Better as: On Time, Under Budget, and Within Specification(s).
This country was never meant to have professional politicians. It was intended to be run by competent, caring citizens who will guard and protect the Constitution and their fellow citizens and then go home and live among them under the rules they set.
Nobody really has foreign policy experience when they go into that job, I’d rather have a businessman who thinks quick and knows how to make a deal
Snip:
“The first thing you do when you want a building project to succeed is assemble a team of architects, superintendents, subcontractors, suppliers, and workers who excel at what they do. Watching the assembling of Trump’s transition team, his cabinet, and his other appointments has been a treat. Yep, he’s done this before, and it’s quite clear that what he’s doing is selecting a team of individuals who excel.
“I love the media reports of how bad he is at assembling his cabinet. I love how they nitpick it all, telling us how disorganized and sloppy he is, and then, when he makes a pick, they say just how terrible a pick he just made. Why, these appointments are just as racist, homophobic, and misogynistic as he is (including the non-whites and women).
“...the Trump team is poised to pull off its own version of Shock and Awe. Only this time, it’s not going to be used to take down a dictator; rather, it will be the takedown of the misplaced leftist nonsense that has run rampant in our country for well over a decade.”
“....there is a wonderful force approaching. The team of builders is about to make some remarkable things happen. They will try to make them happen with regularity, speed, and great competence. Much to the dismay of the left, Shock and Awe may become the norm as the country is put on the right track. This team of extraordinary builders will be making America great again.
Donald Trump has many flaws, more than his fair share,
...
I think he has fewer flaws than most, but the media doesn’t portray him that way.
Possible side benefit from all of this —
The standard caveat for can-do people who move into government is that government is “different”. You can’t fire civil servants, no one is accountable, blah, blah, blah.
I’m hoping (and expecting) that Trump will do things on time and under budget and when he hits a long-standing roadblock because government is “different” he will make a sweeping change and say, “Fixed. Now you will operate like you belong to the real world.”
Getting rid of government unions like SEIU would be a big help.
Winning ping!
As excited as I am for the future, I sure wish Phyllis Schafly would have lived just a bit longer to see what she helped accomplish.
Attention to detail and honest estimates are key - with the “lowest bidder” mentality, companies are rewarded for underestimating and then delaying and running up costs to the point where the “cheapest” ends up being more costly than the highest bids that may have been considered and rejected.
Best article I’ve read in awhile. Emailed the link to a bunch of friends.
Thanks.
Underestimating POTUS ELECT Donald Trump seems to be a trap may fools have fallen into.
