Trump's Trolley Problem

Philippa Foot

Trump plays the news cycle. One reason he's not going to send Jake Tapper to CECOT is, he needs him. He sets off a firestorm on one issue only to divert attention with something even more provocative. MAGAworld is a totally transactional universe. So game theory comes into play. Philippa Foot’s “Trolley Problem” is a literal description of a day in the life of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt. A train is coming right at the terrified woman of early cinematic montage. If it’s diverted six other track workers die. Do you let life take its course? Or do you feel ethically bound to save the one at the expense of the many? The Retrumplican train solves the whole problem by killing two birds with one stone.
