(ANTIMEDIA) Op-Ed — “It can’t be. Donald Trump is an outsider! Washington hates him!” I can already predict the comments on this article before I even begin to make my case. And that’s exactly what the establishment wants. It doesn’t want you to ingest new information and perhaps change your point of view; it wants you to be loyal to The Party, regardless of which one of the two monoliths it hopes you belong to.

Violent California Protesters Play Right Into Donald Trump’s Hand
When it gets down to having to use violence, then you are playing the system’s game. The establishment will irritate you – pull your beard, flick your face – to make you fight.
