EP. 30 — Dawn of the Trump Era

Negin is on the road out West, but Fake the Nation rests for no one! Leah Bonnema (VH1) and Benari Poulten (Garbage Time With Katie Nolan) get on the horn to discuss the sensitive, traumatizing first days of Trump’s presidency. Hint: it’s all a bit too Orwellian for comfort. Plus, women Trump voters at inauguration share why they’re optimistic about their new president.
