Trump Prediction

There are quite a few people saying that the US is going to become a fascist, white-supremacist state now that Trump has won. While I do think his presence will embolden some bigots (in just the same way as the Brexit vote did here in the UK), I don’t think things will go quite that far.
The border wall he said was going to be built is unlikely to materialise. There’s already chatter from the Trump camp of it being a “virtual wall” rather than a physical one (something to stop or hinder cash-flow, not people) so the promise can be “fulfilled” and hopefully avoid cries of “bullsh*t!”
My main concern is what Trump is going to do in regards to Russia. If I had to put money on it, I’d say he’s going to take the route of appeasement. He’ll see it as the easiest option, and will pretend (or delude himself into thinking that) he has calmed the situation, but will have actually made it worse. It will mean that Russia gets away with a land-grab.
It’s a bit too 1938 for my liking. Britain looking the other way while part of Czechoslovakia was annexed did not lead to better things, and history has a nasty habit of repeating itself when people start ignoring the wider world around them….
