No, he's just a puppet for the old Bush/Rove/McConnell clan.
How is he a puppet? His record is vastly more conservative than either Jeb or George W. Bush. He governs like a member of the House Freedom Caucus, which used to be considered a good thing around here. You only think he’s “a puppet” because moderate Republicans and Independent voters actually LIKE HIM, which is much more than Trump can say.
