When a Trump presidency started to become a real possibility I thought a
little bit about what would happen if it actually become true. He has a
lot of experience dealing with diverse people and the US congress might

A lot of people thought what a disaster that Little Ronnie Ray Gun would
be during his primaries. All in all he did work out reasonably well.
