As one who has been posing the "Washington vs The Rest Of Us" confrontation for the past several years, allow me to take issue with your construct.
Trump is more than a figurehead and a weapon. He's your "Man On Horseback". And it is HIS politics, not yours, which will rule Washington...after he makes peace wih the beast of DC.
So, you'd damn well better get it right before you enter the battle.
It can’t be worse than the alternative.

Donald Trump's bidnis history is a veritable Who's Who of Postmodern Organized criminals.
Editor's Note, 8/10/15: Four years ago, Wayne Barett reported shady business deals ahead of Trump's flirtation with a White House run. After first exposing Trumpâs ties to organized crime in his 1992 book, Barrett looked into his most recent business dealings and discovered the following:
* One associate who was an "unindicted co-conspirator" in a massive 2000 stock swindleâand escaped prison only by helping to convict 19 others, including six members of New York crime families
* Two associates who served prison time on cocaine charges
* Another partner prosecuted for trafficking underage girls after a dramatic helicopter raid on a yacht off the Turkish coast
* A pending lawsuit against Trump Soho that alleges daughter Ivanka, among others, made fraudulent misrepresentations
I'll stick with the "figure head" whose "family" history only has 1 (one) wife, and has experienced the direct negative effects of state terrorism (communism).
