I saw the following headline and just gaped:
How Would Disney Princesses Fare In Trump's America?
The first picture is Jasmine and Aladdin suffering tragedy. Various other princesses are also shown to be doomed for hardship. This is in Forbes! Here is an article about the hypothetical lives of fictional characters in an as yet unrealized America. How will Scooby Doo fare? It may be that this is nothing more than click bait, a story so ludicrous that people will be lured to Forbes.com and perhaps check out other articles while there.
When Obama was inaugurated, Newsweek had a cover proclaiming that We Are All Socialists Now. Socialism - a system with a track record of shortages, corporatism, and mass murder - was presented as a good thing. Meanwhile, Trump, who was the most leftist candidate of the Republican field except for his immigrations stance, is going to deport half of the Disney Princesses. When Rush Limbaugh hoped Obama failed to implement his agenda, he was excoriated by Democrats, Republicans, the media, comedians, entertainers, and assorted others. With Trump, it is the highest form of patriotism to hope he fails. Sure looks like party-affiliation makes all the difference in how one is viewed and portrayed.
