Post-Trump-Partem: Politics in the Age of Irony.

Voters will get a simulacrum of radical change via a provocative cast of Reality TV stars. When "reality" sets in, Trump will reach out to me. For now, true to the age, it's politics as performance.

This is the first in a series of longer-form Crotty lectures on art, philosophy, and politics. Works referenced in this episode and for further study:

The Western Canon: The Books and Schools of the Ages, by Harold Bloom.

Lectures on Art, Religion, and the History of Philosophy, by G.W.F Hegel.

On the Use and Abuse of History for Life, by Friedrich Nietzsche

Achieving Our Country: Leftist Thought in Twentieth-Century America, by Richard Rorty.
