Depending on the issue at hand, he is portrayed as either an Evil Autocrat that will rule with an iron fist.

Or a stupid clown that will be steamrolled by congress and his advisors.

You really should pick one and stick with it.

Switching back and forth makes you looks like idiots.

It is often the case that evil autocrats are clowns (Kim Jong-un, Hugo Chávez).

Kim Jong whateverthe fuck perhaps, but I don't agree with you about Chavez at all.

As for Trump, what I am hoping for is that he will be a "Benevolent Dictator".

When and how did you switch your allegiance and devotion to Trump from Bernie since the contrast is horrific?

You have to ask? It's a classic case of the "Me Generation" combined with the "Jack" principle.

The question was directed at me, not you.

I will thank you not to answer for me.

And after my 72 hour cease fire is over, I will do more than thank you.

The way I see it, the Trump people and the Bernie people are natural allies. We are all being screwed by the corrupt system and we all want a revolution. My first choice was to be a part of Bernie's revolution. But since that wasn't to be, I'm going for the next best thing. The Trump revolution.

"It's not a very good revolution, but it's the only one we have, and I want to be a part of it."

What I don't understand is why more people don't understand that.

Sorry no, Bernie's supporters are principled whereas Trump's supporters do not know any better. Trump's primary and only interest is to enrich himself and his family, and he will do this with impunity, if not we get President Pence.

If you read his daily tweets, it's easy to see where he is going with his presidency.

"If I read his daily tweets"?

Do you realize that this is a thread criticizing where Trump gets his news from and you are admitting that you get yours from "Daily Tweets"?

He's going to be The Donald and a large portion of this country is okay with that. Any damage to my rice bowl will come from Congress and I've no problem with a military withdrawal from Europe. Satire will hit new highs and lows, and thanks to Global Cleansing it's a top down day here. What's a daily tweet?

Since you asked.

This is a very good strategy on Trump's part, if it is indeed his strategy. Begin each morning with a few tweets, media frenzy follows and he is now directly controlling the news cycle.
