President Trump: anyone think of any positives? We'll all stop worrying about the trivial problems.

I will look more fondly than ever on Canadians. And Mexicans.
And it will be a pleasure to see more Americans visiting Europe, with open return tickets.

Or better still, he'll be too busy with the apprentice to have time to do The President.

Any positives ? Unlikely to run for a second term in 2020 (applies to President Clinton also, though marignally less so as Bill will be an unofficial co-regent sharing some of the stresses) so we might see a younger more dynamic president sooner.
"Donald Trump turned 70 last month, and would be the oldest president ever elected if he were to win in November. Hillary Clinton will turn 69 just before the election, and if she wins, would be the second oldest president to take office, after Reagan." (from Washington Post)

It will make 'cabinet' meetings more interesting because at the end someone will get fired Where's the neither option on the poll? Thats's the saddest thing IMO that in a country the size of the US these are the best two they could come up with

Within a month of being elected, he'll throw a strop and decide to hit the big red button, and we will never have to worry about anything ever again.

Try to focus on the positives. My George Bush Jr horror mask now seems less war-mongery and loathsome.
I liked the comment from Paul Ryan, that "it's no surprise that Donald Trump has never read The Bible. He's not in it". So at least President Trump will not be trying to bring about the end of the world he has read about in Revelation, usually the worry one has about these right wing nut jobs. Hopefully he will be too busy killing the families of terrorists,
