If true, absolutely terrifying to me.
Probably just more Golden Showers. There has been so much Fake News, Propaganda and Partisanship by the Corporate Media that it is hard to believe anything that is put out.
Yeah, everything nowadays is prefaced with "if true, then ___"

Sad state of affairs
Yeah the MSM really fucked themselves by lying about Trump so often. They have told the same lies way too many times.

Trump supporters often have infinitely better criticisms of Trump than his detractors. There are plenty of bugs, but the Trump haters go around wasting all their time claiming that a feature is actually a bug instead. Sad.

You guys are all right. The Misinformation and Trumphobic reactions probably strengthen Trump in the long run and water down reasoned criticisms
This election has made some strange bedfellows. Here Glen Greenwald addresses how the Deep State (Media and US Intelligence) are working to subvert Trump.
Greenwald makes the same case Hashworks members above are making about how this unfounded subversion damages our Democracy.
“Americans are going to have better choices and Americans are going to have better products because we’re not going to burden the banks with literally hundreds of billions of dollars of regulatory costs every year. The banks are going to be able to price product more efficiently and more effectively to consumers.”
“We have the best, most highly capitalized banks in the world, and we should use that to our competitive advantage,” he added. “But on the flip side, we also have the most highly regulated, overburdened banks in the world.”
So now big banks are good? Well, what's the worst that could happen?

So when do we start seeing more effective critique around here...
Rather than hero worship and head shaking about all the SJWs, the MSM and what the Marxists are up to.
I'm prepared to give Trump a chance... but it would be nice to get some decent discussion about his actual policies...
What are we all giving Trump on his report card so far... realizing of course that it is early days... Is there much to really get excited about?
Deep down tho, I still thirst to kill you and eat you. Ultra Chimp can't help it.. - Smitty

At the fundamental level, he is trying to realign corporate and worker interests under the auspices of one national interest. Right now, the result of globalism has resulted in those being totally opposed, and if not corrected, leading towards some form of ultra-nationalist uprising. One of the interesting things we have seen recently is the populations of various western nations trying to circumvent that.
