"And it will most certainly be better than the alternative would have been."

It's hard to even imagine how it could be worse.

But expectations have been way too high for way too many. Trump is a strategist, deal-maker, etc. And he's not a principled conservative AT ALL. He has no interest in subsidiarity or the 10th amendment. He's a narcissist who wants a legacy of a savior.

Just be glad that his administration, if it survives, buys us more time to work on contingency plans we might need more time for. And if it helps make it easier for us to convince people uninformed of what's at stake from our massive debt and international manipulation/exploitation and internal corruption, that may buy us even more time.
