If, God forbid, Trump were elected, within 18 months it will be abundantly clear to even his most ardent supporters that he is not equipped for the job.

I don’t see that happening, because if Trump is the nominee, we will likely end up with a President Bernie Sanders. Trump would be a horrible general election candidate. His emotional immaturity and general lack of depth on the issues will be glaring and he will not carry much more than 40% of the vote.

Trump’s power, or lack thereof, will reside largely in the advisors (and advice) he assembles. He is pursuing a different model than the common politician, which realization seems to be very slow to get through a lot of thick heads here. He is here to be a midwife of ideas to make America great. He has always told us so, though not using the word midwife. (Socrates used it, however. And got poisoned to death for his trouble. The society didn’t like what he birthed from them.)

And therein is a warning. If “conservatives” (whatever that means) happen to fold their arms and pout, especially during these critical early months, what Trump assembles is going to look “liberal” and there will be nothing but self fulfilling prophecy to thank for that.
