The Meltdown Began Long Before Trump

The Meltdown Began Long Before Trump

On today's BradCast, we peer into the rancid dark heart of the Republican Party meltdown and the trauma all Americans are being forced through to get there.

As detailed today, the ongoing meltdown began long before the campaign of Donald Trump, whose angry, dangerous, paranoid speech in West Palm Beach, Florida on Thursday offered only a glimpse into the party's decades-long lurch towards the fact-free 'reality' they've worked to create for all of us. No longer tethered to facts or truth, but to a nominee who embodies and reflects the very xenophobic, nativist, racist, and misogynistic tactics employed for political gain over at least the last two Presidential Administrations, the beginning of a reckoning may finally be in sight.

Yet, even those GOPers who finally understand some of this — and many in the corporate media who've enabled it for so long — still fail to grasp the gravity of the moment, their own culpability, and the traumatic stress the nation faces in the bargain. Nonetheless, our message today: We're going to be okay, there is a way out. All of that and what you can do to help us get there — as illustrated with the news of the day, a bit of listener mail and even some South Park(!) — on today's BradCast.
