“Trump has no respect for or clarity about Constitutionally enumerated and separated powers. Even if he was going to do what he promises (which I doubt), the exercise as promised would set terrible precedents should another leftist ever occupy the oval office.”

The precedents have already been set, so you really have no point.

And how do you ‘know’ Trump has no knowledge of how our government was set up? You’re just guessing on that

Trump seems to have an interesting approach, granted this is based on glimpses of him that have appeared in media such as Rolling Stone so this is not on the biblical assurance level, but it seems to make sense.

Trump seems to want to be a mirror to the public in a process of refining a consensus of what it would need to make America great. And he also seems to be an idea sorter and winnower. The input into such a candidate has far more influence on the final result, than input to traditional candidates would. Some people call this an amateur run of a clueless liberal. I’d cautiously call this opportunity. We aren’t used to such an attitude in the political sphere. Last time we heard serious talk like this was the “Contract With America.”

At any rate it beats being “community organized” like Barack Obama has put maximum effort into doing to America. And for whatever reason, the idea is still selling well after six months of wear. It may be time to view this from the standpoint of a shining sun in which we either will or won’t make hay.

Poppycock. You just want a king. I suggest you review 1 Samuel 8.

From what he says HE will do that (Constitutionally) will require either Congress or the consent of the courts.
