In this conversation, Paige and Rafael Holmberg take a philosophical lens to the complexities of the political landscape surrounding Donald Trump. They explore the evolution of Trump’s persona from a farcical figure to a serious political player, the implications of populism in contemporary politics, and the paradoxes within Trump’s support base. The discussion also examines the relationship between fascism and Trump, the emergence of MAGA Communism, and the importance of stepping back from the picture to look at the frame—understanding the broader system rather than just the political alternatives.
