Trump should absolutely bust Beltway 'norms' -- but not...

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : Look: Americans voted for change when they elected Trump, but most of them also voted for a return to normalcy.
41% : They certainly expect Trump to set Beltway insiders a'clucking, but in pursuit of common-sense goals -- not to serve his whims.
36% : But two wrongs don't make a right: The correct lesson (which Trump's plainly learned) is to get your own people in place from the start, not to try to use these agencies against your own domestic political foes.
35% : And it'd build huge ill-will among senators whom Trump will need to pass much of his agenda, and more broadly among moderate and traditional conservative Americans.
32% : No doubt: Democrats and the left did weaponize the intelligence community and the Department of Justice against Trump.
22% : Trump blew through plenty of the fake ones in his first term, ignoring received wisdom to pull out of the Paris climate accords, move the US embassy to Jerusalem while tossing pursuit of the "two state solution" as central to Middle East peace, tell our NATO allies they needed to up their defense spending or else they were threatening the alliance and so on.
