Magical Mitch-tery Tour

I know, I know. Mitch is running all over the country promoting his book, picking up bogus awards, sitting on panels, spewing his neo-liberal bullshit about combating poverty through austerity policy or whatever.  He's picking up support from the usual network of corrupt glad-handers and other people who make a living writing tired excuses for our rotting plutocracy.  There are lot of things I could say about these people but I just find it all exhausting.

The short version, though, is anyone promoting as some kind of "anti-Trump" the guy whose housing policies are driving the poor out of the city, whose solution to any and every service problem is privatization, and who is trying to install cameras on every street corner, bar and restaurant  is either stupid or lying.

Most of them are lying, of course. Because that is how they make their money.
