What Do You Mean By That?

246: Why Trump Is Bad For [Y]OUR Wellbeing, Part II


Listen Later

This episode is a continuation of last week's episode, so if you haven't already listened to that one (it should be right above this one in your podcast feed), stop and go listen now, as it will make the most sense when listened to in order. This week we pick up where we left off, with the remaining four independent dimensions of well-being: spiritual, vocational, financial, and environmental. Let's just get right to it.

 

What to listen for?

  • In today's episode, we talk about the four remaining dimensions of wellness -  spiritual, vocational, financial and environmental;

  • Trump's support of extreme Christian viewpoints and his own view of himself as "The Chosen One" go against Constitutional and foundational principles of separation of church and state;

  • Despite being the politician for "every man," Trump dislikes unions (and the feeling is mutual) because he's first and foremost his own supporter;

  • Trump's financial policies are aimed at making his own life (and those of the extremely wealthy) easier, whereas Biden's economic policies helped all of us; 

  • Trump is actively working to remove America from climate accords that will negatively impact our world and future generations (plus he doesn't believe in climate change)

  • How we can get involved to protect our own, and everyone else's, wellbeing
