Paul Krugman Nails the GOP for Being the Party of Con Men—Just Like Trump @alternet:
"Or what about the con that Paul Ryan is currently performing, Krugman asks. Making the repeal of the "so-called 'fiduciary rule' for retirement advisers, a new rule requiring that they serve the interests of their clients, and not receive kickbacks for steering them into bad investments," part of his so called “anti-poverty plan.” Let's face it, the party that wants to defend the right of financial advisors to rip off clients is, well, the party of grift. Trump is a perfect reflection of the party's values, no matter what they say, which is why, Krugman concludes, they were powerless to stop him."
