It occurs to me that the Dr Oz kerfluffel, the NY Post Melania flub, etc., etc. are not just incidental noise but are being orchestrated by the Trump outfit (and let’s remember who they are: Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, Stephen Bannon, etc).
Trump is a Manhattan con man and misdirection is an essential trick of the trade.
They’re baiting the press with juicy-sounding stories (“Stoner Doctor!” “Dr. Oz!” “Nude Photos!”, “Pepe the Frog!”) to distract from the important stuff–specifically, Trump’s business dealings.
Eichenwald’s piece in Newsweek (http://www.newsweek.com/2016/09/23/donald-trump-foreign-business-deals-national-security-498081.html
)cuts through the noise but everything needs to be double-checked and clearly explained.
And–lest we forget–it is a real problem that Trump has not released his tax returns.
