What should President Trump do with first 2 years?

[Sheik Yerbouti]

don't fucking blame me, I wouldn't have voted for drumpf under any circumstances. the guy is a clusterfuck waiting to happen.

 

[UglyCasanova]

Holy shit at this list. How come NPR didn't release this until AFTER the election?

This man is insane? This has extreme economic depression and probably world war 3 written all over it. China annexes the US inside of 12 years.

What part is insane?

What part is insane?

You're missing the best part of the pledge.

Next, I will work with Congress to introduce the following broader legislative measures and fight for their passage within the first 100 days of my Administration:

1. Middle Class Tax Relief And Simplification Act. An economic plan designed to grow the economy 4% per year and create at least 25 million new jobs through massive tax reduction and simplification, in combination with trade reform, regulatory relief, and lifting the restrictions on American energy. The largest tax reductions are for the middle class. A middle-class family with 2 children will get a 35% tax cut. The current number of brackets will be reduced from 7 to 3, and tax forms will likewise be greatly simplified. The business rate will be lowered from 35 to 15 percent, and the trillions of dollars of American corporate money overseas can now be brought back at a 10 percent rate.
2. End The Offshoring Act. Establishes tariffs to discourage companies from laying off their workers in order to relocate in other countries and ship their products back to the U.S. tax-free.
3. American Energy & Infrastructure Act. Leverages public-private partnerships, and private investments through tax incentives, to spur $1 trillion in infrastructure investment over 10 years. It is revenue neutral.
4. School Choice And Education Opportunity Act. Redirects education dollars to give parents the right to send their kid to the public, private, charter, magnet, religious or home school of their choice. Ends common core, brings education supervision to local communities. It expands vocational and technical education, and make 2 and 4-year college more affordable.
5. Repeal and Replace Obamacare Act. Fully repeals Obamacare and replaces it with Health Savings Accounts, the ability to purchase health insurance across state lines, and lets states manage Medicaid funds. Reforms will also include cutting the red tape at the FDA: there are over 4,000 drugs awaiting approval, and we especially want to speed the approval of life-saving medications.
6. Affordable Childcare and Eldercare Act. Allows Americans to deduct childcare and elder care from their taxes, incentivizes employers to provide on-side childcare services, and creates tax-free Dependent Care Savings Accounts for both young and elderly dependents, with matching contributions for low-income families.
7. End Illegal Immigration Act Fully-funds the construction of a wall on our southern border with the full understanding that the country Mexico will be reimbursing the United States for the full cost of such wall; establishes a 2-year mandatory minimum federal prison sentence for illegally re-entering the U.S. after a previous deportation, and a 5-year mandatory minimum for illegally re-entering for those with felony convictions, multiple misdemeanor convictions or two or more prior deportations; also reforms visa rules to enhance penalties for overstaying and to ensure open jobs are offered to American workers first.
8. Restoring Community Safety Act. Reduces surging crime, drugs and violence by creating a Task Force On Violent Crime and increasing funding for programs that train and assist local police; increases resources for federal law enforcement agencies and federal prosecutors to dismantle criminal gangs and put violent offenders behind bars.
9. Restoring National Security Act. Rebuilds our military by eliminating the defense sequester and expanding military investment; provides Veterans with the ability to receive public VA treatment or attend the private doctor of their choice; protects our vital infrastructure from cyber-attack; establishes new screening procedures for immigration to ensure those who are admitted to our country support our people and our values
10. Clean up Corruption in Washington Act. Enacts new ethics reforms to Drain the Swamp and reduce the corrupting influence of special interests on our politics.

Yeah i'll agree with you there. What else you got?

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

he denies science, and you want more... jesus fucking christ....

 

[Sonikku]

wtf is wrong with pensions and infrastructure. That's what we need more of. we already spend over double of the world's total on military, far more than our next competitor China.

You are a fucking idiot that we need to shift more spending to the military. It's dumbfucks like you that make me sick about America.

Those are not things I propose. They are the things I expect the GoP to do in the name of balancing the budget.

 

[Pens1566]

Obviously put Sarah Palin in the Cabinet

And things like this are why you should have zero faith in him ever making a sane decision.

edit:
Just read the 100 days list. Haha. This is going to be a bumpy ride.

Trump won because Hillary was THAT TERRIBLE for a lot of people. There's no real mandate, just Trump isn't Queen Hillary of the Clinton Dynasty.

Since I suspect he's really not interested in being president, I hope he'll at least appoint people that have some sense and let them figure out what needs to be done. Then he can get up in front of the cameras and act like they were his ideas.

He says he wants to rebuild infrastructure and put Americans to work doing it- fine, get some qualified people to figure that out and let's get to it.

The whole wall thing has been turned into a cartoon, but the fact is, there IS a border war that most Americans know NOTHING about. It's more to do with drugs than illegals, but there is an illegal component to it as well. Huge numbers of people are killed in Mexico every year due to the drug war, and it's spilling over into TX and AZ.

Along some completely open sections of border used by the drug cartels, there actually DOES need to be walls built- no, it won't stop the drug/illegal flow entirely, but there are ways walls can slow things down and all us to narrow the range of what needs to be patrolled. As it is now, entire convoys of drugs/people can be moved into the US with nothing stopping them- some strategic walls/sensors. etc could help break that up some.

Trump would be smart to go down to the border, have the hack media tag along, hook up with some locals down there who really know what's going on- spend like a MONTH doing this- and show people what the hell is ACTUALLY going on. Just FORCE the hack media to actually take their cameras because they have to follow Trump, and force them to get images of the real border situation, and put people in front of them with stories of the real extent of the issues. It'd wake up a lot of Americans. Then build some wall sections that actually ARE needed. (We already have walls along the Mexico border, it's actually nothing new- but people are stupid, and Trump himself made it a stupid issue.)

Beyond that, start a policy of we ARE going to enforce our existing immigration laws. Send a shot across the bow of US businesses- the cheating days are over. If your business is hiring a lot of illegal labor, there WILL be hefty fines. Prison terms. Examples made. We're coming after you. No more excuses, no more bullshit. A nation CAN survive and thrive without exploiting illegal labor- and boo hoo to anyone who claims they can't pay US citizens fair wages. Then CLOSE UP SHOP and move over for some other business who can.

Now of course, I don't expect Trump to do any of this on his own- none of this shit really interests him. I would hope some person ACTUALLY running the show would do all this- Trump can just stand up in front of cameras and pontificate about it after the heavy lifting has been done.

Other than that- just keep the far left from turning half the US into the third world so they can whine about how terrible America is, and just for the most part, keep government out of people's way. Step in where government is needed- fix things when its an actual government function- then get the fuck out of everyone's way. 4-8 years of that will be a shot in the arm for this country. But since Trump ISN'T actually a conservative as he's been made out to be, I'm not holding my breath for any of this really happening.

I thought it he didn't believe that the cause of climate change is man made.

he said it was a hoax, perpetuated by the Chinese, he is a fucking buffoon, congrats

 

[brycejones]

That may not be clear enough for some in this thread.

 

[fskimospy]

Yeah i'll agree with you there. What else you got?

His claim that a trillion dollar infrastructure project will be revenue neutral.

His claim that his tax cut's largest cut is for the middle class and that it will spur 4% growth.

Both of those claims are insane. Alternatively you could argue that they are just lies I guess.

I wonder how long it will take the working class people who voted for him because he would stick it to the 'elites' to realize that he just gave the elites more money than any president has in history. My guess is they will never realize it.

It's also going to be interesting to see how they react to the president elect being found liable for thousands of counts of fraud on American citizens just like them. My guess is they will ignore it.

It was mismanagement by those under him. Father Donald would have stopped it of course if he was aware.
