"Trumpocracy: The Corruption of the American Republic" January 16, 2018 12:06 pm hank

David Frum, a noted Neocon and former speechwriter for Bush II (he coined the term “evil empire”) has been on the talk show circuit lately pitching his new book: Trumpocracy”. Just Google “Frum, Trump”, I’m sure you’ll get all the hits you need.

He’s just the latest in a string of Conservative superstars who have been remarking about the Emperor’s new clothes. Maybe its a good sign, although he seems to be pretty pessimistic about it. I haven’t read the book, buy I heard him interviewed this morning and he has a very cogent and compelling analysis on what is happening, and why.

Is this good news, or am I grasping at straws?
