    Default Has anyone read the list of things Trump wants to do?

    If he can do half of this America will really be great again.

    Did anyone notice they are preposing congressional term limits?

    How about getting rid of Gun Free zones. Oh we will be "WINNING so BIG!

    "IMMIGRATION:

    -Stop all federal funding to "sanctuary cities" - places where local officials don't arrest or detain immigrants living in the country illegally for federal authorities.

    -Begin deporting what Trump estimates to be more than 2 million criminal illegal immigrants living in the country.

    -Cancel visas for citizens of foreign countries that won't take those criminal illegal immigrants back.

    -Immediately terminate former President Barack Obama's "two illegal executive amnesties." That presumably includes DACA, which protects people who were brought into the country illegally as children.

    -Begin working on an "impenetrable physical wall" along the southern border.

    -Ask Congress to pass "Kate's Law," which would increase penalties on people who unlawfully re-enter the United States after being removed.

    SECURITY AND DEFENSE:

    -Immediately suspend the Syrian refugee program.

    -Convene his generals and inform them that they have 30 days to submit a new plan for defeating the Islamic State group.

    -Suspend immigration from "terror-prone regions" where he says vetting is too difficult.

    -Implement new "extreme" immigration vetting techniques.

    TRADE:

    -Announce his intention to renegotiate or withdraw from the North American Free Trade Agreement with Canada and Mexico.

    -Formally withdraw from the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership.

    -Direct his treasury secretary to label China a currency manipulator.

    DRAINING THE SWAMP and GOVERNMENT REFORM:

    -Propose a Constitutional amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress.

    -Ban White House and congressional officials from becoming lobbyists for five years after they leave the government.

    -Ban former White House officials from lobbying on behalf of foreign governments for the rest of their lives.

    -Ban foreign lobbyists from raising money for U.S. elections.

    -Impose a hiring freeze on federal employees, excluding military, public safety, and public health staff.

    -Impose a requirement that for every new federal regulation imposed, two existing regulations be eliminated.

    ENERGY AND THE ENVIRONMENT:

    -Remove any Obama-era roadblocks to energy projects such as the Keystone XL pipeline.

    -Lift restrictions on mining coal and drilling for oil and natural gas.

    -Cancel payments to the U.N.'s climate change programs and use the money to fix America's water and environmental infrastructure.

    HEALTH CARE, GUN CONTROL AND OTHER ISSUES:

    -Cancel "every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum and order issued by President Obama."

    -Ask Congress to send him a bill to repeal and replace Obama's signature health care law.

    -Begin the process of selecting a new Supreme Court justice.

    -Get rid of gun-free zones in schools and on military bases.

    I disagree with some of his immigration reform..

    We're fighting hostile terrorists half way around the globe, but turn a blind eye to the Drug Cartel is Mexico?

    Make Mexico sign something in exchange for something, and smush these MFs..

    It would be great if a lot of these things could be accomplished but I do not see it happening. Will some get done, yes. But, IMO the vast majority will not. The irony of all of this to me is that those of you posting all this stuff about everything that Trump is going to do are the same people who called Obama supporters idiots for doing the same thing... Y'all are like a bunch of giddy school girls drooling over Trump and his plans. But I know, this time it is different!! Hope and change! Hope and change!

    Trump is just one of part of the equation, without a majority republican congress *that is on the same page as Trump* not much of what he said above will be accomplished, IMO. I hope I am wrong, but just don't see it happening.

    Problem is the Cartels run Mexico. They have the two things that wield power (1) Fear (2) Money.

    Play by their rules; you will live and you will be rewarded

    Buck the system and you will die, and your family will die, and everyone you know will die.

    Its primative, but it works. Until there is a sizable majority to stand up to the Cartels either with or without US help, not much will change.

    And they need not forget that they are the reason Trump got elected. People are sick of their sorry asses. Im glad his has the balls to call em out & therefore cause them to lose their seat next election.

    Think he has already signed the order for removal from Trans pacific, the hiring freeze and one other thing. It was just on Fox radio news.

    Big difference between some bullshit list on the internet and actually getting something done.

    I agree 100% but it would take an invasion of Mexico to accomplish.


    We think we have a Mexican immigration problem now, just wait until we set fire to their country ridding it of druglords. There would be 10's of millions of "refugees" and we would have some obligation to accept them.

    Just hard for me to build a wall to keep people in that situation..

    And the paper work to fill out/file is a terrible process, if you can even get somewhere to fill it out.

    If your morals dictate that you accept a bunch of foreigners that's great. Just don't spend one cent of someone's money who disagrees with you to do it.

    I'm not necessarily accepting them, just stating the obvious that if I was in their position, I would do the exact same thing they are doing..

    I'm not blaming them..

    An executive order does not 'cross it off the list' or if it does, it is with a pencil and can easily be erased. Another irony:

    Obama signs executive orders: 'Its illegal! Its un-constitutional! President shouldn't have that power!'

    Trump signs them: 'That's right, he's getting the job done!'

    I hope Trump calls the people R or D that hold up the process. Let the Americans know who specifically is the hold up.
