when he discovers that all spending has to be enacted and approved by Congress. He can do deals with cabinet secretaries until he's blue in the face, but nothing will get done without the consent of Congress. I think Trump and his followers will be unpleasantly surprised if (God help us) he's elected, because the president is not all-powerful and can't do squat all by himself.
