Trump’s “Liar’s Kingdom” Is Coming Apart | Six Questions with Steven Beschloss
Andrew Weissmann joins Steven Beschloss on Six Questions to discuss his new book Liar’s Kingdom, Trump’s unprecedented pattern of political lying, and why those lies pose a direct threat to democracy. Weissmann explains why the old “marketplace of ideas” theory is failing, how media bubbles and algorithms distort reality, and why political lies about elections, public safety, and abuse of power demand a much stronger response. From Trump’s election fraud lies to the reflecting pool controversy to broader institutional failures, Weissmann argues that America cannot simply wait for the crisis to self-repair. Steven Beschloss and Andrew Weissmann dig into what legal, political, and civic reforms could actually help stop the next authoritarian from exploiting the same broken system Check out Steven's channel: / @americaamerica4958 00:00 Welcome 01:47 Are Trump’s Lies Unprecedented? 08:21 How Dangerous Is Political Lying? 13:05 Why Can Politicians Lie to the Public? 16:43 Can America Treat Lies as Public Safety Threats? 23:37 Should Politicians Lose the Freedom to Lie? 26:47 Can America Fix This Crisis? 32:00 Lightning Round 🤝 Join the Lincoln Square community on Substack today for unparalleled insights, expert commentary, and news from your favorite pro-democracy voices.
