Good reading from a brilliant mind in figuring out Trump.

He said the difference between Hitler and Trump is that Hitler had an ideology, whereas Trump has none, making him less dangerous. I disagree with him on this point. Trump's driving force is his egotism, underscored by a creed that the "end justifies the means." To me, this makes him more dangerous.

Why don't more people pay attention to this man?

Saw him at ASU with Lawrence Krauss a couple years ago. Great conversation.

A Chomsky article doesn't fit in a tweet.
