Trump Walked Into A Media Setting For Which He Was Far Better Suited Than The Other Contenders Because He Actually Knows How To Do Reality Tv And Made Them All Look Like Pretenders. And I Would Argue That Our News Media Has Only Gotten Worse Since Trump Got In Office. Trump Is Media Crack. The Ratings Have Never Been Higher. The Reason Cnn Would Run An Hour Of An Empty Podium Waiting For Him To Show Up During The Campaign Is Because They Were Terrified If They Turned Away From Trump Their Rating Would Go Down.

It Doesn't Have The Ability To Think Rationally This Economic Model. It Thinks Like A Drug Addict: 'where Can I Get My Next Fix?' It Doesn't Learn Wisely. Any Kind Of Measure Of Natural Wisdom Would Be: You Make A Mistake, You Correct It The Next Time Around. But A Drug Addict Feels Terrible... And Then Says: 'i Want More'. Unfortunately We Have An Economic Model That Thinks Like A Crack Addict.
