Episode description

In this “car podcast”, Alex sits in his car after a run and talks about Trump’s weird obsession over white genocide in South Africa. Trump cut off aid to South Africa but granted special refugee status to white, Afrikaner, South Africans. The problem with all of this is that the South African government is not taking land from Afrikaners and is not killing them. Alex talks about how this is a false theory that has empowered white nationalists in South Africa and around the world. It seems like Trump likes the concept because it appeals to his grievance-based politics.
