Hippocrates and the Price of Hypocrisy

Donald Trump, hereafter to be referred to by a medical acronym DT ( = delirium tremens, a severe alcohol-withdrawal syndrome with occasional lethality) has already had his first scandals--even before he was in office. No, not crude language but his choices for a number of cabinet positions. The most obviously terrible is Betsy DeVos for Education Secretary. The funder of "Conversion Therapy" groups.

OMG! The world has ended. Trumpka? Supporting?

Well here ya go. 30 years of Clinton, Obama and you get this.

Today's announcement that the US is withdrawing from TPP and seeking a reopening of NAFTA is an important first step toward a trade policy that works for working people.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Some good

First I feel it is important to note that people fail to consider that this election was a two edged sword
Trump is a disaster, yet I firmly believe Hillary his equal in that regard. I fear neither of them, but rather the common goals all the purchased politicians aspire to achieve as they perform the will of those that purchase them.

Hillary is every bit the neocon that Bush was, Every Bit the financial elite proponent that any trickle down Reaganite ever was. She is a neoliberal that believes in privatizing the commons (from education to everything else), making “sensible cuts” to “entitlement programs”. IS/was corrupt and purchasable as hell, believes in race to the bottom wages and wealth disparity trade agreements but would have had an easier time passing such Republican agendas as a Democrat, just as her husband did.
