He's absolutely entrenched in the american elite and has has been for a long time now....... Today they actually stopped the former Prime Minister of Norway and questioned him for almost an hour about a visit he made to Iran... three years ago.
You kinda hope those advising him might guide him but the likes of Kellyanne Conway is just a very special kind of idiot.
He constantly portrays himself as an ordinary man done good!! He epitomizes those that talk about the American dream as if anyone can achieve the wealth he has through sheer hard work! His supporters see him as one of them in this sense, albeit with more money!! Yes, he is now part of the American elite.
That story about the the Norwegian PM ran here earlier this week but it was used to highlight how ill thought out this executive order was in the first place!! I know a couple of green card holders who were questioned a lot longer than they normally are. I have no problem with extra vetting of immigrants in this day and age, I also have no problem with suspending visas so that new rues and checks are brought in, but just to sign a piece of paper with nothing behind it to explain how all this will work is madness. When Homeland Security admitted they didn't know what this actually meant, you knew this was simply rushed and not thought through.
Kellyanne Conway of the alternative facts fame!!!! All during the campaign she would argue the blindingly obvious no matter how stupid it seemed. She is typical of what he has surrounded himself with. CNN this week refused a request from her to appear on the Sunday morning shows and I would assume this is due to everything she spouts being basically untrue!!
