The Perfect Politician Is A Non-Politician
Ideally yes ...but anyone can be corrupted ...he is not untouchable— Why can't he be manipulated like anyone else?
Also professional polticans aren't bad they dedicate their whole lives to studying how our government works...how our laws affect people...and our economy ....
Whereas I don't care for Hillary, Trump isn't my hero. Never was.
He's good at what he does.
He's moving very fast to center and that's going to appeal to "some" of those that that didn't vote for him.
Meanwhile, he may also do some things which are agreeable to those who supported him.
Contrary to those, on the right's impression, to some extent, he's shedding/trimming some of his campaign stances.
That wall? It's already been there. It's just a little more than a fence in need of repair.
The deportations? He's not going to enact a mass deportation program. Likely, He'll do something
like offer amnesty to those who actually want to be here and have them go through the process of
citizenship.
NATO, China and Hillary - don't be surprised by what turns out. Those issues "may" get the axe.
IF they go after Hillary, and convict her, he'll pardon her.
China, You cannot increase tariffs and expect the people to accept it because it raises the prices
of the products on the shelf. So..... that idea is probably going to get scrapped.
NATO... he's already commented on the value of NATO.. At best, he'll probably be very influential in
reforming NATO policies.
Remember that a successful businessman knows how to operate a business.
Politics is business.
My cynicism about his campaign promises is being proven correct, already.
The Democrat in Republican Clothing—
Those on the right will not be happy to hear that.

Keeps people guessing.
What did he say? He'd keep people in suspense?
JFK was a Gemini.

I am sick of hearing about it. The election is over and your idiot Trump won. Now deal with it for the next 4 years. In the words of Obama, "Quit whining."
I'm not whining.
But you are.
And...
I'm still here.

If the Clinton Foundation investigation shows what is inferred from some of the stories I have been reading, Trump would be hard pressed to actually go through with a pardon. He would lose a huge chunk of support.
On immigration, he will most likely control the border, although I doubt the tale about the "magnificent wall".
I think he does mean it about deporting the illegals that have shown a propensity to violate the laws.
His enforcement of current immigration law will probably cause many to self-deport--although imagine if the policy was as strict as Mexico's with respect to illegal immigration. The wailing and gnashing of teeth would be louder than what is going on now.
The NATO relationship is going to be tricky. On the one hand, Putin has already contacted Trump (note, ignores Obama) to extend an olive branch. I think you will see a serious reconfiguration of how NATO is structured. Most people here are probably unaware that Russia had a proposal of a different security arrangement re: Europe. That was nixed by the input of the EU in Brussels.

No.. as long as people like you exist, there needs be a hero.
Wherever there are liberals, wherever there are feminists, wherever there are
spoiled brats and political crybabies gone puffy and blue.... I'll Be There!
Don't look now, blue moon, but you're turning into a blueberry.

The perfect politician is one who is thrust into the position and didn't seek the power that a particular office holds.
I can agree with that.
And the greatest leaders who actually led the charge into battle.
The ones whom their subordinates adore.

Say what you will about his failures. Trump is going to be the next president.
