Trump is not the type of guy to function under anyone in Congress. There's not a single person in Congress that can reign over Trump. He just humiliated Romney. I agree that Obama was way too passive and timid, but you can have a strong leader without them being a crazy man or killer. FDR and Lincoln, were such leaders. JFK was such a leader and McGovern would've been such a leader. It's always best to just have an intelligent, kind, sane, strong leader. <<Trump's under control by Congress and they won't let him just go nuts.
