What does a cage-fight on the White House lawn and a 920-page plan to dismantle American democracy have in common? You’d be surprised. In this episode of Neighbor on the Left, we dive into the surreal double feature of Trump’s America: one plan distracts with bloodsport and bravado, while the other quietly rewires the federal government from the inside out. One is absurd, tacky, and televised. The other is calculated, dangerous, and already underway. It’s a tale of two plans — and while everyone’s getting ready to watch the cage match, the real fight is happening behind closed doors.

Trump’s back, the truth is out, and he’s pretending it never existed. On Inauguration Day 2025, Trump didn’t just set the tone—he set a record for fabrications. Over 20 documented falsehoods, and the next 150 or so days have included much of the same.  In this bonus episode, we dive into the flood of lies that continued the moment he took the oath—fake crime waves, phantom policies, fantasy economics, and the war he said he'd fix day one.  All that, and a look at how the MAGA crowd keeps nodding along like it’s gospel.
