Trump's Thread of Influence: Trend-Setting or Political Theater? Is the Fashion Joke on us?
Last week, we took a look at Kamala Harris' thread of influence. This week, we're sizing up Donald Trump's. Make no mistake that he's able to label, brand, and mass-market his messages to the public -- And JD Vance is following suit. In this episode, we look at the trends inspired by Trump and the Republican Party, like the MAGA hat, that time President Biden was asked to put on the red cap (and did), and the Harris-Walz campaign's camo hat. From the way Trump and Vance label and nickname their opponents, to the "Republican Barbie" uniform, to cat lady sweaters on the latest runways, Juan Diego, Sara and Sofia are unpacking the controversies and cultural significance behind these choices. Plus, we talk about American humor in political fashion, such as 'nasty woman' T-shirts and cat lady sweaters -- and how these trending jokes might be on us.
