Well, looks like Trump tried Googling himself this morning... http://theweek.com/speedreads/792735/trump-ragegoogling-himself-doesnt-like-what-hes-found
The most essential political truth to remember of the last twenty years is that reality has a liberal bias.
No, you regulate them... as they are now looking at doing as of this morning. https://www.politico.com/story/2018...oogle-regulations-conservative-outlets-798995 White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said Tuesday that the Trump administration is "taking a look" at imposing regulations on Google following the president's tweet Tuesday morning accusing the search giant of favoring news outlets critical of him in search results.
It's the first thing I thought of when I saw the headline... not surprised it was also on Reddit... it's a pretty common meme, especially when you live/breathe "cloud development", like I do.... we use it A LOT, because that's about the level of education a lot of our clients have of "the cloud".
But I was told the Republicans were the party of free-market capitalism and that regulations were... bad?
Every day I see something and I'm like "ok, THIS is the dumbest thing trump has done as president. At least nothing can be worse than this." Well, shit.
He just recently read about Hitler, and he’s currently mobilizing a team to stop him. Jesus Christ, America. Garfield, Lincoln, Kennedy.... isn’t is about time one of your nutbags killed a BAD president? I’m honestly amazed that he legitimately graduated high school, he’s so stupid that it’s actually annoying.
In all seriousness, that would be pretty catastrophic. For all the silly equivalencies people like to make to the Roman Republic, that’s a startling one that’s more prevalent than it should be.
I say block him from it all; no Twitter, no Facebook, no Google, no nothing. Just block him off from all things internet, like the fucking Luddite he is. There is NOTHING saying that he's entitled to use those services.
When you say it that plainly, can you imagine how much wind would be taken out of his sails by such a thing? His primate base and flock of idiot hangers-on feed off his impulsive online blatherings as if they’re the eternal flame, some of them may just force themselves to listen to someone other than a complete moron for a change if those platforms cancelled his doughy ass.
He can’t handle the facts, which is that his team is morally and intellectually bankrupt and that’s why the deck looks stacked against him.
His "team" reminds me of the old game "how much would it take you to do _______." Yeah, in theory, there is some dollar amount out there that would persuade me to eat out a hairy pregnant woman. It's not a low number. But it's a lot lower than joining trump's team. I'd get in front of cameras and defend his crazy ass too if they were paying me enough to be fuck-you rich.
Ironically enough, the whole reversal of Net Neutrality means that online services can target and charge the White House (or Trump properties), with huge, additional fees to access things like Google, or Facebook, or Twitter, or any other online system. Imagine if the tech industry, who can see what's coming, all banded together in one giant FUCK YOU to the current administration, and forced The Trump Organization to donate $100k to a valid charity daily in order to keep services enabled and accessible. I doubt something like that would actually happen, but a guy can dream... and it is 100% legal based on the current legislation.
