Absolutely not, strongly against that. FDR did do that for a time, though he did not try to drastically centralize executive power, Trump will do that, and his goals won’t be to create welfare, but to destroy it and separation of powers.

Ever heard of his court packing scheme to allow the President to pack the Supreme Court for his own personal interests, or the thousands of unconstitutional executive orders he signed, bypassing Congress, or the 2,000 Americans he knowingly allowed to be slaughtered at Pearl Harbour despite (and this has been proved under the Freedom of Information Act) knowing a Japanese attack was coming to Pearl Harbour?

It’s called a safety net for a reason, and that safety net saves lives.
