TRUMP Thread

To do any of these things he will need to work with and play nice with congress. Now some of you here have been saying that because the gop will have a majority in both houses, 48 dems, 51 gop, 1 independent in senate, 193 dems, 237 gop in the house, that the gop should be able to do whatever they want, but you forget that to break a filibuster a supermajority (defined below) is needed. This will be the political strategy of choice for the dems to delay and frustrate Trump and the gop at every turn, hoping they can delay long enough for the midterm elections to roll around.

This is my concern with Trump, he has been so caustic, so insulting and belittling to so many on the dems side of the house and to some in the gop that im very interested to see if and how he can mend those fences to actually get stuff done. Politicians carry serious grudges.

Exactly. Unless he has some way of hand-picking the Senate Majority Leader and the Speaker of the House, he will absolutely need to be in the good graces of Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan, not to mention other senators like Ted Cruz and Rand Paul. Trump scorched a lot of earth in his own party during the primaries.

It's like I said on another thread, Trump may call himself a Republican but he's not their Republican. He may have gotten some grudging support in order to keep Clinton out of office since they all had a mutual enemy, but now that she's out of the way? I'd say that all bets are off.

Yeah sure but it'll be in bitcoin
Btw my stake is now worth 3 times what it was back in January.
Get some
 
I'm willing to give President Elect Donald Trump a chance to prove himself. He has a small window to make good on his promises because the left and their media backers have declared war on the trumpster. My advise to President Elect Trump be careful who you bring into your orbit. If you must bring many into your orbit to heal the wounds remember what Don Corleone once said "Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer". Scorched earth Donald, scorched earth, to get things done.
 
Most of these things that he has put in are already under the Obama administration and before that were in the Bush administration and before that Clinton and so on.

What I have the biggest issue with is the 35% tax increase on companies going overseas. Who do you think they will be charging? You think they are going to take that out of the walmart employee's salary or the walmart executive? That is going to be passed on. and that is if Walmart doesn't lobby congress.

This is little change and dubious on the things that are not already accomplished before even Obama got into office.
 
That would be awesome if even he achieved some of those goals. I'm not at all optimistic as I believe Trump has been showing us who he is for decades, and I just don't see any part that says humanitarian/dedicated public servant.
 
This is a real joke from a man who never spoke to a Black audiance before like the NAACP Convention or the Urban League. There are these Uncle Ruckuses who just hold signs. Doubt there would be a Black in his cabinet.

Trump suggests funding historically black colleges may be unconstitutional


  • President Donald Trump signaled Friday that a 25-year-old federal program helping finance construction projects on historically black college campuses may be unconstitutional.

  • In a statement released after signing the government spending bill that deterred a government shutdown, Trump wrote that the HBCU funding program is an example of a program “that allocate benefits on the basis of race, ethnicity and gender.“

  • He said his administration would make sure the provision is consistent with the equal protection of the laws under the Fifth Amendment. Read more. (5/6/17, 10:04 AM)
