On the other appointments, we will see. I understand that he is going to negotiate the Iran deal with moderate Arab states and on moving the Embassy to Jerusalem, he says he will do it by "consensus". That probably means it won't get done.

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.
