What? Trump has an "agenda?"

Who knew?

I don’t think Trump had any agenda whatsoever. After he was goaded into the primaries by his old pal Hillsy, his only agenda was to beat those establishment fuckers. That’s Donald. He’s an alpha male who wants to win whatever race he’s in.

We all applauded when he prevailed over those establishment fuckers. But neither Donald or anyone else on the planet expected he would actually win the election. No plan, no platform, no nothing.

Then the inconceivable happened.

While we’re all still in a state of shock, I’m sure Donald was more shocked than anyone.

He didn’t really want the job. He was confident that his long-time pal Hillary would triumph, and he would be able to go back to his regular life of egregious self-promotion and the occasional real estate development project, and of course squiring around the nubile young women who show up for his various beauty pageants.

Unfortunately for everyone, he won.

I have a lot of respect for Naomi Klein. Her Shock Doctrine book is pretty much on the money as far as I’m concerned. You see that strategy playing out everywhere you look, from school boards closing your local school to national governments suddenly changing direction and declaring long-time ally Qatar a sponsor of terrorism.

Hit hard, hit fast, and impose your “solution” to whatever crisis is at hand before folks have a chance to regain their equilibrium.

That’s why I’m more than a little leery of Naomi’s screed on view at The Intercept today.

That’s Glenn Greenwald’s baby. The Intercept has taken a bit of flak for outing leaker Reality Winner this past week.

As a leaker of note himself, Greenwald is undoubtedly keen to distance himself from the Winner scandal. What better way to get your eye off the ball than to push out a boffo Naomi Klein story?

So Trump has an agenda and Greenwald is in the clear.

We’re spared questioning Greenwald about his agenda, about who pays his bills, and who he’s really working for.

Come on Naomi, you’re better than that.
