Trump is a grifter and an opportunist.

Golden child rides accolades into office because he's half black and a new age is ordained.... in reality they run guns to cartels, interfere in Eastern European politics, astronomically increase the cost of healthcare, and set a coup operation in motion against the guy he laughed at follow him into office...
I mean there are SO MANY BETTER WAYS TO BLEED CASH FROM THE GOVERNMENT.... JFC, look at all the cash going through USAID coming back into politicians coffers.
Nah, it just doesn't pass the sniff test. In addition, all of the personal anecdotes over the years indicates that's not his character.... and those stories predate 2015.
Tigers don't change their stripes for better or ill.
His supposed republican transformation simply isn’t real. But rather a facade he puts on himself to sucker support from the MAGA faithful.

He closed the fcuking border in days....WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME A REPUBLICAN POLITICIAN KEPT HIS PROMISE?
That's why MAGA is just NOT gonna shift away from him no matter what... that's why he's Teflon. Because EVERY conservative knows there isn't a single Republican out there thats more reliable than Trump.
If it's a facade... meh, I'll take it because he's still kept more promises than any other Republican since Gingrich and Reagan.
All the while he destroys the guard rails in our system that usually inhibits the graft

If you follow the money it’s blatantly obvious but there are few people left in government who are willing to take the risk to stop him.

They LITERALLY read government press releases as if they were legitimately sourced news. I mean... russiagate FFS??? Seems like the leftists could use some investigative skills to expose this blatant corruption
As for the last bit.. good. The fewer leftists left in the government the better. I hope more flee my tax support.
