Trump Redux: The Death of Democracy, or Overblown Hyperbole?

[Trollheart]

Now that the unthinkable - but perhaps inevitable - has happened, and America and the world at large is faced with a second Trump administration, I'd like to use this thread to keep an eye on what he does, and what he does not do. I'm definitely not one for giving him a second chance, but is it even possible he may have learned from the mistakes of his previous term? Will he even have seen them as such? Will he keep the promises/act on the threats he made during his campaign, and how will America suffer, or even benefit from his presidency?

Post your thoughts here. I intend to try to keep pace with his progress (or regress) over the next four years, in as much as I can. If nothing else, this thread will serve as a place to discuss, moan about, air your fears about and comment on the new presidency.

For now, the promises/threats on his "first day" are:

* Deportation of all undocumented/illegal immigrants, no matter how long they've been in the USA

* Large tariffs on foreign imports (10 - 20%)

* Weaponise the Department of Justice by firing "disloyal" employess and installing his own yes men and women

* Clear house in Federal organisations such as the FBI, again replacing those he considers not loyal to him with those who will rubberstamp his decisions
