Good thing they voted for the candidate guaranteed to do neither of those things.
Edit: Comments on the article are about what you'd expect. Bring popcorn.
As I said elsewhere, popcorn sales will be going through the roof.
Lets see how long it takes him to take the first trillion out of the US economy. I expect him to succeed with this before next years Christmas.
Just like last time, the best outcome we can hope for is that those around him manage to desperately change his mind or blunt the effectiveness of his plans.
Then of course people will say "Look Trump wasn't as bad as you said he'd be." 😬
I will be overjoyed if I can ever say trump wasn't as bad as I expected him to be. But so far he's always managed to be worse, despite my very low expectations.
Yeah, it's for that reason why I think blunting his badness isn't the best outcome. People need to learn, stop saving them from themselves.
