A Conversation with Author Ben Fountain About How American Democracy Is Broken and Donald Trump and His Supporters are Burning it All Down

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Ben Fountain is the author of the novel Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk, winner of the National Book Critics’ Circle Award and a finalist for the National Book Award. Fountain traveled across the country during Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign in an effort to document that political and social disaster as it took place in real time. The result is his most recent book Beautiful Country Burn Again

Fountain explains the deep and burning rage in America from a lack of hope and limited dreams which in turn helped to spawn Trumpism, why Trump’s deplorables love him so, and how America’s democracy went so wrong. Fountain also highlights how the Democratic Party shares no small amount of responsibility for Trump’s reactionary movement because they succumbed to neoliberalism and abandoned American workers to the gangster capitalists.

On this week’s show Chauncey DeVega says what must be said about (now private citizen) Robert Mueller: he is a coward and not a hero. Chauncey also warns the public that Trump and his personal bodyguard and human shield William Barr are and will be collecting receipts against their enemies such as journalists and reporters who dare to tell the truth about this regime.
