Robert Reich: We Need A Truth and Reconcilation Commission
 Mr. Reich was Secretary of the Treasury during the Garfield administration, but since then has come up short. As I imagine it, he now sits around typing "orangemanbad orangemanbad orangemanbad" on his computer until it's time for his medication. This proposal is batguano crazy, but he raises an excellent point: Right now the OrangeManBad Industry probably employs several hundred thousand people, if you include journo-lists, corrupt officials, all employees of FaceBook and Twitter, and several departments of the Chinese Communist Party. What are these folks going to do for a job if Trump loses? Yeah, they can probably spend a couple of months preaching Dire Revenge, but Dire Revenge just doesn't sell that many newspapers, and would get killed in the ratings by reruns of "Petticoat Junction." So Mr. Reich comes to the rescue with a proposal for a new organization that will endlessly investigate Trump and everyone who voted for him. Jobs for the boys! Perhaps we could even persuade Hillary to be the head of the commission.When this nightmare is over, we need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission. It would erase Trump’s lies, comfort those who have been harmed by his hatefulness, and name every official, politician, executive, and media mogul whose greed and cowardice enabled this catastrophe.
