S01E59. Politics & The Scammer In Chief

Gentle reminder: there’s a literal scammer controlling the White House. Yes, politics are upsetting and the world is probably going to burn in our lifetime if things don’t change. Yes, you are completely inundated with news about our scammy administration. We get that! We also think that it’s our duty to point out scams whenever we see them. The American President is not immune to being called out as a scammer! That’s why we forced ourselves to do this episode. We’re documenting all of the major scams that Donald Trump has been part of so that we don’t forget them. Hopefully, this info mobilizes us to fight for change. This episode is like getting your wisdom teeth out: it hurts and it’s unpleasant, but it’s so necessary and your mouth will be much healthier afterward.
