Big Shorts

In investment language Donald Trump shorted the intelligence of the American voter and won. Voter stock went down. He continues to bet on idiocy but everything has a floor. He cashed out at the election and bet again on ignorance and gullibility. 

When will the electorate realize they've been duped? And will Donald get out at the bottom? He is simultaneously betting on an upside for selfishness, setting the stage for a new round of plundering and asset-stripping at the expense of responsible Americans.

It has been the Republican practice for decades to bet on wealth and against the poor and middle-class while gaming the system. Donald is in a position to influence, if not guarantee, the result but we still have some value, even at liquidation. We can vote.
