers like Bernie Sanders.

Plus: Desi Doyen joins us for the latest Green News Report, on Jeb and Hillary’s climate strategy (or lack thereof, in one of those cases) and the Pope’s upcoming, highly anticipated (and satirized) environmental encyclical…

  1. The American dream isn’t dead, Brad. It has, courtesy of globalization, morphed into a global nightmare.

  2. If you are wondering where you’ve heard Trump’s “politicians are all talk, no action. Nothing is going to get done” before, consider:

    The perception of Hitler as the executor of the will of the people and as guarantor of national unity and purpose was not just a triumph of Nazi propaganda but also reflected long-standing public longings for strong national leadership that would effectively get things done. Roderick Stackelberg, The Routledge Companion to Nazi Germany (2007)

    Trump’s remarks about building a wall and making Mexico pay entail a dangerous appeal to racism.

  3. “It’s called the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe in it.”

    -Carlin

  4. Trump should be picking tomatoes every day. NOT making whatever he says he has. Some jobs are WAY harder then others, and picking tomatoes has to be on that list!

    Trump needs to attend human being school.
