My expectations aren’t delusional, I just expected him to halfway keep his promises to bring change to Washington, but it appears he’s the only one who’s undergoing a transition.
And I’m hardly alone here on FR, there are many I see every day who want Trump to put the gloves back on, calling for him to fire Mueller on every thread. I’m not sure that’s the right move at this point, but he needs to something to get back on the offensive, and fast. Even if he ends up completely vindicated by the time this is over, he’s been kicked around quite a bit at this point, and has lost all the intimidation factor he had when he took office. That was something that WE his supporters gave him, that I feel he’s mostly squandered, by trying to be PC when the other side is playing for keeps. And no, whatever he says on Twitter doesn’t count, it just makes him look even weaker.
He has also ended up as a president with very few political allies in Washington -- because he's basically an Independent who commandeered the Republican primary system to get nominated last year. This only makes it harder for him to get anything done that requires action by Congress. For the first time in his life, he's not really the boss at all. He has to answer to a "board of directors" on most of his agenda.
Donald Trump is exactly who I expected him to be. I don't see why anyone would be disappointed in that.
