Spending a few anonymous minutes in a voting booth a few times a decade is never going to result in restrained government, Trump or no.
The drawback of not being interested or involved in an ongoing basis in your own self-government is that when you see a critical situation, it’s too late. Someone else is going to get their way, a lot of times just by showing up. Fail to plan, plan to fail.
Yea you’re right. That being said, the people who are telling us that Trump hasn’t planned for this are the same people who didn’t realize that he was planning to run for President let alone win. They didn’t know his strategy to run, didn’t know his strategy to win and I’m supposed to believe that THEY know his strategy at the convention. Not bloody likely. The problem with thinking you’re the smartest person in the room is that you can never imagine someone smarter.
