...Mr. Trump dismissed talk about a split inside his White House between aides with a nationalist or globalist orientation. “Hey, I’m a nationalist and a globalist,” he said. “I’m both. And I’m the only one who makes the decision, believe me.”.....

This might get interesting
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

This is what we get when we elect an ignorant guy to be President for the sole reason that he's ignorant......   :shrug:

   He's also a Conservative with very Liberal views, and as a Briefer pointed out weeks ago, He is a Blank Slate that anyone can write anything on and claim it as the Gospel Truth.
   A lot of his policy decisions appears to reflect the last person he talked to, sadly, it's another indication he has 'NO' core principles.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

Exactly.  He obviously didn't possess the basic knowledge of government when he took the oath of office and he's learning as he goes along.  He himself is admitting that being president is more difficult than he thought. Thank God he's selected some military personnel with some experience and knowledge and I'm hoping Pence is having a broader role in his administration than what is normal for a VP.

Let's see...he's a liberal, populist/globalist, who ran under the Republican umbrella ... how could people not see that?

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

There are globalist streaks in many famous so-called Nationalists.

Think about most of the famous dictators and empire builders. They all claimed to be Nationalists. Did they give up being Nationalists when they started trying to build their empire? No, they still held the mantle. They used it as a rallying cry to expand their empires. They were National Globalists in that they wanted their view of Nationalism to rule their world. They wanted to be on top, usually by force.

I think they probably did, but didn't care.

That's the way a personality cult works.

I'm praying that he at least keeps some good people around him, and has enough humility (though that's doubtful) to consult with them when he actually does anything.

That way he can keep saying stupid things without taking the country down with him......

Trump is all things to all people at any given moment because he has no core principles save for himself and his own aggrandizement, self-importance and braggadocio.

The guy apparently wants to jump-start WWIII when our military is largely at WWI levels thanks to Obama.

What an ultra maroon!
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

I said all along that he speaks using an old sales technique of never quite finishing a comment. It allows the listener to decide for themselves what they want to hear.

Its how he did business with the government also.  Everyone should remember that he would bend which ever way would benefit him.  So no core principles. 

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.
