text: Obese gov't has been spending our money w/out regard for a long time, ad naseum. 
  
  I would be lying if I didn't have at least a sliver of skepticism regarding what will happen vis a vis gov't spending under a Trump admin--he doesn't exactly strike me as a "small gov't" type.
  
  But I'll give him the benefit of the doubt until he acts otherwise. If he acts on the rhetoric he's promoted throughout his campaign, he'll get some spending room. If he backpedals on his promises, he will be roundly excoriated, have no doubt.
  
  The last thing Trump needs to do is promote "yes men", as you say. What he does need is individuals with the experience he lacks, BUT who still support the same ideological goals as he. That means keeping out the Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld types and vaporizing any chance of their neocon aspirations to take hold.
  
  I agree, it will not take long to see the impact of a Trump presidency. I am hopeful the promises will be delivered. And yes, we will be more divisive than ever. :-)
