He DEFEATED Hillary Rotten Clinton in the election ... America had NO chance with her as President. No, Trump is not going to do everything exactly as I would like, but 100% of what he does will be better than what Hilly would have done. I can live with that & I am not getting upset over rumors, made up stories by the media, leaks by “unnamed sources”, etc. If I don’t hear it out of Trump’s mouth, it hasn’t happened.

“He DEFEATED Hillary Rotten Clinton in the election ... America had NO chance with her as President.”

Certainly true. However, he *cannot* waver on three things during his first term (actually, he can’t waver period, but I hope you get my point) :

1> Illegal immigration : His entire base of support was literally built on drastic solutions to this problem. We cannot afford a “compromised” solution to this problem. It MUST be solved, period, or we’re dead in the water. This MUST involve methods to prevent illegal entry into this country, deportation of most, if not all, offenders (starting with those that have a criminal record on down), and a means to pay for the solution.

2> Repealing Obamacare : This law has to be eliminated like yesterday. I think everyone is in agreement on that.

3> Repatriating American companies so that they provide employment (especially in the rust belt states) : this *cannot* be done with crony-esque favors. It has to be done due to a level playing field at the FedGov level.

I suspect Trump will warm up his Presidency with #2. That should be a (relatively) straightforward win and could earn him some political capital.

From there, illegal immigration is going to be *the* battle ... it just better be worth it as I am NOT going to settle for some half-assed solution. Topics from #3 can be used to smack liberals into shape during fights over illegal immigrants.

However, again, his solution to the illegal immigration nightmare will be what defines his Presidency rather early and will determine if his support remains or checks out :-).

Half or more of these ‘leaks from inside sources’ have turned out to be wrong.

They are only officials when Trump announces them or strongly hints at a secret selectee at one of his rallies.

But he has my everlasting gratitude for that, and I will overlook any shortcomings that may crop up later.

The main thing is any supreme court picks he can get. All else is gravy. Hopefully he can get at least 2 if not 3.
