Pluribus, when I see trump do at least one of the following, I will hail Trump as the greatest:
1. Stop printing money.
2. Audit the Fed.
3. Eliminate unconstitutional agencies such as the Department of Education and many others.
4. Seal and close the borders.
5. Deport millions of illegals (not just the bad criminals for they are all criminals for just being here).
6. Close a few military bases scattered throughout 150+ countries throughout the world.
7. Reform Social Security and make it solvent.
8. STOP SPENDING MONEY WE DON'T HAVE (balanced budget).
There are things Trump will do and there are those things Trump will not touch with a 39 and a half foot pole.
Don't get me wrong, I love what I am seeing from Mr. Trump and I applaud him but, like he was in his first term, he won't touch the real serious issues.
1. Right now, he can slow it down, but our deficit and service to the debt precludes stopping the presses. Watch the Dems screaming as they see their empire crumble.
2. He passed judgement on their holding steady on rates, he is watching.
3. It is happening as we post.
4. It is happening as we post, the reaction in LA is proof that it is happening and the border crossings have plummeted.
5. We will cross the Rubicon when Homan starts concentrating on "non-criminal border crossers. The Dems are going nuts as they watch their election cheat ability erode away.
6. Right now, Trump is looking at the Middle East. Taking over Gaza? Telling Iran that any attack on him will result in "obliteration" of Iran? Finally, someone is sick and tired of the interference of Iran in promoting unrest in the ME and is going to do something about "canceling their stamp". Keep an eye on Russia.
7. SSA is locked in, contractually, by the fact that everyone pays into the fund, so cutting benefits will be a MAJOR political upheaval, something DC just does not do. So maybe the only short term answer is the delaying of benefits or even the increase in taxes. There is not a good answer for this one. My opinion is that 2034(?) will come by and benefits will be cut back a percentage as the trust fund will be depleted and only current taxation will support payments.
8. A balanced budget has become impossible. The reason being the increase of the service on the debt has skyrocketed. I would like to see a plan showing a progressive decline in spending versus the debt, something any house hold would do under the same circumstances. It will take the same time, maybe 50 years of selective trimming to get the country in good economic stead. Kill spending and keep taxes as they are now.
9. add on: Watch what Musk is doing, USAID and Education department. Musk is taking the heat off of Trump. As he obviously does not give a damn about political ramifications, he will be an effective cost cutter. A measure of that is the Dems attacking him in droves. The more pissed off they become, the better job he is doing.
Eff the Dems. Maybe eventually the press will stop covering the SOBs.
