I think Trump would ally himself with the moneyed interests if he got into power.
I think that populist bullshit is just a weapon he will discard after he no longer needs it.

In other words, he's just a regular Republican after all.

I read the linked article because of its headline encouraging Marco to leave the scene, but lo and behold it was very insightful re:

The smarts of the Asians.

The sell out nature of the Americans.

The draw of Trump despite his baggage.

"the main thrust of Trump's campaign - that the United State is in fast relative decline - is shockingly well founded."

The only thing he's doing differently is dispensing with the dog whistle. Othewise it's the same old Republican shit sandwich.

With all the time Trump spends in court, getting sued and suing others and now as a witness..... He won't have a spare minute to run the country should he be elected.

Thanks Pio. My brother gave me a Spy subscription for Christmas, probably 86. Funny magazine.

This dipshit is like some amulet from a Dungeons and Dragons scenario that has the ability to show folks what they want to see until they are entrapped.
