Thanks, Ron.

The commentary about Trump's tactics of controlling media narrative with
distractions is only too obvious.  He's been behaving this way from the
start of his campaign for president; actually, long before in selling the
Trump image to promote his business dealings and as a reality TV show bozo.

Trump did not fall out of the heavens into the presidency as a fluke.

The domination of deceptive emotion not fact based mass market advertising
psychology interfacing with media as it has expanded into personal lives
with the Internet and social media as a controlling force in US culture
paved the way for the Trump presidency.

Twitter facilitates the Trump propaganda machine.

"Never. I never used it to get ahead I never used it to get into school. I
never used it to get a job. Look, this is just a way for Donald Trump to be
able to try to get somebody talking about something other than what he's
doing," Warren said.
