Talking Is Trump becoming a Lefty?

Sure looks like it. After all he once was Democrat or was that just to get the Clintons to attend his wedding.

First the deal with 'Chuck & Nancy' on the debt ceiling.
And now an agreement to make DACA permanent, again with the dynamic duo of Chuck & Nancy?
Then working with Chuck & Nancy on border security without the wall on the table? Really, no wall, no frigging wall??

What's next, Trump working with Bernie on a Single Payer plan for all???

WTF is happening in the White House, a hug fest and at this rate, better put a suicide watch on Paul and Mitch.
Quote:
“We had a very productive meeting at the White House with the president,” the statement said. “The discussion focused on DACA. We agreed to enshrine the protections of DACA into law quickly, and to work out a package of border security, excluding the wall, that’s acceptable to both sides.”

Haven't you heard? He's being drugged! Must be true, it's from that paragon of journalistic integrity, Alex Jones.

Trumps is just channeling his Lizard Brain. Thinking of only survival right now. He is willing to do or say anything for adulation and applause. No ideology or ethics out of this one, a fool to think otherwise.

It's just more of his psychopathology. Donald is affiliated with nobody but Donald. And at some point, that includes his nazi, klan, neo-confederate, nativist poor disenfranchised white base.

If Donald can't get his need for his own brand of accomplishment fulfilled with the party that helped get him elected, he will not hesitate to make a "deal" with members the other party, or the nazi party, or some asshole sovereign citizens, or the United Daughters of the Confederacy.

QFT!
He is a yes man, no man. Says yes to whatever he thinks will get him points or room to manipulate, but does what ever the hell he wants. The only thing that is at least somewhat reliable is to use what he said as what is not likely going to happen.

I've said this before: he's never been a "righty", and he'll never be a "lefty". I don't think he views issues through a "political lens". I think his instincts my lead him to less "activist government" approaches to issues, but even at that he's not ideological enough to surrender to his instincts at the expense of making a deal.

I am tying to parse this, but it's not easy....

It seems to say:

Since he isn't ideological enough, he will not surrender his instincts and therefore he'll make a deal.

There, is that it?
