The best guide to what Donald Trump would do as president
2017-01-31
h/t Instapundit

Republicans hoped he would turn out to be a conventional conservative. Democrats hoped he would not do anything too drastic, and maybe even strike a few deals.

But the best guide to what Donald Trump would do as president appears to be what he said he would do as president.

..."People are just not prepared for the fact that we’re not dealing with a regular Republican-versus-Democrat battle here, we’re dealing with an administration that in its first week has demonstrated that it doesn’t have much respect for the rule of law," Schneiderman said. "We’re in for a bigger challenge to our constitutional fabric than we’ve faced in a very long time in this country."
Of course we know that people like Schneiderman invent "the Law" as they go along

#5  He made a promise to us the voters. He promised to do what he says he would do and not be like the normal politician that blows with the wind. We voted for him and I expect, no I demand he keep his promise. So far he has proven to be a man of his word.

#3  This whole Trump is FDR! deal was pitched to me a couple days ago by someone I actually have some opinion about, so the astroturf has been incubating for a few days now.

I find it interesting, trashing FDR to trash Trump.

Like smashing the statue of Jupiter for a casting of Mormo.

#2  “As Americans, we have to call out the con early, and actively push back on attempts to demonize undocumented people and to constrict the rights of citizens,” Ellison said.

Attaboy Keith! You don't see a conflict between letting in undocumented people and constricting the rights of citizens? Has it occurred to you the more undocumented people there are, the less of everything is left over for the citizens?

#1  Obama was the first president who did not feel bound by the rule of law. Trump is actually being very careful to follow the rules, but he has the advantage of running an executive branch that the Dims spent 8 years weaponizing.
