The key is how much the GOP and Trump will see eye to eye. There is certainly a blank card here for the GOP to do whatever it wants, and we know that the GOP is all about cutting everything it can get its hands on that even smells of government, so some of these wild speculations might well happen, but equally some might not. After all, we had eight years of Dubya before this, and while America didn't exactly prosper, it didn't exactly crash and burn either. Well...not for reasons that were under Dubyas control anyway.
The biggest problem, in my opinion, is that he was elected despite what he said, which has basically said that it's ok to be like Trump, it's ok to say what Trump said, and do what he did or was alledged to have done, and that's going to create some very nasty situations for people.
And then there's Pence...I feel bad for women and the LBTGQ community with him around as VP, it's a definite setback for them, but the people who voted for Trump don't really care about that, so what can you do?
