If Donald Trump continues to make a lot of noise, most importantly if he
continues to arouse the Trumpsters, the Council of Foreign Relations
will have a little talk with Donald Trump (if they haven’t

will be told he needs to change his message. Just as Mr. Jensen told
Howard that there are no Arabs, no Third World, so Mr. Trump will be
told there are no Mexicans, Muslim terrorists or even Americans. There
are only corporations. Trump will no longer be allowed to rabble rouse,
just as Howard Beale stopped rabble rousing.
