No, Trump absolutely will be President for all Americans, you just have to remember that he views the President as an authoritarian position. Being "everyone's President" means telling everyone what to do, and having them obey. It helps to remember the interviews early on where he claimed he would order the military to target and kill civilians. When told they wouldn't obey this order, because it was illegal, Trump's response was basically a shocked "...no, they HAVe to. I'm the President." speng31b fucked around with this message at 16:57 on Nov 20, 2016 |

It won't matter if he deleted it after taking office because the press that he's going to continue to alienate and gently caress over will be all over that poo poo. And with no other candidate to draw their centrist focus, it's all Trump... even the lovely media "reductively present all two things equal" won't help.

I think we can revise "things don't matter" to "things matter less than we thought, especially when there's literally anything else going on to draw attention to." After inauguration day it's all Trump, though.

Jazerus posted:maybe the republicans are just playing along until he gets into office so they can impeach him and install pence This would never happen. Trump is the devil's bargain they made to stay in power, if they don't kiss his ring and swear fealty he can wreck them. The irony is, despite defeating Hillary, Trump is still far better equipped to quickly and completely ruin any given conservative politician than Dems on an individual basis. They absolutely cannot oppose him.

Vladimir Putin posted:He's not even the loving president yet so this claim of being gracious and not prosecuting her while the recount is underway makes absolutely no sense. It makes more sense when you remember in his life he's surrounded himself with yes-men corporate lawyers whose entire jobs are to tell him he can sue whoever he wants for anything, with the knowledge that 99% of the time he'll forget about it within a day. I'm guessing he thinks the Justice Dept is basically the same thing.

Bush was a well loved good ole boy cowboy boot wearing Texas governor. Trump's a billionaire Yankee who's in the process of pissing off his own base by reneging on most of his promises before inauguration day. We'll see. I don't see that working out well for Trump.

Sure but just to be clear the context for that chain of quotes was comparing Bush to Trump in terms of their ability to use eminent domain to take land from rural Texans without arousing ire, so I'm sticking with that.

Nichael posted:But then again, I also said Hillary Clinton would almost certainly be president so who the gently caress knows. This may be an unpopular opinion right now but I think as time goes on the "all bets are off" takeaway here is going to dissolve. The rules still exist, they're just not the rules we thought. And I'll probably live to regret saying this, but I do think that Donald Trump being an unstable lunatic will make him an unpopular and ineffective president out of the gate.

There will be no impeachment proceedings against Trump. Pence can puppet the no-puppet no puppet you're the puppet just fine as VP why would anyone put their neck out to impeach and just get what already exists. If they play their cards right they can get 16 yrs of Pence. For the first 8 they just have a real dumb figurehead that seems to have a disapproval floor and is essentially immune to all controversy.

Fidel Castronaut posted:What makes you think, given all that has happened, that Pence is capable of controlling Trump in the slightest? Because Trump doesn't want to be president? He doesn't want to do the day-to-day job of being president. He wants Pence to do that. He doesn't have to "control" Trump, just play nice with his ego and then do the job. Trump will say things that contradict what Pence does, but ultimately Pence will still do those things and noone will care.

Fidel Castronaut posted:They are in a bad place. Impeaching a republican president is an admission that your party is a mess but if Trump starts unpopular wars and fucks the economy, then republicans are going to have to distance themselves like they did with Bush if they want to stay in office. If you're really cynical, they could just be gambling that whatever he does to gently caress the country won't "kick in" its full effects til the next inevitable dem term, and left will take the brunt of the fallout.
