Trump’s politics is naive and skeptical, gullible and cynical. Trump’s relation with truth is like a generalization of conspiracy theory assumptions that see manipulative-conspiratorial activities at work behind ob servable reality. Beware pathological narcissists who are pathological paranoids!
Alternative economics is the command of the hour. Traditional trickle-down economics cannot remedy exploding inequality or precarious work. The market and competition are made into natural laws when they are fetishes.

The financial markets uncoupled from the real economy and made themselves independent!
Don’t let the “Look away” media trivialize the Big Empty, the foul-mouthed chronic liar and clear and present danger, the one-man constitutional crisis (John Nichols).
