Trump would make a deal with the devil if he thought it would get him accolades. He's a know-nothing who cares about no one but himself.

Gentlemen, think of what he represents. The man did not get as wealthy as he is worrying about the wellbeing of autoworkers in MI. Hell, the people who once employed those workers only did so until it was more financially advantageous to DUMP THEM and get the work done elsewhere. That's just how it is. It's the nature of such folks. Anyone who voted for this guy, buying the line that he was in it to "...make great deals for the American people." is a fool. The instinct will always be to do what's "..good for the business.." and the bottom line. If people get in the way...... Well, it's not personal, it's just business.

Is Trump Left or Right? IMO, Trump is whatever gets him elected and puts him in the position to influence regulation and reduce taxes on his business.

A lot of people are in for a disappointment.

Or, maybe not.

Because slick talkers like Trump, (Or Reagan.), are also very good at convincing people the screwing is for their own good.

Wasn't it Samuel Clemmons who wrote; "The most successful politician is the one who strips you of everything worth having and leaves you THANKING him for it."?

Right.

Trump is probably smarting at the fact that he cannot fire Mueller easily anymore.
And I also wonder why he fired Comey if Bannon thought it was fatal political error.
Chances are that Ryan and McConnel are not very keen on being seen showering rose petals at Trump (kissing butt) and so he is pouting and trying to get even.

As our resident Trump expert whell has posted above, Trump has no ideology to protect.
Like the George Harrison song, It's I, me and mine, all through the day and night.

So here is more proof that Trump is becoming a Lefty.
Quote:
WASHINGTON — President Trump confirmed on Thursday morning that he supports legislation that would protect young undocumented immigrants from deportation and would deliver a “massive” increase in border security — but not with a wall on the southern border.

Mr. Trump’s comments, both in Washington and in Florida, affirmed the broad parameters of an agreement that Democratic leaders unilaterally announced Wednesday night after dinner with the president at the White House.
Perhaps H--> can now announce that she has all along been a closet Republican and will be joining the ranks of the GOP to fight Trump.
What is that line about politics and strange bedfellows?

Looks like she has the "playing the victim" part of it down.

Could this mean he's no longer taking daily belly rubs from Poxy fiends?

Is he going to destroy our wertgeschätztes Feindbild?

(appreciated concept of the enemy)

This man will always remain absolutely unpredictable. However - this way he will survive four years as president and perhaps even more than four years...

For contrast, Jeff Sessions said this formally announcing the end to the DACA program.
Quote:
“There is nothing compassionate about the failure to enforce immigration laws. … Failure to enforce the laws in the past has put our nation at risk of crime, violence and even terrorism. … The effect of this unilateral executive amnesty, among other things, contributed to a surge of unaccompanied minors on the southern border that yielded terrible humanitarian consequences. It also denied jobs to hundreds of thousands of Americans by allowing those same jobs to go to illegal aliens.”
Most of what Sessions claimed has been debunked. Then Trump said this yesterday.
Quote:
“Does anybody really want to throw out good, educated and accomplished young people who have jobs, some serving in the military? Really!” Trump tweeted yesterday. “They have been in our country for many years through no fault of their own — brought in by parents at young age.”
A real change in policy or a vendetta against Sessions?
