Telling us what Trump "is going to" do is like telling us how good the brownie in the vending machine will be because of the superlatives on its wrapper. We hope it's so good that that it shames what Auntie Reagan used to make; we'll be thrilled if it is half that good; and we'll be satisfied if it, at the very least, isn't terrible.
However, unless your name is Stan Nostradamus, prophetic claims are little more than wishful ("magical") thinking. It is possibile the vindictive Trump will sit in the oval office and vengefully wield the power of the office like a club. He may try to expand the extra-executive power that the corrupt and feckless Congress (both parties) allowed Obama to initiate, and act as The Boss wherever and whenever he chooses (separation of powers be damed). The Framers warned us this would happen. George Washington was towering exception to the nature of Man.
The point? We must now all be Missourians and resolutely tell President Trump, "Show me." We must stay vigilant. We must actively hold Hudson, Burr, Tillis AND our state politicians accountable for holding the President accountable and confined within the limits of his constitutional authority.
