Troll in Chief — How Donald Trump Turns Cruelty into a Political Strategy
Donald Trump isn’t just the president — he’s trolling the American people. In this episode, the Common Good Podcast team unpacks how Trump uses mockery, memes, and AI-generated videos to dehumanize and divide. From calling fellow citizens “enemies” to posting disturbing digital fantasies of violence, Trump turns cruelty into spectacle — and spectacle into power.We explore what this means for our national character, for people of faith, and for those who still believe democracy requires decency. How should good-hearted Americans respond when a president treats his neighbors as targets and his followers as props? What does it mean to resist — not with outrage alone, but with love, truth, and common good?Join us for a deep dive into the dangerous normalization of Trump’s trolling and how people of conscience can reclaim public life from the politics of humiliation.
