In today’s episode, I dive into why cruelty has become a defining trait of the GOP, from Trump’s fearmongering to JD Vance’s divisive rhetoric. By stoking anger and resentment, the GOP is creating an “us vs. them” mentality that erodes democratic values and empowers authoritarianism. If you’re someone who cares about empathy and justice, this episode is essential listening.

Day 32: For the GOP, The Cruelty is the Point

Don’t go it alone. I’m here to share tips for surviving tough times. I focus on simplifying complex ideas and connecting the dots on the things that affect what was once affectionately called the ”middle class.” Let’s call it anyone who wants to protect human rights, civil rights, and our democracy. I also do improv, so gloves off, I may make you laugh! 

You’re in my sweet spot if you’re female, smart, GenX or GenX adjacent or GenZ (because we are eerily similar in many ways and my GenZ daughter is the one who keeps telling me this) and men who believe in women.
