Greg Shapiro - Leaving Trumpland 2.0

Donald Trump is back! And when Donald is back, you will know, then the voice of the Netherlands Second video of TV program Zondag met Lubach is also back: Greg Shapiro. Shapiro is coming to save us. With his theater show Leaving Trumpland 2.0 he helps us survive the 2024 American presidential elections.

Are you thinking: hey, that looks familiar!

That's right. He was also so helpful four years ago with his election special Leaving Trumpland (2020) and the year before with The Madness of King Donald (2019).

The name Leaving Trumpland is still appropriate, because if Trump loses, we will leave Trumpland behind us forever. But what if he wins? Will Shapiro ever be able to return to his native country? Shapiro is asked again and again: “But don't you want Trump to become president again?” His answer to that is the same as Mark Rutte once said in the White House: “Haha! No!”

Leaving Trumpland 2.0 is a mix of stand up and cabaret, with a Trump-inspired improvisation at the end.
