There's virtually no indication that Donald Trump will be making Presidential decisions. Until he came under serious pressure from Republicans to resign, Trump had no intention of living in the White House. Trump is indeed a wastrel party-girl who has clearly has no interest in work and, according to his employees, has never before had a position which required him to show up every day. The fact that Trump is the first President to have his Vice-President Mike Pence receiving all of the highly confidential "Daily Presidential Briefings" is astounding . All because he could not tolerate to sit still for more than the first two briefings. Yet in spite of his lack of information on world events, or having any interest in them, Trump continues to meet with world leaders who unlike Trump are extraordinarily well-briefed on issues. If Mitt Romney is chosen as Secretary of State, other nations will be spared much of the internal chaos in the Trump White House. It's clearly difficult for others to control what Donald Trump says when his mouth gets wound up. But it's going to be very difficult for Trump to make any decisions which his VP and other war-monger Republican advisors do not agree with. If Trump becomes a problem I guarantee the Republicans will gladly impeach Trump before they allow him to make the type of uninformed, Illegal and senseless decisions he's famous for in his businesses. As with the Reagan administration it will be sometimes difficult to discern who is actually making each decision. Alexander Haig who was supposedly Reagan's Chief-of-Staff, the man who directs who will handle each task and who sees the President famously called the Reagan White House a "ghost ship" where no one including himself had no idea who was making the decisions. General Haig metaphorically added, "You could hear the clank of the rigging and the creak of the timbers, and could occasionally see a crew member scurrying past. But who was directing their actions? Was it Ed Meese, or Nancy Reagan? That was the problem, nobody knew." The difference was Ronald Reagan had Alzheimer's Disease so had little or no interest in making Presidential decisions. Trump may be likely to try to place himself into the decision-making process at unpredictable times. The net result is the Trump administration is going to be wildly unpredictable and often self-contradictory.
