They trolled him at his golf course New Years Day and he kicked their guest off his course. It was done to either let him know who was really boss or they wanted it made clear they had no respect for him.

They want to use him to get deregulation, corporate rule, an exploitative regime in place over the plebes. They don't want that undone by him getting out of control, getting impeached, and dragging the Republicans down with him, so us Dems can undo his shit.

So my guess, they'll go to town for about a year, then just as the scandals are getting so bad that the riots are starting, a mysterious lone-wolf assassin will strike, Pence will be sworn in, and the assassination will be used to push through a modern-day Enabling Act...
