And if another Trump emerged, could anyone stop them? Ex-FBI general counsel Andrew Weissmann is a former member of Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russia’s election interference. (Credentials: Trump labelled him “scum” and Stephen Miller called him “deranged” and a “moron”). In his new book Liar’s Kingdom: How To Stop Trump’s Deceit and Save Democracy , Weissmann offers a radical cure for America’s crisis: fight and punish political lying at every level. Would it work in a country addicted to lies and the anger they create? • Buy Andrew Weissmann’s book Liar’s Kingdom: How To Stop Trump's Deceit and Save Democracy from our affiliate bookshop and you’ll help fund the podcast by earning us a small commission for every sale.
