The sleep of reason produces monsters, at least according to Spanish painter Francisco Goya. What happens when the political reason is intoxicated by vested interests and corrupt campaign financing? The monsters it produces are even more frightening. This is my interpretation of the rise of Donald Trump, as I write in my latest New York Times Op-Ed.

Read my Op-Ed in The New York Times 

And read what I wrote five years ago on City Journal.

That was part of what was cut out of my book “A Capitalism for the People”.
