  • Trump is promising to be a dictator on Day One and the co-chair of the Republican Party has promised “scorched Earth” when he returns to power. In a new book Federico Finchelstein lays out how Trump can become a modern fascist if returned to power and how he’s already three quarters of the way there. Fred discusses it with Professor Finchelstein a world-renowned expert on fascism, populism, and dictatorship. Finchelstein is a Professor of History at the New School for Social Research and Eugene Lang College in New York City as he releases his new book ‘Wannabe Fascists.’ His previous books include From Fascism to Populism in History and A Brief History of Fascist Lies.

      He needs to be in Prison, anyone that's steals Top Secret SCI Documents used to be called Spies, executed for the crimes, Treason for the documents found in Mara Lago, documents consist of Spy names in Russia and China that's been executed or in Prison found in Mara Lago.

      Nice thought, but there are three problems with it. One is what the maximum penalty for this specific combination of crimes and the other is that what you and others are advocating for sounds more like retribution than justice in the legal sense. And three, remember, whatever the courts can do to Trump, they can do to anybody. Is that really what you want? Do you really trust the U.S. legal system that much?

    I listen to MeidasTouch daily. Love ALL the podcasts! As an Australian, I truly hope every American registers to vote in this election. I’ve started to review the “Project 2025” (doctrine) put out by extreme right conservatives and all I can say is ‘WTF?’
    Somehow, snippets of this document need to be shown across the nation through every democratic podcast and spoken about loudly! It’s abhorrent and down right scary what they plan to do.

I was never into politics until Trump ran for 2016 election. I knew he was trouble. I voted for the first time at age of 36. No one is perfect however we can learn which is more suited to run this country.

    I have my doubts that Trump will face imprisonment. He has been convicted of crimes and is still free to run for presidency. This blows my mind... I am frightened for my children and grandchildren if Trump ever takes office again. I hear people say a former president should have special allowances. I feel the opposite they have taken an oath to serve our Country and the american people and most importantly Democracy. Vote blue!
