Continue readingMontreal Simon: Donald Trump and the Week From Hell
It seems only fitting that Donald Trump should end his week at Liberty University, invoking the name of God, and denouncing his critics.Because for Trump it was a week from Hell.A week when his inner beast, or inner fascist was finally revealed. And he was seen to be both crazy,
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Donald Trump and Michael Flynn Show
They used to work together so well, like two old soft shoe shufflers on the election campaign circuit. Donald Trump singing out "Lyin' Hillary Clinton" and Gen. Michael Flynn leading the chant "lock her up, lock her up."It was practically an American love story. But then Trump made Flynn his national security adviser, and

It's a budget plan only the monstrous Donald Trump and his bestial followers could love. A plan that would take money from the poor and the vulnerable, and hand it over to the police, the military, and the millionaires. One that would attack the arts and the humanities as only fascists
