His absolutely heinous judicial appointments (see John Bush) prevent him from really being a Democrat. In my opinion, he has no ideology but rather just wants to be liked.
So us liberals need to feed him lots of praise whenever he does something good. Don't gloat!
If he switches parties and runs again as a democrat he would suddenly be a leftist hero. Progressives have no soul and no integrity.
Unlike in the Republican party, he wouldn't survive the first primary on the Democratic side. But it is funny that you equate voting for Trump with the epitome of having no soul and no integrity. I couldn't agree more.

That's because the DNC has super delegates who pick who wins. The voters are just a sideshow.
This was proved in 2008 when Hillary won the popular vote but didn't get the nomination. Blacks got upset with Bill Clinton and pressured the Congressional Black Caucus to switch their pledged Hillary votes to Obama.
This was proved again in 2016 when it was completely rigged to give Hillary the nomination no matter how it went. And with that, they even had to cheat. In the end, it was the Super Delegates who decided it.
So I agree. Trump would not have survived this process. The "establishment" from both parties does not want him because he won't play their game. I'm surprised that are some, such as yourself apparently, who continue to support this corrupt broken system.
He's doing what he has to do to placate the right. Most of his voters don't give a damn about lifting regulations on businesses. 9 outta 10 Trump voters can't even name a business regulation that they don't like. Nullifying regulations placates wealthy business owners, not worker bees like you.
Trump isn't a Democrat, but he's definitely not a conservative Republican.
Trump has a clear life long history of racism, so we know he is racist.
Trump has no history of supporting policy for either party. Sure he was not a politician but many non politicians have long histories of supporting various policies. Trump has NO background at all, not even working to help a particular subset of americans.
What this means (in my view)is that it is very unlikely Trump is anything more than a power hungry populist with a racist bent. Not a full bore nazi, more of a by default as his dad raised bit of a racist. I don't think he cares much beyond having some prejudice against non whites.
this is why his talk is all over the place, he simply does not have any core beliefs or real interest in politics , policy .
Honestly i think Trump will do or say whatever keeps him in power. If that means making out with Mitch or nancy he will. If it means he has to become dem , he will become a dem.
I see Trump as an independent who's only interest is Trump. If he can get a win working with Democrats, he'll go in that direction. It's temporary. Trump will flip flop on a whim if it suits his immediate need for gratification.
