And why would anyone think this, based on his past performance?

Got to ask . . . when it is the job of government to 'hurt people', and how will this 'hurting' be aimed at one group of voters but not another?

Someone - lots of someones - drank the FlavorAid!

At least Dems are smart enough to know things will get nasty, Repugs will not.
Much gnashing of Repug teeth coming up when Trump winds up fully on the business of 'hurting' people.

But it is simplistic ZERO SUM thinking by Repugs - take away from one group (Dems) so that there is more for us (Repugs)

Is the world some live in that simple and deluded?

Will there be fuel pumps at the gas station marked 'For Repugs' and another for Dems, with different prices?
Ditto for shops?

The world is watching and shaking its head.
