I feel the greatest problem is his supporters do not care. They don’t care that he constantly contradicts himself

I am satisfied that Trump would have some positive effects. He would delay the descent of the US into the Balkanized societies in much of the rest of the world. The barrios of the third world would not migrate and expand here (we already have enough). The European muslim no-go zones will not take root here. English would predominate and with that a cultural dilution would be avoid.

Trump would cut taxes (as would Cruz and Rubio), and get American business to repatriate profits and get the American economy moving. Trump would raise tariffs (Cruz and Rubio would not). That would have a beneficial effect in some areas, not in others.

Trump named two serious SCOTUS candidates. They were trashed here by some but that was specious.

Everything else would be some sort of crap shoot. We just can't predict how he will come down on any issue, and what policies he might choose. We can only hope to get strong leaders in Congress to oppose the stupid stuff.

As for the strong man, fascist innuendo, to some extent America has it coming. I predicted long ago that's how we would end up although I figured ours would be a little more like Pinochet.

I’m less resigned to giving up my freedom on a whim that the dizzy dilettante Donald will do anything of value. He’s hired more illegal aliens than anyone else in the campaign, and he’s employed more Chinese in China for his products than anyone else. Why we’re to believe he’s so deeply committed to the issues you site is an open question, especially in view of just how many other things he’s betrayed over the years.

Truly amazing.
