If you think Trump is going to a new brush. Explain how he gets anything done with all the Senators and Congressmen scared about getting enough money to stand for election next time.

Funding is like a gun, big business can choose to shoot, or choose not to. Either way, the politicians jump when told.

The UK recently had a huge opportunity to put the fear of god into the politicians by voting UKIP. Not enough did.

So if you want change, vote for it. Not going for anyone with 7 figure budgets in their election pots, even if it's their own money, they won't throw it away to make others richer.
It's the closest thing to something different than the same person who has been president for the last couple of decades.

Yes, the same person - different names and appearances, but exactly the same person.
