Yes, trump is good at bulling, but he is not a man with ideas, he is not one who understands how government works, he is the "look behind you, a squirrel!" who will run out his usefulness soon if Democrats let this go too far, but when he does run out of his usefulness he will be thrown to the side like an old piece of cloth, but it may be too late for the USA, and the World.
