Thoughts on Day-D +1
The vacuum betwixt my ears | Today | Me

Posted on 11/09/2016 11:46:15 AM PST by Renkluaf

Am I surprised and happy today? Yes. But now the real work begins.

  1. Getting an originalist SCOTUS nominee successfully through a Senate that may create as much push-back from repubs as dems.
  2. A cabinet that can cull the dem-supporting dead wood and come up with programs that are catalysts for the economy rather than obstacles.
  3. A market-based alternative to Obama-care.
  4. Getting tax reform and an economic agenda through Congress.

    Doing is always much tougher than talking but I feel good about our direction for the first time in many years.

President Trump should appoint Justice Janice Rogers Brown to the Supreme Court. She’s a black woman and that would stop the wild slander from ALL the dumb liberals about how Trump is racist. AND This is some of what Janice Brown says :

Government is the only enterprise in the world which expands in size when its failures increase.

The big mistake you and everyone makes is couching this in a political realm. Sure there will be politics but those will be Trumped (pun intended) by going over the heads of everyone political and establishment straight to the people.

RSBN has been getting setup to to more broadcasting of live events and insomuch, relegating the MSM as useless and their feeds will function in the new world. In other words, Trump will go straight to us to put the thumbscrews to them to get his agenda passed. Now that he has attained the Bully Pulpit and understands the new media, well you can put it together.

1. List already exists.
2. Cabinet should be easy
3. It's called the marketplace and allowing them to cross state lines to sell their products, sans government involvement

5. As President, Trump gets to determine how many refugees will be admitted. I’m not sure if the totals for 2017 are locked in by Obama or not, but whatever the case, Trump can soon implement a big improvement. He can end the Syrian program specifically, and greatly reduce the overall number of refugees/asylum seekers we admit. He has no excuse not to do so.
6. Reverse the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) rule Obama’s HUD is about to impose.
7. Reverse the guidance of the Obama Justice Dept that would rewrite federal law to include transgender protections; something never conceived of or approved of by Congress when passing the applicable laws Obama has sought to twist.
8. Reverse Obama’s decision to force the military to open up infantry and other frontline combat positions to women, This simply can’t be done without eventually lowering standards.
9. Work with Senator Sessions, Representative King, and others to write and then pass either a series of immigration reform bills, or a conservative comprehensive reform. Chief among the components would be measures to end chain migration and reduce mass legal immigration levels, more deportations, stricter border and interior enforcement, and absolutely no path to citizenship for any illegal who may be allowed to stay. If he has to make deals on other matters (other than the Sup Court) in order to get Ryan on board in the House, and enough Senators on board to stop the loathsome likes of Lindsay Graham and Jeff Flake from scuttling such an effort, then so be it.

No pat to legal citizenship can just be overturned once the rats come back. We need the nuclear option in the Senate.

That’s true, and I much prefer a policy whereby most illegal aliens are deported or self-deport via attrition through enforcement. It should at least be tried for several years before any legalization is even considered.

That’d work. Then for 2018 drastically reduce the overall numbers.

8. Women should compete equally with men to be able to become combat warriors. They do not need to have a menses at all for months and that is one thing that must be taken care of...too many issues with that for all kinds of reasons. I will be explicit if necessary. No standards need be lowered if women can compete as equally and be trained as equally as the men but I am of mixed opinion about mixing men and women. But squads of women would work very well together and get the job done. Without the hormonal ups and downs, no PMS, etc. they could actually work very harmoniously together if taught conflict mediaton skills.
