Trump Politics

Mostly I sit by and watch, amused, as the Republican presidential contenders try to out-do each other on the crazy.**

But every once in a while I read something about one of the candidates--in this case Trump--that makes me blow coffee out my nose:

“The Trump circus is largely comprised of hangers-on with a key skill set: kissing Donald Trump’s ass,” Wilson told the Guardian. “Oddly, the same skill set doesn’t extend into other domains like politics, common sense or judgment.”

** This is what my presidential platform would be (courtesy of Corrente's 12 Point Platform):

1. A Living Wage
2. Medicare for All
3. Tax the Rich
4. Job and Income Guarantee
5. Debt Jubilee
6. Retirement Security
7. Free Public Education, pre-K-16
8. Post Office Bank
9. Enforce the Bill of Rights
10. End the Wars
11. Clean Air, Water, Soil, and Food
12. Carbon Negative Economy
