So, Let's Play a Game of Presidential What-If

As I currently don't know the poll standings, and I've been given the distinct impression that Donald Trump has drastically caught up. I think it's fair to start thinking about perhaps some things Trump might enact as a President. I'm interested to see what you guys think he would try to enact (not that it would actually pass).

Me personally, I think he'd be going down a long checklist of blaming minority groups and pushing for legislation regarding watch-lists and deportations of people that were born here.

Edit: And yes, I do actually believe that Donald is that stupid. And yes, I do believe that a large grouping of his supporter base would blindly accept and cheer for what he does until something happens to them.

Actually recent polls have predicted Trump LOSING right now but it is still statistically close

I don't know if he will have enough support from congress to push anything meaningful through, assuming he even tries. For I get the impression that he has no real interest in doing President things.

As for Hilary, she might actually be worse. She seems like a very plastic politician. One who lobbyists can take advantage of with a big enough cheque. I just don't get the impression that she cares enough about people. Don't get me wrong, neither does Mr Trump but which one knows more about how to handle congress? And which one has the better political connections? Neither are good people but one has more pull than the other and that could mean bad things for the world.

If it is a matter of money, Hilary could theorectically be bribed to do the right thing. Trump couldn't be bribed to do ANYTHING.

The Hillary being bought thing will never happen if she's President. For some time she did take money for speeches, but it's not really direct corruption. It's just inflated because people (like me) wanted Bernie so badly. She does lie, but that's not fiscal corruption. Voting for Hillary would really not be that different than voting for Obama again.

I'm not sure what to think of a Trump presidency. Would he shift back to being a liberal? Would he just follow his advisors? Would he actually follow through with what he says? If he doesn't flop again and follows through with what he thinks, we'd probably fall into a recession like 2008 if not more that destroy the global economy.

I don't think Trump will really be that bad. Yeah, he's an idiot, and yeah, he's not a good guy, but most of what he says is just for show.

Or so we hope. Here is the thing that terrifies me:

What if he follows through on every campaign promise?

Is congress going to force Mexico to build a wall? Or kick out Muslims? I can't see that happening.

I should mention that this thread was made with the idea of him actually trying and succeeding to enact these things, regardless of the possibility of it happening. I was more interested in what you guys think he would try to push through and how the people themselves would react to it.

Would probably be similar to Reagan. I don't know.

He could probably do quite a bit of damage with executive actions, right? Though, by the time he's done a few of the controversial things he's suggested, I'm sure Congress and the Senate will be so done with his **** that it'll be impeachment right there.

Curse me for not paying attention more in my Government class more but can't Congress override an Executive Order?
