For 10 years I’ve been saying trump is like the Hans Christian Andersen story Emperor’s New Clothes. Tricked by scammers, the emperor wears new “invisible clothes.” None of his subjects will tell him he’s actually naked. These days, we’ve got president literally asleep at the wheel. (cont)

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
