I covered the presidential campaign (briefly) for the late-lamented Village Voice in 2016. The first thing I did was log onto Donald Trump’s campaign website. You want to know what was there? A banner reading “Trump for President,” and below that, a list of the next two or three rallies Trump was holding, each with a big “Tickets” button where you could sign up to attend the rally.
That was it. No “white papers” on issues, no recent quotes from the candidate, no links to interviews he had given to local news outlets, not even any video from the rallies he had already held.
