Yup, I'm a big fan of what @steempress are heading toward. Also similar ideas in place at @threespeak to allow non-Steemians to comment on Steem content.

As to Trump, he's a genius at manipulation and human interactions. He's also solidly in touch with the real world, building things and getting stuff done. He's got a skill stack that nobody's ever brought to the White House before. I'm inclined to believe a lot of his idiot persona is merely that, a persona.
