Next year the news will be much brighter and positive.

because once Trump takes over he will be able to control what information the government releases.

Unemployment will drop.
National finance will be booming.
The farcical global warming scare will be eliminated.
The US will suddenly turn face and wholeheartedly embrace Trump and his team.

News corporations will have to report government news releases and those that have too much analysis and criticism will find it difficult to receive government news directly. Who knows? Maybe corporation heads could find career destroying scandals in the papers if they don't tow the Trump line.

The US will follow the grand tradition of Russia, China, North Korea by replacing facts with propaganda.
Breitbart writ big. Our very own Ministry of Truth.

It's going to be difficult to fight when the whole government is forced to play the game. But if this isn't counteracted effectively and quickly, by the end of 4 years the reality distortion field could become so wide and pervasive that Trump will be elected for another term.
