Is Trump Really a Clown?

In this episode of the Clown Spirit podcast, Barnaby delves into the misuse of the term 'clown' as an insult, focusing on Tim Cunningham's Washington Post article that argues against calling political figures like Donald Trump clowns.

He explores the deeper truths that clowns reveal through their foolishness and the cultural potency of using the term in political critique.
