It doesn’t even matter whether the people elect Trump or Clinton. After all, politicians sing a different tune once elected. For instance, the Chicago Tribune editorial board observed that although Barack Obama opposed the imperial tendencies of George W. Bush, once in office, Obama “wound up behaving as if he had a scepter and throne.”

Yeah, it does matter. A lot. Absolutely nothing in Trumps life indicates he'd be even remotely like Hillary under any conditions whatsoever. To arbitrarily equate the two is indefensible.

If Trump wins you can bet your sweet bippy that there will be YUGE interest in reigning in the power of the “Imperial Presidency”. Even rescinding Obama’s overreaching EOs is going to cause major constipation. BUT, if Hillary wins, this topic will vanish like spit on a hot grill.
