This a 1,000 times. I can't believe that everyone believes that people voted for Trump because of the things he did or said. They voted for him, I did at least, as a rejection of the status quo and the crony capitalism that, imho, is gutting this nation.



Maybe get ready for Trump-crony capitalism.

Let me expand on that a little bit. My point isn't to mock you or cast aspersions or whatever, it is to make it clear that there were those of us that saw things differently 3 days ago. I'm not despondent, I'm going to try to wait and see what happens with an open mind. But my expectation is very much that people who voted Trump in to 'drain the swamp' or such are not going to get what they are expecting. We are going to see a combination of Trump serving Trump and the establishment engulfing him.
