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.
