Isn’t “Founding Fathers” hate speech?

The tax rate and the regulation levels are the same as before the election. Those both need to come down drastically and Obamacare needs to be repealed before that claim is credible.

Notice that the CEO didn’t say ‘the most business friendly ENVIRONMENT’, he said ‘most business friendly ADMINISTRATION.

Trump still has to deliver.

Congress is going to get an ass whipping next Tuesday.

That is going to be must watch internet.

Good that he is pro business, but I hope to see huge reductions of the regulations and other burdens that cripple small business.

Meh. It’s a good start, but it would be nice if businesses could hire whom they wish, and it would be nice if tax regulations were cut to a small fraction of what they are.

But yes, like that.

Some folks look at all the good being done and that which is in the wings, others purposely step in dog crap so they can focus on it.....then they complain about the stench which they created for themselves...might consider sending a resume to the WaaaaPo/NYT/CNN, etc.

No shit. But Trump has only been in office for a freakin month. I wish it was a self-draining swamp but unfortunately that is not the case.
