‘Seinfeld’ Star Warns What Comes After Trump’s Colbert Crackdown

Julia Louis-Dreyfus is sounding the alarm over Donald Trump’s war on comedy.

The Emmy-winning actress opened the latest episode of her Wiser Than Me podcast by reminding listeners of what’s happened in years past, “when our government sees artists as the enemy”—with special mention of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago. “I’m not sure how we got here, but all of a sudden, we live in a world where facts are disputed,” the Veep and Seinfeld star began.

Facts are “drowned in noise, and then they’re weaponized,” she continued. “It’s like there’s this attack on our ability to trust what we perceive, and then confusion and a kind of numbedification are the result.”
