While it is true that he is appointing 'neocons', I don't feel this is the same as the 45th administration. He's no dummy and has survived a steep learning curve, under less than ideal circumstances, to arrive at this point in history. From what I've observed, Trump places great value on loyalty (or even fealty). Regardless of appointees labels, I feel that there is a better chance of them doing his bidding this time around. Call me an optimist.
Because I haven't seen any evidence, just wishful thinking.
Trump has been appointing cabinet members known to oppose the swamp with alacrity. He's not President yet. What would you expect to see?
Far as I can tell, he's mostly appointed neocons.
We'll see.
Looks more like a shapeshift from Ukraine to Iran on the way to China.
Name one, pray tell.

Personnel is policy, as they say. *IF* Trump continues to behave like a neocon, will you make excuses for him?
"It's a headfake!" "He just needs a little more time!" "This is some kind of 5D chess move!"
