You Can Tell When Trump Doesn’t Believe It (w/ Charles Duhigg) | The Bulwark Podcast

MAGA is a big tent because people are willing to sacrifice everything from their dignity to economic ruin in order to express their racism. Also, it's obviously a cult of personality.

Tim, one of the reasons you are so popular is because you are authentically yourself. I really appreciate it.

You know what else isn’t fun- racism, misogyny, destroying the environment, tax cuts for the rich & corporations, demonizing immigrants, demonizing vaccines, a President who makes himself rich while in office, politicians trying to steal elections & when that fails supporting an insurrection, stealing from students who enrolled in fake university, stealing from your own charity, bragging about sexual assault- no fun at all.

A Psychopath linked with stupid people is your winning combo apparently.

I think its a bad thing if we all stop caring when our politicians lie to us honestly

So Americans *did* hear him say that what matters to him is racism and hate and they said, “sure, we’ll go for it!”

As a volunteer for the Obama 08 campaign, this is a completely different landscape we are navigating today. When I engaged with voters while canvassing I didn’t have to fight against social media and influencers.

I read that article when it came out. I agree to an extent. The huge advantage that MAGA has is it’s built on BS— not disagreeable ideas but actual BS —and nobody in that movement cares.

Hi Tim, You are one of the many people employed by the Bulwark that I think it would be great to meet. Watching pretty much ALL of the Bulwark podcasts for a bit now, I admire ALL of you! Thank you for your service to us citizens of these United States! I am a devoted subscriber. Elizabeth in Texas

IMHO: Organize like Minnesota. Build parallel infrastructure from the ground up. Bond over joyful things and sense of purpose/contribution that brings everyone together.
