How Trump can keep the baying populist mobs at bay, in three easy steps

It’s beyond obvious by now that Donald’s election campaign is hugely at odds with the clique of billionaires and former generals he is surrounding himself with as he builds his management team. Here’s how he could quiet the disquiet that’s growing around his perceived bait-and-switch tactics.

1. Toss the plebes their dream of a $15/hr minimum wage. At first blush you’d think guys like Puzder aren’t gonna think too much of that, but even he can be convinced. After all, that’s a lot more disposable income for the sort of folks who like to dispose of their income at Carl’s Jr. and similar venues. Just jack your prices to cover the costs. It’s a no-brainer!

2. No matter what you call it, (and obviously you’ll have to call it something else) give the masses some version of universal health care. That’s gonna piss off the big dogs in the private health care business, but most Americans are OK with the idea that their health challenges shouldn’t be somebody else’s profit opportunity.

3. Go ape on infrastructure renewal. This can create as many jobs as you need to create. Trump can easily siphon hundreds of billions out of the obscenely bloated military budget and use those billions to create millions of jobs rebuilding America. Yup, time to pull the plug on the F-35 and use the money to revamp the I-35 and all those other Interstate highways that have fallen into decrepitude.

Should be a sure thing!
