TRUMP: MCCAIN ON STEROIDS? “Incoherency: Trump, like McCain, represents a grab bag of ideas that have little in common besides simply being his personal preferences,” Henry Gomez writes at PJM.

Even more so than McCain redux, Trump is giving me serious flashbacks to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s cruise to victory in the California recall election of 2003. Both are the very definition of media savvy — Arnold in film and Trump in television; both pass the media’s stereotypical “fun guys you would like to hang out with and have a beer” test with ease – and both are ultimately pretty squishy RINOs who will say anything to get elected and placate their base.

When Arnold was running for the governorship, his leftwing True Lies costar Jamie Lee Curtis told Good Morning America that “even though he pretends to be a Republican, I think he’s a social Democrat at heart.” Which turned out to be absolutely spot-on in retrospect, leaving the Republican party, and arguably the state of California for dead by the time he left office at the start of 2011.

How would we describe President Trump after a couple of years in office?
