Trump proved he's frightened of the religious fundies who manipulate him and now control GOP

more thoroughly than they did under Bush.

He tapped Pence when he didn't want to because he is scared to cross the Fundies. LOL - a control freak like Trump giving up all control over the GOP and the GOP platform because he's scared of the GOP's fundie whackos.

LOL at the 'strongman' image the corpmedia tools are touting. Trump is NOT a leader, he's a scaredy-cat follower who wraps himself in an image based in lies. Trump's a hapless weenie weakling from head to toe.

All he needs is a reset button to revisit every decision made the previous hour. And he is set. However, that particular apparatus would require constant maintenance given the amount of use it would receive

Those fundies are apt to do anything to seize power
(since they can't win that many elections), and being
one step away from the throne is too tempting for them.

The fundies don't directly control anyone. Others give themselves over to them. It's the same effect, it just goes in a different direction.
