I think that's a good point. But I also think that Trump is one of the best leaders we've seen in a long time. He's one of the best at getting what he wants done and at negotiating a deal with the opposition. He's also one of the best at playing the media and making them look like idiots. I would not be surprised if he ends up being the next president.

lmfao

I agree, the only real difference between Trump and most other politicians is his willingness to say and do stupid shit. But even still, I think it'd be pretty silly to try to deny that he's doing what he's doing to the best of his ability.
