    So Trump wants mass deportations and to end birthright citizenship, but wants to allow dreamers to stay? I don’t buy it

      His administration isn’t going to be known for its well thought out policy solutions and his supporters won’t judge him on that basis anyways. He just needs to deport a few brown people and have the press report on it so they can feel like he’s hurting the people they want hurt. That’s it.

    This is all absolute bullshit. He’s trying to pull this “People like me now, so I’m not going to do anything crazy…” bullshit.

    Something dark and sinister is on the table…

      Depending on the generals around him, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a nuke drop in the next 4 years as a “scare tactic” and “warning” to all

        My tinfoil hat theory is that he’s going to coordinate with Putin to let him drop one on either DC or NYC. He won’t do anything to stop it since it would fulfill his sadistic desire for retribution.

          NYC, where his flagship properties are? Or DC where he also has properties as well as the symbols of his power?

            The dude is an unhinged, demented lunatic. He also despises NYC.

            IMO if the hypothetical was to come to fruition, he’d go for somewhere on the west coast. Seattle or L.A.
