I have admired her independence from a cautionary distance. Unlike McCain, I consider her a true maverick. Maybe good, maybe not. But I think we'll see.

You don't want mavericks in elected office. Think about it -- you vote for someone who will do what YOU would do in critical situations. Mavericks, by definition, and unpredictable and liable to do anything.

Sarcasm?

Just more proof of your total stupidity. Exactly what is Trump is doing that is not directly a promise made during the campaign... tax cut, pull out of Syria, rebuild the military, redo NAFTA, clamp down on Chinese stealing our jobs, build the wall, etc? The wall isn't built because of the psycho haters like you that would rather see law abiding Americans raped and murdered rather than for the US to have borders and immigration laws. And yes those haters include a bunch of Republican jackasses like Corker, Flake, Romney, McCain, Sanford, Collins etc., etc.

It's about time that POS political party had some DINO's in it. Maybe this is a start.

Tell me Trump doesn't see value in unpredictability. You make a big show of calling others stupid but can't even comprehend a simple sentence. Just more ranting from Red, blah blah blah.

Trump is not a Maverick, he is just not as predictable as a typical politician,

and since he does not do what they do, hated by all,

Disagree. Trump fits the definition of Maverick to a tee: recognizable as a member of the breed, but apt to break loose on their own and be hard to corral. Personality aside, his trade and foreign policies are perfect examples.

is he a member of the breed?

his politics are boardroom related, not policy\lawyer\congress critter type,


McCain was supposedly the Maverick, but he was basically a store bought D wrapped in a R blanket

Very good and sound observation.

Trump's views on taxes, deregulation and judicial nominees are are bone-stock Republicanism. So yes, member of the breed, and yes, on matters where he goes his own way, very hard to corral. Seems like an open-and-shut case to me, and not really even a big deal. It's just a word, and he's been called far worse.
