I'm skeptical because I don't think he gives a rip snort about those blue collar guys who voted for him.
I think that's a good thing. But I think you point to the political challenge, which is he was elected by the middle class, and Democrats are going to want to say he's going to serve the billionaire class, right.
He didn't get elected because folks want to buy Greenland. He got elected because folks want to buy groceries. And he, by God, better cut the cost of groceries, gas and rent.
He has a mandate to cut the cost of groceries, gas and rent. He promised to cut the cost of energy in half.
