The guy is a nutcase, batshit crazy. But then everyone he's appointed so far is crazy one way or another. It's frightening to have an entire cabinet of people out of touch with reality. What is equally frightening is that 37% of Republicans have now followed Trump to adoring Putin. I mean Putin, ex-KGB chief that stole $80 billion from the country, and enriched his closest friends and has become an absolute dictator. A man whose goal it is to destroy the democracies around the world and the man who murders people if they get in his way and has increasingly shut down their free press through intimidation and murder. And 37% of the Republican Party thinks that is just fine because Trump said that Putin was better than Obama. That's what lies down the rabbit hole we are about to descend. Trump will not divest and thumb his nose at anyone that tries to make him and his supporters will think that is just fine, just like they thought it was fine that his entire cabinet is filled with billionaires, generals and right wing crazy people. One of the big questions is going to be, will he pull away from NATO and embrace Russia and will he start a war with China? Well that and will he go along with Republicans's attempts to cut Social Security and privatize it, saying that is what's needed to save it, and turning Medicare and Obama care over to the private sector. Everybody should watch the movie the rainmaker with Matt Damon to see what happens as often as not when you have private insurance. That sort of thing virtually never happens with public insurance like Medicare and Obama care!
