Trump supporters are neither federal employees nor primary school attendees. The changes would be directed at liberals and Trump supporters do not care what liberals think.
ignorance is the enemy
without equality there is no liberty
Save America - Lock Trump Up!!!!

Too broad a generalization. Trump found support in just about every class. The ideological division is imposed so as to keep the underclass in its place.

We have 20 more days of adult leadership, then the White House becomes Romper Room, but without an adult host. The Trump cabinet is, objectively, the least prepared or professional in our nation's history. npr. What a way to start a year!
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.
Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.

Rick, you have 19 days to cut that out.

I still say there is room in political forums for satire, even cartoons which lampoon elected officials. It IS a time honored duty of journalism. The Emperor has no clothes? It is the duty of journalists and political forums to point that out. Barring that, we're left with the honesty of children, which is noble, but the downside is, the elected officials can merely point to the notion that "children should be seen and not heard." Jerry Murrel on FACEBOOK The Washington Post "New York Times Executive Editor Dean Baquet has come closer to getting this right, pointing out that we must label Trump’s lies as such because he has shown a willingness to go beyond the “normal sort of obfuscation that politicians traffic in.” Writer Masha Gessen has gone even further, suggesting that Trump’s approach to information — or disinformation — looks like a hallmark of Putinesque autocratic rule, in which the autocrat is trying to “assert power over truth itself,” and convey the message that his “power lies in being able to say what he wants.”' -Greg Sargent
Yes, Donald Trump ‘lies.’ A lot. And news organizations should say so.

I'm getting a little pissed of with all the media equation of high IQ with the Aspie spectrum. These are two separate things. Most people with high IQs are perfectly functional in the social aspects of their lives. Some people with mild Asperger's are very good at concentrating on one specific topic (which apparently the general population has a hard time doing) so they seem to be very intelligent, but usually they are not very good at all on social interaction.. Agreed, and you've put a very well placed finger on me, Jeffery Haas. I can learn ANY editing software in maybe twenty minutes, figure out ANY camera in five minutes, but I am having extreme difficulty housebreaking our new Labrador puppy! The thing is, I know my limitations.
