In this episode, Jacob is joined by Jeremiah Harding for an unfiltered conversation about Donald Trump's alarming shift toward authoritarianism. They discuss how Trump's record on war, foreign policy, surveillance, and civil liberties has deeply betrayed the liberty movement. Both reflect on the false promises of Trump’s outsider image, the reality of his policies, and how many libertarians, including Jacob himself, feel growing regret over supporting him. They explore how issues like immigration, militarization, and coalition-building have been weaponized in ways that libertarians and Christians must not ignore.

This is the first of a two-part series. In the next episode, Jacob will be joined by a guest offering a more sympathetic view of Trump's presidency, providing a balanced discussion about how liberty-minded individuals can and should engage with the difficult realities of modern politics. Stay tuned for a respectful but challenging follow-up conversation!
