The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment fury at a rigged economic system.
To counter Trump’s fake populism and his culture wars, progressives should mount a real battle against economic elites who have shafted America’s middle and working classes.

Q: Why does Trump fall asleep every time he sits down in public?!
A: The only alternative is to pump him full of stimulants, as they did a few nights ago for his ‘speech.’ Then, instead of a sleeping, elderly dementia patient, you have an enraged imbecile screaming at the world.

Congress demanded Jack Smith testify about his investigations, but kept him behind closed doors during his sworn deposition. If we care about transparency, then Congress should release the transcript. My thoughts in Bloomberg.
