It might be a problem. It's too early to tell. His bark may not be nearly as bad as his bite.
What we have to ask is: will all of the other politicians just go along with him or will they really try to fight the "good fight"?
We need to hope that people don't really think that coal and gas are the only "good" energy options going forward.
We need to hope that immigrants aren't looked down upon as people that are a drain to society - because they're not, they contribute as much if not more in most cases. And frankly grouping people like that just doesn't solve problems ("deport all muslims", etc)
We need to hope that politicians aren't idiotic enough to build a symbolic wall that will actually do nothing practically and cost way too much taxpayer money.
Ugh I don't know like everyone else I'm just super confused right now and have no idea how this could've happened.
I'd like to think the HN crowd sympathizes as people that seem fairly progressive. I'd like to think there's a good amount of people in the US that want futuristic technology things like colonizing Mars, self-driving cars, voice assistants, new interfaces to tech to happen. But maybe I've just been too optimistic all along.
