DONALD TRUMP WILL BE PRESIDENT. THIS IS WHAT WE DO NEXT.( the Intercept)

[dixiegrrrrl]

It’s not hyperbole to say the United States, and in fact the world, will need some luck to get out of this one alive. So let’s concentrate on making our own luck.

The people who run America have constructed a political system that’s like a glitchy killer robot, one even they can’t control anymore.

Working as designed it murders African Americans and pregnant women and opioid addicts. The Iraq War was a minor hiccup that caused it to obliterate a country, several thousand Americans, and hundreds of thousands of people all around the world. The housing bubble was a more serious bug that liquidated hundreds of thousands more from the poorer half of the rich world.

But with Donald Trump, for perhaps the first time, the robot totally ignored the commands of its creators and now has everyone in its crosshairs.

If there’s anything to learn from history, it’s that elites don’t dismantle their beloved killer robots on their own. Either regular people — including you reading this right now — will deactivate this one, or it will never happen at all. Not a single person knows exactly how to pull this off. But one thing’s for sure: Trump’s rise proves that whatever it is we’ve been doing isn’t working.

Then follows some very practical, and up to date, suggestions.

1. Look at everything the Trumpsters are angry about it was a damn Republican idea.

Nixon opened up trade with slave labor China. GHW Bush came up with NAFTA and couldn't get any Democrats to vote for it. Bill Clinton pushed NAFTA and was able to gather enough Democratic votes along with an almost unanimous Republican vote to pass it. We get the blame. A Republican think tank came up with Obamacare enter Obama he gets it passed and Democrats get the blame. The Republicans want cheap labor so people from Mexico come over to fill the jobs and the Democrats get the blame.
