“President Trump is doing something many of his supporters said they wanted him to do: act not like a normal politician but like a businessman, for Americans, as if we were stockholders in a for-profit company. Bring in the dough. Efficiently. … That’s never been the recipe for republican governance and can so easily and quickly devolve into plutocratic socialism-for-the-rich. There’s no shouting ‘limited government’ about what Trump boasts of regarding ‘the deals’ he makes for the U.S. For ‘us.'” (11/20/25)
