President Trump: Making America Great Again...

This excerpt from Wolff's book mentioned in this article seems entirely plausible regarding what Trump and his team was expecting would come from the election and its aftermath. Of course Trump wants to win, but there was talk back then of Trump launching his own media outlet or something like that, and Trumpism would have a permanent voice with him losing. And his brand actually wins. But if his presdency goes down in flames, there is a better chance Trumpism (and maybe his business) goes down and is severely damaged with it (along with the influence GOP for many years, IMO)
https://www.vox.com/explainers/2018/...ald-trump-book
The beginning of Fire and Fury is about what Trump’s team, including the candidate, expected to do after he lost. Steve Bannon “would become the de facto head of the Tea Party movement,” Kellyanne Conway “would now be one of the leading conservative voices on cable news,” Reince Priebus and Katie Walsh “would get their Republican Party back,” Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump “would have transformed themselves from relatively obscure rich kids into international celebrities,” and Melania Trump “could return to inconspicuously lunching.”
As for Donald Trump? His plans were, well, yuge. He “would be the most famous man in the world.” Alongside Roger Ailes, he was thinking of launching his own television network — Trump TV, a network by him, about him, and for the millions and millions of people he had proven he understood better than the Republican Party, Fox News, or Paul Ryan.
“I don’t think about losing because it isn’t losing,” Trump reportedly told Ailes a week before the election, when he and everyone else thought he was going to lose. “We’ve totally won.”

LOL. More vintage Trump. After his immigration dog and pony show live on TV where he says he will accept whatever Congress can come up with, a group of senators comes up with a compromise plan and Trump immediately throws it out. What a moron. But not in the least bit surprising.

Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

I think Drumpf's approval rating just got a bump in redneck voting class.
To get an idea of what countries Mr. Drumpf was talking about I googled "shithole countries" and this was the first that came up...
India Still World’s Greatest Shithole
What does Drumpf have against Indians? A few of those guys are good engineers."If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.
"I honestly believe saying someone is a smart lawyer is damning with faint praise. The smartest people become engineers and scientists." -SU.
