Up until now Ronald Reagan was my favorite president in modern history. But remarkably, Donald Trump has passed my hero Reagan in his first 6 days. Trump makes Reagan look like he was standing in quicksand. Trump makes Reagan look like a slacker. Trump makes Reagan look like a liberal (almost).
I was honored to be opening speaker at each of Donald Trumps six events in Las Vegas, Nevada in the past year. At each of these giant rallies I recited a dream wish list of everything Trump might do in his first term. Conservatives responded with wild applause and standing ovations for each line.
Then I added, Trump will do all of that on day one. Can you imagine what hell accomplish on his second day? The crowd roared with delight.
But I was joking. I was dreaming out loud. These were my wildest expectations. I was hoping and praying he might pass some of them in his first 100 days, or maybe his first year, or in his first term.
I never expected in my wildest dreams to be guilty of UNDER-promising!
I was among the first to endorse Donald Trump and predict his victory- over twenty months ago. I said over and over again that he would be our generations Ronald Reagan. And that his CAN-DO businessmans attitude would make things happen fast.
But THIS is ridiculous.
Trump has gone straight from CAN-DO to Already Done. ' Its only been 6 days and already my wish list is in place:
Trump used Executive orders to give the go-ahead to the long-stalled Keystone and Dakota Access Pipelines. America is open for business again (and high-paying middle class jobs).
Trump erased all mentions on the White House web site of climate change. He did that within ONE HOUR of taking the oath of office. Are you kidding me? Its almost as if conservatives like me have died and gone to heaven. But wait, it gets better
Trump erased all Spanish language from the White House web site. It is now English Only. Its like Christmas in January.
Yesterday Trump issued an Executive order starting the construction of THE WALL. Liberals heads must be ready to explode.
He also announced the hiring of 10,000 new border agents.
He will soon announce a temporary ban on refugees from Syria and Middle Eastern war zones.
He also announced a ban on visas from dangerous Muslim-majority countries with inadequate screening.
He also announce the end of Sanctuary cities and the defunding of federal funds for any city that chooses to continue breaking the law.
He also signed an Executive order demanding the Secretary of Homeland Security publish a weekly list of violent crimes committed by illegal aliens.
Trump signed an Executive order freezing the hiring of non-essential federal employees. He is the first President EVER to figure out that government employees are busting the budget and bankrupting America with their obscene salaries and benefits, plus pensions that can best be described as insane. And there are far too many of them.
Trump issued an Executive order to ease the burden of Obamacare and as a bonus, made it clear to Congressional Republicans he wants Obamacare repealed and replaced FAST.
Trump said out loud the words radical Islamic terrorism. He did it in his inaugural speech- which means Trump did in his first 15 minutes as president what Obama would not do in eight years.
Trump has announced plans to dramatically lower taxes.
Trump has announced plans to cut 75% of regulations and maybe more. SEVENTY FIVE PERCENT? Only a billionaire CAN-DO businessman aims for the moon.
What a breath of fresh air.
Trump withdrew America from the TPP treaty that kills middle class American jobs. Even liberal unions applauded.
Trump announced he will renegotiate NAFTA in a matter of days.
The Trump State Department will begin an immediate review of Obamas final hour giveaway of $220 million to the Palestinian Authority while Congress had a hold on the money.
The NY Times reports Trump is preparing Executive orders to drastically reduce funding and AmericaDonald Trump Is Already the Greatest Conservative President in Modern Historys involvement in the United Nations and international treaties. Ive been waiting a lifetime for this one. Its Christmas in January!
Trump announced hell begin a major investigation into voter fraud in the 2016 election. He believes millions of illegal aliens voted. Its about time a Republican woke up- I believe he is right on the money.
So heres my message to President Trump. Start your investigation in my home state of Nevada. I believe the so-called Harry Reid Machine used thousands of illegal alien voters to steal the state from Trump and the GOP. Make Nevada your Exhibit A.
And Im counting on President Trump to pass National Voter ID laws so Democrats can never use voter fraud or illegal aliens to steal elections ever again.
By the way, Trump signed all these Executive orders with the bust of Winston Churchill behind him- back in the Oval Office for the first time in eight years. If image is important and symbolic, this says everything. Trump is erasing Obama as if he never existed.
Lastly, corporations across the globe have all publicly announced they are bringing jobs and billions of dollars of investment monies back to America because of President Trump- and many of those announcements came BEFORE Trump was even sworn in.
Simply amazing. Breathtaking. Head-spinning.
And all of this happened in Trumps first 6 days. Even God rested on the 7th day. Im betting Trump doesnt.
Can you imagine what Trump will do starting in his second week?
There is no longer any doubt- Donald Trump is already the greatest conservative president in history.
I confess I’m excited.
Aside from ordering the construction of the wall and cracking down on sanctuary cities, Trump is reversing Obama’s Executive Orders. You can’t compare the presidencies yet.
I may be able to quit the blood pressure meds now that Trump is in and Obama is gone.
#9 President Trump - The Human Cyclone

Semper President TRUMP!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
My steel stocks have been tanking the last few days! :(
It's almost as though the President starts his day by reading Free Republic, then gets his staff together to craft that day's executive orders.
The convergence between this man's mind and ours', is staggering.
It is unbelievable the amount of energy that President Trump has put into the first days of his term. The momentum he is creating has completely disoriented his opposition. After so many politicians forgetting their promises almost immediately I am astounded by what a “non-politician” has been able to get on the table in such a short period of time.
Agreed. Trump is magnificent, exceeding all expectations. Wow. So Awsome!
America 2.0 has begun.
My favorite line....

This and SCOTUS next week. I like where this is going..
Don’t forget the little stuff: Those two VA employees who “could not be fired” during the Congressional grilling of VA head(one committed armed robbery while an employee, other one bribing employees to cover up arrests) were still working on 19th Jan but were let go on inauguration day; ISIS bombing and death of al-Baghdadi, etc.
author didn’t mention defunding of International Planned Parenthood!
Agree 10000 percent!! I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE President Trump..SO proud to call this man MY President(And let’s not forget Mike Pence he is pretty darn awesome himself!) For all the people who said that Trump was a fraud and would not be a real Conservative, how does that crow taste..I hear it tastes like chicken
I was just thinking this morning, that Trump has already created a new blueprint for prospective candidates at all levels of elective office.
He's the very model of the sort of person the Framers envisioned as public office holders.
AMEN!
President Trump is doing this despite the fact of Dems in the Senate like Chuckie and DiFi dragging their feet and delaying his Cabinet Secretaries as long as possible, Democrats are scared to death as well they should be.
