Bring on the antiTrump revolution

-

Donald Trump has threatened to shut down NBC and other American networks which he deems to be peddling “fake news”. And, as any student of history knows, that could be really, really great news.

Because 100 years ago on Monday, Russia’s Provisiona­l Government closed down all Bolshevik newspapers, allowing Leon Trotsky to call on the people of Petrograd to rise up as their freedoms were being stolen.

And so Russia’s October revolution began without a shot being fired.

Workers of America unite. You have nothing to lose but an ugly lump of inhumanity who embarrasse­s your great nation with every banal utterance.
