Trump is a trojan horse the Republican establishment will cravenly ride into power in order to perpetuate the same sell out America to the highest bidder policies they've been persuing since Reagan. Think demolishing the EPA is going to give you a job? Think again. Large energy firms will just have a bigger profit margin as now they can poplute more while paying less for it. Who gets the shaft, you? Like voat? Well now thats another $20 dollars for the 'fake news-o-tainment' plan to your now new mega-ISP. Trump's one true gift, getting people excited about what he's excited about at any one point in time, is pretty much worthless now because he actually has to govern. And look whose he's picking for top positions in his administration. The same old career politicians, party hacks, and conservative wonks that sucked up to him during the campaign. Because he values 'loyality'. Enjoy Pres. coattails as the person running the show won't be Trump just as much as it isn't Obama.
P.S. Before you instantly retreat into your 'Oh look at the winey Hillary supporter' cozy corner, I ALWAYS vote third party. Real substantive change will never come by flipping the same coin once every 4 to 8 years. Trump sold out the second he ran as a Republican.

he won when he ran as a Republican. I share some concerns but he is doing something about the Lobbyists who buy power and insider influence. Can you name the people he has appointed and explain their failings?
