(5,614 posts)Trump has no principles or politics except for me first. He might be able to surround himself with worshipers and idolaters, and Trump Inc. will definitely have the inside track on any major construction but cut SocSec or Medicare? Shrink the military budget? Advance the right wing agenda (aka Koch agenda)? Most likely not.
President Trump will do whatever he thinks works best for him and nobody else.
Keep in mind Trump is not actually a stupid man. You don't thrive in NYC if you are, and certainly not pull off the kinds of flim flam near-fraud that marks his career.
Imagine Nixon without any ideals or programs or principles. His VP would be a 2016 version of Spiro Agnew.
Disaster? Not at all. That'll come when JEB! beats him in 2020.
The whole world is watching. And they think we're crazy.
