I hope he and his movement is not turning him into a cult like figure. In the end he might end up believing his own hype like Ms.Rousey. He is neither god nor emperor.

I don't think so- at least, we in the alt-Right are not. The die-hard Trump supporters probably are, but folks like me have long recognised and argued that Donald Trump is a deeply flawed man who nonetheless is the only leading political and media figure who is giving a real voice to the anger and frustrations of the America that the establishment has forgotten.

Even his most ardent supporters would likely be happy to admit that Mr. Trump is far from perfect. One of the biggest complaints that I personally have about him is that he is extremely inconsistent, even now that he has gained the Presidency, at least in the details of what he plans to do.

But there is no doubt in my mind that the core love of America that motivates him is genuine. If he plays his cards right and doesn't give in to the temptation to moderate course too much, he could very well become the greatest President since Ronald Reagan.

I wish you a happy 2017. Cheers.

Likewise mate.

I do give credit to the man who was able to take a million dollars and grow it into 8.75 billion dollars. He has more real world experience where he has failed as much as he has succeeded. I hope he delivers and we need to be cautiously optimistic because who knows what will happen in the next 4 yrs? It is interesting that the greatly reviled Octopus in the financial industry has found its way back into his cabinet. I do agree with Rand Paul about some of his cabinet picks.
Anyway, this is my rant for 2016. I wish you a happy 2017. Cheers.
