Well, there's trust and there's trust.
I just mean I trust the man's judgment and powers of deliberation and therefore extend him the benefit of the doubt.
I also trust him to own up to mistakes and make course corrections, so for example if this Clinton thing didn't work out, I don't see him pretending otherwise and avoiding taking action simply to save face.
So yes, I do trust him as far as governing goes. He has earned that trust (with me) and could well lose it again, time will tell.
For now, though, I honestly don't have any serious doubts about his competence in assembling the team he feels will best serve his agenda.
