Summary

According to our guest, YouTube sensation and wildly successful political commentator, Brian Tyler Cohen, the modern Republican Party has laid out a long con. That, while the increasingly radical right gaslights the American public with its lies, artificial slogans and hollow catchphrases, there’s an ever widening gap between the essential Republican “brand” and their actual behavior. It’s such a marked phenomenon that Brian wrote a book, Shameless, to best explain where things went wrong and to highlight this all hands on deck moment where we, the public, choose to fight back. Spoiler: the media is part of the problem. As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.
