Just what are the criteria for presidential " fitness " in U.S. elections ? Democratic socialists have been saying for years - without the help of our " free press " - that the two party system is indeed rigged in favor of candidates controlled by Corporate America.

By that criterion Donald Trump is the " lesser evil " compared to hawkish, " Wall St. Hillary ". For the ironic reason that he is so independently wealthy. The majority of the ruling class can gang up on him for non-conformity- but they can't ruin him.

Of course, no democratic socialist will vote for Trump or Hillary.
But we still say : " Fair play for Donald Trump ". The mainstream news media is over-demonizing him to make Hillary seem more righteously and virtuously presidential.
