The farce of the "Anonymous" Trump official

Let me offer some corroboration for these dire warnings. The stock market closed yesterday at 28,121. Worse, unemployment, especially minority unemployment, is at historic lows. Real wages, especially at the lower end of the scale, are rising rapidly. If that were not bad enough, Donald Trump has followed through on his promise to nominate judges who share the judicial philosophy of Antonin Scalia. To date, he has seen something like 200 confirmed, along with two Supreme Court Justices. Trump came to office pledging to undo two counterproductive regulations for every new regulation enacted. His record so far is something like 16 regulations repealed for every new one. He enacted a large tax cut — not perhaps large enough, but there was Congress to contend with — which further sparked the economy. His ‘America First’ agenda has brought manufacturing flooding back to the US. His support of fracking and other energy initiatives have made America the world’s biggest producer of energy.

This is just the beginning of a very long list, but you can see how tenuous is the administration of Donald Trump. The ‘guardrails’, as ‘Anonymous’ says, are collapsing or coming off, or whatever it is that guardrails do when deployed to illustrate a completely fictional and tendentious narrative composed chiefly to illustrate one’s own wisdom and self-importance.
