Trump is likely to get much, much worse. Here are a few big things to watch for.
When a liberal power lawyer represents the Trump family, things can get ugly
Why foreign aid is critical to U.S. national security: We can't solve every foreign crisis through military action, say two former military commanders.
The Trumps are complaining about the ‘viciousness’ of politics. Irony is dead. - "when you spend the better part of 17 months habitually breaking political norms with your unusually nasty campaign, you can't spend time during your presidency complaining about the nastiness of the political system that you will now oversee as president. That's trying to have it both ways, which happens to be one of the few things the Trump White House is consistent about."
Oliver Stone Rewrites History — Again - "'Always beware of books that describe themselves as the untold history of anything, because it’s usually been told before,' he said. 'It sets up this thing that there is some sort of mysterious force suppressing the true facts, right? Glenn Beck does this all the time. It’s the same thing here, except this is basically a very standard left-wing, C.P., fellow traveler, Wallace-ite vision of what happened in 1945-46.' It’s not, Wilentz continued, that the questions raised aren’t worth raising. 'Is there a legitimate argument to be made about the origins of our nuclear diplomacy or the decision to build the H-bomb?' he said. 'Of course there is. But it’s so overloaded with ideological distortion that this question doesn’t get raised in an intelligent way. And once a question gets raised in an unintelligent way, then you are off in cloud-cuckoo land.'"
