What follows is my 100-day action plan to Make America Great Again. It is a contract between myself and the American voter ? and begins with restoring honesty, accountability and change to Washington

Therefore, on the first day of my term of office, my administration will immediately pursue the following six measures to clean up the corruption and special interest collusion in Washington, DC:

* FIRST, propose a Constitutional Amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress;

* SECOND, a hiring freeze on all federal employees to reduce federal workforce through attrition (exempting military, public safety, and public health);

* THIRD, a requirement that for every new federal regulation, two existing regulations must be eliminated;

* FOURTH, a 5 year-ban on White House and Congressional officials becoming lobbyists after they leave government service;

* FIFTH, a lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying on behalf of a foreign government;

* SIXTH, a complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American elections.

On the same day, I will begin taking the following 7 actions to protect American workers:

* FIRST, I will announce my intention to renegotiate NAFTA or withdraw from the deal under Article 2205

* SECOND, I will announce our withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership

* THIRD, I will direct my Secretary of the Treasury to label China a currency manipulator

* FOURTH, I will direct the Secretary of Commerce and U.S. Trade Representative to identify all foreign trading abuses that unfairly impact American workers and direct them to use every tool under American and international law to end those abuses immediately

* FIFTH, I will lift the restrictions on the production of $50 trillion dollars' worth of job-producing American energy reserves, including shale, oil, natural gas and clean coal.

* SIXTH, lift the Obama-Clinton roadblocks and allow vital energy infrastructure projects, like the Keystone Pipeline, to move forward

* SEVENTH, cancel billions in payments to U.N. climate change programs and use the money to fix America's water and environmental infrastructure

Additionally, on the first day, I will take the following five actions to restore security and the constitutional rule of law:

* FIRST, cancel every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum and order issued by President Obama

* SECOND, begin the process of selecting a replacement for Justice Scalia from one of the 20 judges on my list, who will uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States

* THIRD, cancel all federal funding to Sanctuary Cities

* FOURTH, begin removing the more than 2 million criminal illegal immigrants from the country and cancel visas to foreign countries that won't take them back

* FIFTH, suspend immigration from terror-prone regions where vetting cannot safely occur. All vetting of people coming into our country will be considered extreme vetting.

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:

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

On November 8th, Americans will be voting for this 100-day plan to restore prosperity to our economy, security to our communities, and honesty to our government.

This is my pledge to you.

And if we follow these steps, we will once more have a government of, by and for the people.
 
Some good stuff mixed with some idiocy. A requirement to eliminate two regulations for every new regulation? How does that make any sense? And how does it do any good? I don't see it. The next four years are going to be brutal.
 
some of - actually A LOT of - those 100 day plans are undermined by the fact that his transition team is entirely composed of corporate lobbyists from DC. The same corporate lobbyists he promised to "drain the swamp" of, and who are despised by the dumbasses who voted for him because they were sick of "business as usual." one guy was even partners with one of Hillary's own advisor/lobbyists.
 
terms limits for the chief executive makes sense; term limits for congressmen and senators less so. It basically just means you'll have a less powerful legislature vis-a-vis the president, which is DEFINITELY not the direction this country and its government should be going. it's one of those ideas that sounds good on paper but makes less sense when you think about it.
 
Is it? Sounds like it'd be legit. I haven't been watching the news much today.

it has to be a joke - I don't see anything about throwing Clinton, Ryan, etc in jail, starting a nuclear war or defunding any government program that helps any demographic outside straight white males.
 
why do we need to "rebuild" our military? we already spend more on it than the next ELEVEN biggest militaries combined! and we do this with incredibly vague controls and financial discipline.

there was a report from this summer that the US military has misplaced one trillion dollars in spending they can't account for. One trillion. and they're never actually audited, even though they pretend to be.

congress can't make them do that; they have guns and bombs and stuff; congress doesn't. But we should keep feeding them more, or we'll be conquered by China and Russia or something. Or ISIS will build a navy and airforce and conquer the East Coast. that could happen, right?

Don't lump me in with those liberals. I'm not and will never be like that.

I don't think we need to rebuild. We need to invest in making it more efficient and continue to improve technology. Not sure why Trump and co. think spending more money automatically makes us safer.

i'm not lumping you in with them. I'm well aware of where you stand regarding all the race baiting nonsense - I thought you might get a laugh out of it.

My bad. I read it wrong. Hard to pick that up in text form, I guess.
 
Well I heard that a climage change denier was named to oversee the EPA transition.
So that is terrible news if true.
 
LOL, Well before he takes office, this COMPLETE FRAUD of a man has to resolve all the FRAUD lawsuits related to his Trump University scam. there's the one pending in CA before a "Mexican judge" and a class action pending in NY brought by the State attorney general.

because these occured before he takes office, he doesn't receive any immunity from them. If they're not resolved by January, he could very well be in court testifying that his scam university didn't defraud the idiots who believe he was actually a successful real estate developer, not a complete charlatan and reality TV star. what an embarassment.
 
the one good thing about the next four years... my god, the Trump administration is going to be a freaking GOLD MINE of political humor.

I can't find it on youtube, and I'm too much of a tech neophyte to know how to post it myself, but the opening of Netflix Chelsea Handler, episode 76 taped on election day before the results were known is a gem.

My guess is pretty much everybody has streaming Netflix - fuck, even I have streaming Netflix - so I would recommend everybody go check it out.
