If he does half of what he says, I'll be impressed.

If we would have got Cruz though there'd be no question.

Going to the White House and calling Obama a "great man" and someone he'll be working with after calling him stupid for 2 years and promising to repeal his signature accomplishment seems a bit concerning. I'm not saying Trump shouldn't be respectful and polite. But seems like in 2 days he's moved off all the rhetoric and straight to center. He may end up slightly left of center. Will he even do anything he promised?

Does anyone expect a wall to actually be built? I don't.

Embassy moved to Jerusalem? No chance.

A conservative supreme court justice? I think thats within the realm of possibility.

A full repeal and replace of Obamacare, on day 1 (or by day 100)? Maybe, but I'll be surprised if he actually does much about it. Maybe a couple little tweaks, then claim he fulfilled his pledge.

I'm so glad we don't have Hillary.

I'm rooting for Trump.

I'm highly sceptical though and have low expectations.
