Fighting The Deep State: Trump and Nixon’s Historic Parallels | James D. Boys x Harry Cole

First things first: Trump isn’t the first US president to dabble in what’s called the “Madman Theory.” Richard Nixon tried it back in the day, acting unpredictable to scare adversaries into submission. According to Author James D. Boys, Trump has taken that theory and dialled it up to eleven. He says to be a true implementer of the madman theory, one has to be sane, "it has to be feigned,” Boys says. In other words, you’re not supposed to actually be a lunatic, just act like one. The parallels between Nixon and Trump don’t end there. Both have a love-hate relationship with the media. Both see “deep state” conspiracies everywhere. But while Nixon kept his paranoia hush-hush, Trump shouts it from Truth Social. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Harry Cole Saves The West is a transatlantic dispatch from the front lines of a cultural and political moment that feels increasingly fractured. Recorded from Washington D.C., this podcast offers a direct, opinionated analysis of the parallel crises unfolding in both the United States and the United Kingdom. The conversations here tackle themes that dominate headlines and dinner table debates alike: the practical and philosophical implications of open borders, shifting economic stability, perceived threats to national security, and a broader unease about cultural direction. It’s a space where perspective is shaped by the blend of British political insight and an on-the-ground American viewpoint, arguing for a defense of traditional pillars like faith, family, and personal freedom. The tone is deliberate and forthright, avoiding euphemism in favor of what the host sees as necessary truths. Listeners will hear a specific ideological stance articulated through interviews, monologues, and commentary that frames these challenges as existential battles for the future of Western society. This isn't a neutral briefing; it's a committed polemic, asserting that the values which built the modern world are worth a vigorous and unapologetic defense. Each episode of this podcast builds on that central premise, dissecting current events through a lens that prioritizes sovereignty, continuity, and a particular vision of resilience.
