It’s remarkable, really. There is no platform. There is no policy (other than to install right-wing judges). I suppose “repeal and replace the ACA” has been a policy goal of this administration, but nobody ever took it seriously. Sean Hannity asked Trump twice, in two, separate interviews, “What are your policy goals for the next four years?,” and Trump had NOTHING. He mumbled, talked about experience, and then launched into his standard list of personal grievances.

This administration has no policy beyond holding on to power at all costs.

It is now the Trumplican Party. Trump has no plan. He is incapable of planning anything but his own enrichment.
