Inciting to Riot Part 4

   "Bad things" including "riots" will happen, if he's not nominated on the first ballot, says the candidate.
   "I wouldn't lead it, but I think bad things would happen," said GOP front runner Donald Trump in an interview broadcast on CNN and reported by the New York Times.
   That may not be a direct threat, but warnings are often perceived as instructions to followers to do just that, especially when there is a past pattern of comments encouraging supporters to beat up on hecklers and protesters.
   "I think we'll win" the nomination before getting to the Republican national convention, said Trump, "but if we didn't and we're 20 votes short ... I think you'd have riots."
   Meanwhile, during a morning interview on MSNBC, Trump insisted his main advisor on foreign policy is himself. Several months ago, when asked about policy advisors, he said he watches television shows.
   "My primary consultant is myself," Trump said. "I have a good instinct for this stuff," he added.
   Instinct is no substitute for knowledge and experience.

   Separately, Trump has reached the top ten list of risks to the world economy, according to The Economist Intelligence Unit, a part of The Economist publishing firm.
   A Trump victory, the Intelligence Unit said, "could escalate rapidly into a trade war." And Robert Powell, an analyst with the unit, said, "The impact for the world would be bad, and "the impact for the U.S. would be even worse."

   A new book, "Dark Money," by Jane Mayer, details the brothers' plans to coordinate efforts by the ultra-wealthy to overturn most or all of the social welfare government programs enacted since the Great Depression of the 1930s, and to focus on control of government by the richest of the rich in America.
   Another new book, "Saving Capitalism for the Many, Not the Few," by economist Robert B. Reich, details how calls for a "free market," released from government regulation, is in reality a plan by business executives to shape government regulations in their favor.
