Donald Trump will be President of the United States. I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so. This is a historic election that will be talked about for years to come. First, this election represents a repudiation of the mainstream media and the ruling elites on both the Right and Left. Second, Democrats should now finally realize that allowing Barack Obama to consolidate power in the presidency and the executive branch was dangerous. I hope that Democrats can rejoin libertarians in calling for limits on executive power. Third, the hypocrisy of the Left is clearer now than ever. I do not believe race played a central role in Trump’s victory; he simply appealed more to the voters in Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin and their economic interests (or at least what they believe is in their best economic interests).
To discuss what I think a Trump presidency will look like, I expect it to be more of the same. He has surrounded himself with a lot of establishment neo-conservative types, so I expect Trump to be more a figurehead while the cabinet members run the show behind the scene. I think the government will expand under Trump, though the chances of major war are at least slightly slower than they would have been under Hillary Clinton. Finally, I discuss Trump’s infrastructure spending proposal in his victory speech.
