The author, Jeff Lord, was a political director to Ronald Reagan. He gives an interview here:

There is a great deal of speculation, founded or otherwise, that The Donald is not a “real” Republican, and once in office, he will go off on a streak of his own.
Strong comparisons are made to the rise of the Current Occupant, who promised a vague “Hope and Change”, and once elected, immediately went to an agenda unlike anything this country had ever seen, to “basically transform” America. Trading on being the “first black President”, a sufficiently large portion of Americans were lulled into accepting these vague promises, and wanting to be part of something “heroic” and “historic”, gave their vote to not only a black person of questionable origin, but to a sufficiently large majority of Democrat sycophants in the House and Senate, that he could have passed ANYTHING in his first two years of office.
We got one thing out of that, the disastrous “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010”, a monstrosity that has come to haunt the American people at every level and in no way, shape, or manner, even coming close to achieving the great claims made for it. The delivery of health care services is LESS effective than it was in 2009. It costs far more now, and the supposed advantages of access by millions who had none before being entirely negated by the number who now LOST coverage they had before through the insurance companies that once covered them withdrawing from the market for health care.
Similar fears are being raised that The Donald, once in office, will not deal effectively with dismantling and replacing this disaster, that the job will prove too great, and The Donald will grow quickly weary of the burden of duties of the Presidency, just phoning it it, only serving time until he may escape the job.
The failings of the Current Occupant are being projected upon The Donald. This is wrong, and a totally mistaken extrapolation of what The Donald is and what he can do, but it is at the heart of the objections being raised against him.
I heard Geraldo pretty much saying the same thing on Hannity last night.
Do you think we...will let him get away with not living up to his promises?
First off, unlike the people you list and allude too, Trump owes nobody. Nobody, except we the people.
IF he has a republican House and Senate...watch out, Katy Bar the Door!
This depends on how quickly the GOPe will rally behind him.
Yes, Folks, like Trump says “a little establishment can’t hurt.”
I’ve been waiting to hear Jeffrey Lord’s thoughts..thanks for the heads up.
Don’t forget the stimulus, which turned all our medical records over to the government.
