You Have To Understand That A Lot

Every Good Journalist Is Aware That His Trade May One Day Go The Way Of Phrenology-and, What's More, The Population Will Hardly Protest The Extinction.

There Are Inconsistencies In Donald Trump's Ideology.

There Are Systemic, Painful Problems Of Globalization And De-industrialization That Cannot Be Solved With A Phone Call Or A Tweet Or An Angry Speech Or Trying To Isolate The Press And The First Amendment. Sooner Or Later, The Donald Trump Show, Which Is A Projection Of Strength And Authority, Will Have To Deliver To His Voters. And If He Doesn't, In Very Real Terms, If He Can't Supersede A Situation Where A President Cut The Unemployment Rate In Half, If He Can't Do Better, If He Can't Open Factories And All The Rest That He's Promised, Then I Think He's In Trouble.

Democratic Institutions, Even In The Oldest Operating Democracy In The World, Are Anything But Perfect.

Trump's Rise Is Troubling Not Just On An American Level But On An International Level.
