      If he manages to implement absolutely none of his policy goals, it is plausible that the economy coasts along and does not fall off a cliff. But still that leaves everyone in the same spot. Hell be sitting there in 2028 having accomplished none of his stated policy goals after 8 years in office. His chances of getting off his ass and completing any of his talking points would not be improved.
