An Armao on the Brink: with writer Mark Mahoney

In this summer short Rosemary speaks with a familiar voice in wordsmith and Pulitzer prize winning opinion writer Mark Mahoney. President Trump is a talented communicator who sways the populace through the use of strong and repeated expressions. “Witch Hunt” and “Fake News” and “Hoax” come to mind. He also effectively casts doubts on information critical of him or that he doesn’t like by crying “weaponization.” This week he fired the country’s chief labor data collector because her statistics didn’t put his economy in the best light. His message has gotten out so powerfully that other institutions are doing his work for him. The Smithsonian institute pulled down material about his double impeachments and American Eagle pushed his white is superior agenda with a Jeans ad.
