Dr. Steven Reisner is a psychologist and political activist who brilliantly uses his study of the human mind to understand and explain our political reality. He reveals what all of the armchair psycho-analyses of Donald Trump gets wrong and provides us with a new framework for how to confront Trump and Trumpism. He’s launched a new podcast “Madness” which is where “psychology and capitalism collide” and he joins Michael to discuss racism, democracy, the problem with psychology today and why we must rethink our basic values.
