I canno wait to the the reaction from the most dog whistle influenced group of his supporters..when they realize they have been scammed. Trumped, so to speak. Could be entertaining.

The more rational of his supporters..when they realize they were scammed on jobs and manufacturing won't be as vocal...but they will remember.

I would imagine the walk-backs won't get much, if any, coverage on Fox / Breitbart

Actually they might. .more dog whistle journalism. Cannot see them abandoning their racist base of viewers.

It won't matter they'll just go with whatever Daddy Trump says and then Oceania was at war with Eurasia; therefore Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia.

We won't have to worry about any of that anyway since Trump's 100 day plan is going to **** the environment like it's a cheap hooker in the alley behind a strip joint.

Maybe he'll launch the nukes so we won't have wait for a slow and painful death.

So much for Trumps criticism of Wall Street ties. Looking right at Wall Street big wigs for Treasury.

Given a choice between the future of the environment post-Trump and being the hooker, I'd be the hooker every time.

Except that the US electoral process means that the state popular votes aren't certified by the House of Representatives until December 19. An article on KTLA explains it (there are a few other sites documenting this as well)

Last-Ditch Effort Underway to Elect Hillary Clinton, Block Donald Trump Presidency | KTLA

If his administration essentially walks back their campaign platform prior to December 19, it could possibly cause some Electors from states that voted for Trump to either abstain, or vote for Clinton (as the platform that their state voted on is no longer valid). This would be especially true of states where the voting margin was slim. It's unlikely that a simple walk back of some campaign promises would cause the state electors to abstain/defect, since not following through on campaign promises is hardly news, however it does sow seeds of doubt.

Should additional negative information come to light about Trump before December 19 (such as the story on Politico that the Russian government was in fact in contact with multiple members of Trump's campaign team), or the potential that he could be convicted of fraud with regards to Trump University, or another 'Access Hollywood' style tape is leaked, it could cause some states to reconsider.

Expect lots of negative fireworks targeting Trump over the next month
