A candidate can't do squat without a party and a party is a scam without social capital and the mandate of the people.
Today's conditions are totally ridiculous and the parties are trash. I resort to impressions and experience from my career in construction contracting, for my sense of who Trump is.
For the most part, he is doing what I would do to deal with the conditions. Of course, it would bring out the vicious opposition of the dirt-bags who have created this mess.
And I would be honored to see who my enemies are: perhaps the most evil regime to infest US politics, since the slave-state governments.
