I'm sure Sally Yates knew exactly what Trump would do. He's the Pavlov's Doggie POTUS. We have much bigger problems than that. Woke up this morning and learned that Trump (via his advisor/aid Steve Miller) didn't have the courtesy of even informing his cabinet members or pertinent nominees including the Secretary of Defense , Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and other government department heads who should have been advised of his ban on immigration from certain countries. Worse, it is being reported that staff members of some departments necessary to initiate the ban were required to sign non-disclosure statements prohibiting them from discussing or even telling the department head for whom they worked what they were being tasked to do. I don't like this. I am afraid that the base of Trump's support, once they wake up and realize the dictatorial nature of his governing style, are going to revolt big time. Right now they are reveling in his kick-ass, take no prisoners style, saying he's just doing what he said he would do. That's fine. It's the methods in which he is doing it that is absolutely un-American and wrong. I don't believe the "base of Trump's support" gives a **** about anything except their admiration and joy for his hate-mongering, political uncorrectness and dictatorial style. My guess is that the courts will uphold the unconstitutionality of Trump's Muslim ban, and a Muslim ban it is. It clearly violates the First and Fourteenth Amendments. OF course, *then* Trump will claim he is not subject to the jurisdiction of the courts, if he hasn't done that already. Trump really is a fascist in his heart. Steve Bannon, a neo-Nazi, will encourage and abet that, and most of Trump's intended cabinet are nothing more than incompetent suck-ups. Trump is leading us into really dangerous territory. George W. Bush must be taking some special secret delight in this...with Trump in the White House, America will soon have someone who will be considered "the worst president in anyone's memory." I won't go as far as calling Trump a fascist. At least not yet. I think he is operating as if the federal government is a privately owned business where the CEO has ultimate say and authority in establishing rules and policies (within certain governing laws that pertain to business). Perhaps if Trump Industries was a publicly held company with requirements to notify shareholders of significant changes to policy he would have a better understanding of what being POTUS is all about. |
