During the campaign I insisted that Trump had no actual beliefs, and that all his campaign promises were merely empty rhetoric—telling us precisely nothing about what he’d do as President. And of course I was completely right. No repeal of Obamacare, indeed he never even came up with a proposal to do so. No slashing of income taxes down to a top rate of 25%, indeed his administration never even put together a tax plan. No infrastructure. No wall on the Mexican border.
