If youre wondering if the new normal in American politics includes a president-elect rage-tweeting at companies he dislikes, engaging in near-daily hissy-fits over media coverage he finds insufficiently obsequious, and engaging in constant social media warfare over slights to his ego, youd be right. Witness the emerging gangster capitalism of Donald Trump. No one has felt much genuine shock that Donald Trump refuses to divest his control over his empire in a real, legally binding way. Only a fool would believe Trump would draw a sharp, bright line between his personal and family financial interests and the interests of the nation. Since the election, hes demonstrated in both word and deed that he intends to fully monetize the presidency to benefit his companies, integrate his children into consequential government decisions, and put the bully in the bully pulpit.

I thought the gangster was the guy who takes you money.
Libs rage at capitalism.
They don’t like it? Time for them to move to Cuba/Venezuela.
Socialism is glorious!
you money = your money
Rick Who? Every lousy writer with a computer is writing something derogatory about P-E Trump, knowing that’s the only way to get paid by some discredited fake news outlet somewhere.
He’s a nevertrump stooge.
I remember him getting destroyed by @mitchellvii the last few weeks of the election lol.
Do you agree with the never Trump thug who scrawled this?
If you want to know what gangsters look like, look no further than the Obama administration. They enforce their will against the American people's wishes and want to take away their guns so they can't defend themselves just like all Communist and German tyrants do before they start shooting their troublesome citizens in the head and burying them in mass graves (sort of like the mob does with their landfill companies). But if you can't do that you harass the $hit out of your citizens by passing endless regulations that raise the cost of utilities, groceries, services, etc...so they have to deplete their savings and go broke or raise the crap out of their taxes by bringing in more illegal immigrants and then forcing the to pay for their goodies. If not that you can alway use the IRS to target those people you don't like that speak up against you. Or better yet force them to pay for healthcare that's designed to retain the lion's share with a high deductible and pay out as little benefits as possible which they can't really afford, THEN make them pay a huge penalty because they couldn't afford it in the first place. All while you go on multi-million dollar vacations, eat the finest food, drink the finest wines, and play golf all day long.
Does that sound like what a Mafia boss would do if he had the power of the presidency to you? It sure does to me.
Fake news and opinion piece.
I’ve never seen the left so off their game like this. Trump has them running around in a circle chasing their own tails. I like it! Time to cue up the Benny Hill Show theme and enjoy the left imploding for a change.
GOP Consultant Rick Wilson to MSNBC: Trump Supporters Childless Single Men Who Masturbate to Anime
The so the self professed “purist Republican conservative” Rick Wilson has to grovel to the Daily Beast to get his rants printed.
Yes there are winners and losers!
... This fact is lost by the Left.
Author sounds like your typical Village Idiot. (See? But in this case the author himself provided all the necessary evidence )
This guy is a political hack hired by the Donor Class to attack Trump or anyone deemed a threat to the profits of the Globalists and their Cheap Labor Express.
Please do not give him any publicity.
I see Rick Wilson is still batting for the other side. Is he upset that his early-Nov surprise that would supposedly destroy Trump didnt pan out? I hope he makes his move to the Democrat Party, where he will fit in much better, official soon. Good riddance. The Daily Beast is just the place for him.
The Daily Beast is run by leftists who also work for Huff Po. Left of the N.Y. Times, if that’s possible.
Waiting for an article on Rahm Emmanuel who literally is in bed with gangsters. Also Bill and Hill in bed with the Dixie Mafia.
As always, the commie left deceptively projects their own sins onto the innocent members of their enemies. But now it is so transparent and obvious that 80% of people dont believe anything they say anymore.
Tweeting at companies he dislikes pales in comparison to the obama/holder/lynch tactic of suing them based on false accusations, forcing a “settlement” and distributing the cash to friends, family and selves.
Once again, leftist projection of their own crimes.
