Wall Street is absolutely giddy whenever Trump does something stupid — which is a daily occurrence — because it distracts the rest of us from what movements like Occupy have been telling us all along: That big banks still run our lives. And speaking of distractions, you can point to the establishment media to put up smokescreens in front of the truth about Wall Street, as their coverage often demonizes any movement that draws attention to how they cater to the 1 percent while crapping on marginalized groups. Lee Camp shares why the mainstream media is contributing to the...
