The real problem is (human) capital flow. But it’s about referring to human capital as “stock” in a yard. Remember that Hassett’s model was the one followed by Trump/Kushner that predicted an early near-zero COVID death toll. x White House adviser Kevin Hassett: “Our human capital stock is ready to go back...
Don’t worry, faceless industrial-production facilitators! Your output will be duly leveraged when the time comes! Never fear! Steven Mnuchin will not be forced to empty the contents of his safe deposit boxes to pay for his wife’s spider monkey placenta face creams. White House adviser Kevin Hassett: "Our human capital stock is ready...
I thought I was hearing wrong but I did not. MSNBC host Chris Jansing called Donald Trump by his ancestral name Drumpf. It was kind of amusing as she did not blink. Yes, I know it is silly but it is a good laugh on an otherwise somber day. Don’t...
It’s amazing how some people use their privilege for evil acts against others. It’s a matter of time before this woman if fired from her job. And she should be arrested for making a false claim! This woman was asked by a Black man to put a leash on her...

That is how Tom Nichols describes him in this powerful piece in The Atlantic. I might note the phrase “the Most Unmanly President” has been trending on Twitter today.

It remains bizarre to me that Donald Trump is the president of the United States. If I’d woken up yesterday from a 20-year coma to discover Carrot Top or Fred “Rerun” Berry was president, I would have been marginally less surprised. But the day-to-day reality of Trump’s presidency is even more shocking...

“As the death toll in the coronavirus pandemic neared 100,000 Americans this Memorial Day weekend, President Trump derided & insulted perceived enemies & promoted a baseless conspiracy theory, in between rounds of golf.” https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1264717545787006976?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Perhaps Howard Stern, of all people, said it best: “The oddity in all of this is...
Jared Kushner’s Air Bridge may have worked to not only expedite delivery of PPE, but also failed to deliver by perhaps hoarding an as yet unaccounted amount of PPE materiel. Slender Man made Air Bridge more like DoorDash. There is a 100 percent chance Kushner watched every episode of Silicon Valley without...
