Trump Being Trump

PRESIDENT TRUMP'S first big presidential speech didn't include any attacks on anyone, so I'm told, no name calling, no amazingly blatant lies, except maybe for the one about ninety four million Americas being "out of work" - in other words, the president's speech was entirely out of character, which was absolutely necessary, and it proved that Trump can indeed do a passable impersonation of an intelligent, sane, moral gentleman. At least, for on hour or so. Now, presumably, we can look forward to getting back to business as usual, with the grammatically butchered, truncated Trump tweets, the name calling, the war with the media and anyone else who disagrees with him or tells the truth about him, in essence, we can now look forward to the same old, temperamentally unqualified for his job Donald Trump. It would be nice if the president could make some fundamental changes to his character, but, at his age, people don't usually do that. The best we might hope for is that his handlers can convince him to be as much out of character, as much of the time, as he can possibly manage.
