    I think this is Jared not Trump because it seems to be that Jared is the one doing the work

    When did Trump ever say Putin was our friend and what does Japan not having nukes have to do with North Korea? When did Trump state he does not plan on having mass deportations?

    Healthcare is not one of the issues that Trump was really interested in. He didn't even want to "own" it. It was always "Ryan's plan" To Trump it was just a campaign attack line against Obama. Let's see them oppose the Wall, or his tax welfare to corporations and the rich, or his "Muslim Ban"....you know... all the things he really cares about. And then let's see if those who oppose him don't pay in the midterms...

    Read again. These are positions that the Democrats held and Trump opposed during the campaign, but embrace now.

    I don't know if you were just not paying any attention during the campaign. Or, like other Trump voters, you only watched Fox and other alt-right news outlets. But all of this was litigated on the real news media.

    "At some point, we cannot be the policeman of the world. And unfortunately, we have a nuclear world now. And you have, Pakistan has them. You have, probably, North Korea has them. ... And, would I rather have North Korea have them with Japan sitting there having them also? You may very well be better off if that’s the case. In other words, where Japan is defending itself against North Korea, which is a real problem."
    [.and later in the same interview]
    "If Japan had that nuclear threat, I’m not sure that would be a bad thing for us."..

    "Official" accounts says he won't. But you never know what a crazy man is going to do.

    On the other hand, looks like they are talking about deporting only criminals. Which was exactly what Obama had been doing.

    You missed the point. On everything in which Trump has had an opportunity to learn the negative consequences today, he now takes the position the Democrats' held during the campaign. Because the consequences are immediate, and he now can see them first hand.

    Of course, he still will keep the dumb positions for which the consequences are not right before his eyes. Short-sighted people are unable to grasp consequences of things like messing up the environment. Because they can't "forsee" more than a few weeks into the future. And the real big consequences of things like Global Warming or lack of a Trade agreement with Asia (which, BTW, unlike most Democrats, I favor) won't be felt until Trump is out of the Presidency (which will be a few months, if things keep going as they are)
