      1. I have a plan that is so crazy it could work. Let's hack the Fox Feedback Loop.

      2. Right now Fox and Trump have a folie à deux relationship. They egg each other on in xenophobia. Trump echoes right-wing stuff from Fox which then goes to further extreme.

      3. What would happen if Bill Gates & Jeff Bezos bought Fox & turned it into a Potemkin channel aimed only at Trump (as it sort of already is).

          4. The Potemkin Fox wouldn't be a liberal channel, but a pro-Trump channel to keep Trump from engaging in policy at all.

          5. Potemkin Fox would be geared to Trump. Day One: Sharks attacking America. Day Two: Shark Attacks Staved Off by Fearless President Trump.

          6. In this scenario, President Trump would become a figurehead, a loveable Chauncey Gardner who watches TV & is indulged by all. USA would become a parliamentary democracy.

          7. White House staff and GOP pols might go along with this, since it means they can negotiate without worry about Trump's capriciousness.

          Would Murdoch sell it?

          I've long thought that if George Soros really wanted to spend his cash influencing American politics in a meaningful way, he'd buy Fox.

          He would stop watching and then only get his news from breitbart, infowars and daily stormer

          Alas, it won't work: Murdoch won't sell for less than a gross over-valuation, enough so he can set up Fox 2.0.
