You do realize that when I criticize Donald Trump, I'm not attacking you, right?
Podcast: Talkin‘ Politics & Religion Without Killin‘ Each OtherPublished On: Fri Mar 29 2024
Description: Why is it that when there's a criticism of Donald Trump, that some folks who support him react as if it's an attack on them personally? On this installment of our program, host Corey Nathan explores this phenomenon. There have been a number of times when Corey and/or the guests have examined the words, actions and character of Donald Trump - and let's face it, there's much to criticize. Like, every day. But it becomes problematic when a friend who happens to support Trump takes that critique as if it's an attack against them and their character. Corey shares several instances of when this has occurred in response to recent interviews and posts. He also scratches the surface of what's happening in right wing media as one possible explanation of where this is all coming from. But by the end of this talk, we explore ways of how to engage with folks who do seem to take it personally when we openly critique something Trump says or does. Some of this includes setting clear understandings, finding ways to compliment the person, not tackling everything at once and, best of all, inviting them out for coffee or lunch! Let us know what you think. You can find Corey on all the socials @coreysnathan such as www.threads.net/@coreysnathan.
