Apparently Trump runs his campaign more like a celebrity tour: all his assigned journalists are relegated to the press plane (“the “zoo plane”); there is little response to press requests for policy information by a minimal candidate staff.
The Circus on Showtime gives some of that missing insider perspective on The Donald with the Bloomberg Biz gossip good-time boys columnists Heilemann & Halperin. Real policy questions take it in the toupee as a result. More American Warlordism and The American Donald’s supporters morph into The American Daesh in 2017.
Reporters describe Donald Trump events as frightening and unsettling for those in the media. Trump relegates the media to rectangular pens they're not allowed to leave, singles out reporters with personal insults and refuses entry to those he doesn't like, and whips up his crowds against reporters he says are "very dishonest people." Will there be a free press under a President Trump?
Godwin-like answers from showering with Donald Trump at Military School:
That is of course rather painful for those involved. One should not as a rule reveal one's secrets, since one does not know if and when one may need them again. The essential English leadership secret does not depend on particular intelligence. Rather, it depends on a remarkably stupid thick-headedness. The English follow the principle that when one lies, it should be a big lie, and one should stick to it. They keep up their lies, even at the risk of looking ridiculous. en.wikiquote.org/...
