Trump is still a JFK Democrat. He just had to take over the Republican Party because at the time they were the lesser of two evils, and the easiest to infiltrate.
Donald Trump registered as a Republican in Manhattan in 1987; since that time, he has changed his party affiliation five times. In 1999, Trump changed his party affiliation to the Independence Party of New York. In August 2001, Trump changed his party affiliation to Democratic. In September 2009, Trump changed his party affiliation back to the Republican Party. In December 2011, Trump changed to "no party affiliation" (independent). In April 2012, Trump again returned to the Republican Party.[4]
In a 2004 interview, Trump told CNN's Wolf Blitzer: "In many cases, I probably identify more as Democrat", explaining: "It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans. Now, it shouldn't be that way. But if you go back, I mean it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats...But certainly we had some very good economies under Democrats, as well as Republicans. But we've had some pretty bad disaster under the Republicans."[5] In a July 2015 interview, Trump said that he has a broad range of political positions and that "I identify with some things as a Democrat."[4]
Remember when TRUMP was a Democrat?

Trump has spend most of his life as a real estate developer.
He had to deal with bureaucrats every time he had a new project to get done.
You see this with Elon Musk now.
He must say certain things or his business is fucked.
That is a bad thing because he must do whatever the CCP tells him.
But I think DJT no longer cares. He is old and he knows he doesn't have a lot of time left.
