    The end may be near for Trump, but not for our crisis. Let’s talk of the disease of which he is a symptom: a country run for the few. Let’s talk of “fake change” sold by winners and how to take change back.

        Respectfully, IMO you have missed the KEY systemic point: #foxnews and right wing radio convince normal people to vote against their interests----and support policies favoring the few ultra rich. This will not change until that media is changed.

        If you want some tools to try to stop or slow Right Wing media propaganda. That propaganda. does persuade voters 2 elect con artists & 2 mistrust mainstream media & truth.

        Hey, isn't Frederick Douglass the person, who according to Trump, who is doing "an amazing job and is being recognized more and more"? That astute old history buff, 45!

        Mueller has a brilliant prosecution strategy. He's holding back some of the charges. If #45 pardons Cohen,the states - CA, NY, ... can use the evidence against tRump for state convictions on these held back charges. #Resistance

        I agree with challenging the wealthty but find the message here too divisive. I see the way forward as fixing taxation and campaign finance and developping a method to encourage and oversee civic duty by wealthy, to return service and funds to where they came from: all Americans

        There are some very wealthy people... Bill Gates, LeBron James, for example, who are extremely generous, giving, have a moral compass and have a major contribution to the betterment of humankind. They are our true national treasures.

        The argument in the book doesn’t take anything away from rich people with generous spirits, like LeBron and Gates. But if you read the piece, the critique is deeper: a new school, or even a multi-bn $ foundation, do not make up for the system-wide policies that create such wealth

        Those same policies allow less-generous billionaires to horde wealth, while forcing the majority of workers to toil away in precarious states of hunger, anxiety, and debt. Don’t idolize billionaires! They will not save us
