Couldn't agree more about the first part -- but, I don't think the latter is necessarily true. He's shown he has a lot of conservative impulses too. What I think is key is that they're impulses -- abrupt, thoughtless decisions based on whatever happens to me going through his mind at the time. And whether conservative or leftist, the impulses seem to tend toward the authoritarian side. That was what concerned me the most about Trump, and this is an excellent example of it.He's already walking it back today -- wish I could have been a fly on the wall in the West Wing last night. But maybe this will give some of the Trump fanatics pause. He's on your side til he ain't.But he has spent the day walking it back, and that's a small comfort. Well, when he wasn't starting trade wars that is.
