There is a big difference......

between a cynical, political operator trading on people's gullibility, and a naive, idealist. The former will recognize reality and adjust accordingly for the long term and the latter will simply pretend all is as he/she wants it to be. The former is far less dangerous than the latter. A cynical operator will see danger coming and deal with it, if for no other reason than self-preservation. The idealist never sees it coming and then wonders how it all happened. In today's world, the idealist will get more than him/herself killed.

Which one do you think we have for a President?

......and it makes a difference.

Idealist? I want what you're taking LOL. But I think we have a narcissist in chief rather than a cynical political professional.
 
Yes, Teresa, I agree he is a narcissist. Narcissists can also be idealists, and are the more dangerous because they never admit they are wrong. Remember, just because they are your ideals, doesn't mean they aren't ideals.

Though I dislike her almost as much as the current President, Hillary Clinton would have been far better--she is the cynical opportunist.
