Why Do Trump's Supporters Defend What They Once Opposed? | Trending Ep443

Are people turning a blind eye to government overreach simply because their preferred political party is in power?
Gareth examines John Whitehead's article The Politics of Denial, exploring Donald Trump, political tribalism and the dangers of defending actions we would condemn if the opposition were responsible. From expanding government powers to the erosion of civil liberties and freedom of speech, Gareth questions whether political loyalty is preventing people from recognising the warning signs.
Elsewhere, Gareth discusses Olympic sprinter Beth Dobbin's debilitating illness, an attack on an Australian MP and the conviction of a Kenyan cult leader.
