    Trump's victory speech was interesting. It was basically the opposite of his entire campaign. It drew tepid applause and a "Kill Obama" from the crowd.

      So, President-elect Trump. I think the focus becomes holding him to his promises.

      A border wall, paid for by Mexico. I'm a fair guy, I'm not expecting completion within his first term, just reasonable progress . There will be planning sessions, quotes, and negotiations. I think a public release of the project plan for this by the end of 2017 is perfectly reasonable.

      Deportation of all "criminal illegals" and end sanctuary cities. Triple the number of ICE agents. Biometric entry/exit system. Again, I'm fair. Let's see the plan.

      "Temporary" Muslim ban. Is this even Constitutional? If he and the orcs try this, I think it will be in front of the high courts in very short order. I hope he goes for it.

      Let's hear it - what other Trump initiatives are we hoping to expose in the first 100-365 days?

        He's already breaking his campaign promises!

          It seemed gracious and conciliatory to me, and I thought he projected genuine humility: "This is a huge job and it will take a lot of us working together to do it right."


          Most people on the left just did not get a chance to receive a decent, balanced picture of Trump. The person many of us knew never appeared in the mainstream media, they only portrayed a caricature. If all you ever saw was the caricature, you didn't really get a chance to appreciate how subtle and clever he was during the campaign.


          That's because, when Trump says something, he is always negotiating. The biggest mistake the Democrats / mainstream media made was to assume that the first thing he said on a subject was his "position." Yet on every major subject, his "position" evolved, from extreme to moderate.

          One example:
          -- No Muslims at all!
          -- well, maybe some Muslims, but none from dangerous countries
          -- well, maybe some from dangerous countries too, but only after we check them out first.

          How far is that final position from the mainstream? well, duh, of course we want to keep dangerous people out.


          The subtlety in that approach is that, the first statement attracted some supporters, and then each evolution reassured more people that the guy wasn't quite so crazy after all, because he demonstrated that he listened to reason and adjusted what he said as a result, which could then attract even more supporters without causing the initial group to abandon him for going soft.

          He ran the first 21st century campaign, using social media and the internet to run a very effective campaign without using very much money. By casting the mainstream media as part of the opposition, he insulated himself from anything they had to say about him, and also drove people to alternate sources of information (e.g. youtube).

          There supposedly are seven different kinds of intelligence, not just one.

            We'll see. My guess is that corporate tax reform will be one of the first priorities; that will be a big part of bringing jobs back to the USA.

            Another high priority will be to repeal and replace PPACA. That also will help job growth quite a bit.


            Immigration reform will not be that high a priority. Border security may be a fairly high priority as part of national defense, we'll see.

              Why? The only thing that brings back jobs is people needing more stuff. If demand of products don't stay high or goes down, there's no need for more workers.

              Taxes just effect the profits of companies.

                You're right but no one on the right is listening. So, just forget it. It's over.

                  In two years, when unemployment is up, as are corporate profits, it will be interesting how that is spun.

                    Republicans have a favorable map and Dems never come out in off years.

                      I wouldn't rule out a 2006 style election. Likely, no. Possible, definitely.

                      A silver lining on this very dark cloud is that I imagine the Democrats will have a good year in 2020, and its a census year.

                          I warned everyone that this (Trump) could happen. I'm telling you now, the Dems will not win in 2020.

                            The Republican platform has literally no connection to anything that will materially benefit most of these working class white voters.

                            It has a lot of stuff that will materially harm minorities and repel educated white voters.

                            I think 2008 was probably a mixture of a rejection of Bush and an embrace of Obama. The 2020 Democratic candidate may not get the latter portion of the equation, but I feel comfortable asserting these rural white voters are going to be nearly as turned on in 2020 when they realize the 1950s didn't magically come back.

                              Won't happen. None one in rural America is voting for a Dem. No one. It's all about social issues. Always has been. Obama was an anomaly.

                                unemployment is as silly a statistic as inflation.
