Donald Trump might be leading in the polls, but even his biggest supporters don't seem to know what would happen if he were voted into the Oval Office. When CNN asked Robert Kiger, head of the Trump Super PAC Citizens for Restoring USA, just what a Trump administration would accomplish, his answer was incredibly vague: "I think he's going to accomplish everything that he set out to do," Kiger replied, without much elaboration. In fact, aside from asserting that Trump is the most galvanizing political figure since Ronald Reagan and stressing that he will secure the U.S.-Mexico border, Kiger seemed clear about little else in the GOP hopeful's agenda.
Kiger isn't the first Trump supporter to be stumped by the question of what exactly The Donald would do in office. Just two days before Wednesday's CNN interview aired, Trump campaign head Michael Cohen was unable to provide any supporting evidence to the claim that Trump was a better candidate for veterans issues. "So what is Donald Trump going to do?," CNN's Chris Cuomo asked Cohen. Cohen's response: "Donald Trump fixes things. You gotta acknowledge that."
