Donald J. Trump unveiled a pledge on Thursday to create 25 million jobs over the next decade, but he offered few details on how he would achieve that ambitious goal as president.
In remarks that may stir new consternation abroad, Mr. Trump told the Economic Club of New York that he would pay for his economic agenda in part by requiring allies to shoulder the full cost of American military resources deployed in their defense.
Mr. Trump has long criticized the country’s defense arrangements, but on Thursday he drew an uncommonly straight line between his job-creation promises and the “billions and billions of dollars” currently spent on “defending other people.” He specifically mentioned Germany, Japan, Saudi Arabia and South Korea as “economic behemoths” that the United States should not pay to protect.

Go, Trump!
It must have pained the Gray Lady to write it.
Hillary can’t get people to embrace change. We knew that already.
Trump was just elected our next President.
Well...DUH!
These countries have the resources and ability to protect themselves.
Somebody tell me a story on why they should be protected by American blood and treasure. Any plausible bullshit story will do.
Heh. Welfare for foreign governments and domestic gibsmedats is gonna go down.
Short sell dc real estate now!
The same way Ronald the great Reagan did.
1. Reduce taxes on business and the middle class. Business pays no taxes, it is passed on to the consumer and makes our exports non competitive.
2. Get the government regulations off the back of small business.
3. Welfare reform as Bill Clinton did and Obama reversed it. Workfare not welfare.
4. Drill baby drill and frac and produce oil and gas.
If you get out of the way of Free Enterprise we will flourish and at the same time we must kill "crony capitalism." Crony Capitalism is not free enterprise.
Very doable when Trump boost starts the economy.
Only if we try, and then hang every man and woman is the US Congress.
GO TRUMP!!!
Whatever his plan- It may have worked in normal times. But we are on the edge of the abyss, and the times that are a coming are going to be of great dispare. That is absolutely, and never will be Trumps fault. But it is coming. No one can stop it.
I'm going to start hiring early...
I guess I'll have to start a GOFUNDME campaign to raise money so I can hire employees...
AND tax-cuts which will also help people and the economy.
Donald Trump Promises Tax Cuts, Offset by Robust Growth

I’m considering Gofundme to raise awareness of scam insurance ‘jobs’ that take advantage of desperate young people like me. For the price of $1, a value item at McDonald’s, you get a long detailed list warning how they work and how to avoid them. For $5 you get detailed personal accounts.
