Everyone says he is "spur of the moment" and doesn't think about the future or plan for consequences, etc.
BUT, this week he proved all those people wrong when he signed the prison reform bill. He is CLEARLY preparing for his future.

He's just preparing to visit his family, friends and former work colleagues.
He's just that kind of guy, wants things 'nice' for others.

Trump and Pence were touring the USA, and giving donations to various worthy causes.
First they visited an elementary school. Trump decided that they should give the school ten dollars.
Then they visited a children's summer camp. Trump decided that they should give the camp twenty dollars.
Then they visited a prison. Trump decided that they should give the prison a thousand dollars.
After leaving, Pence asked Trump, 'Why did we give the prison so much more than the school or the camp?'
Trump replied, 'Well, when we leave office, we won't be going to an elementary school or a summer camp.'
