Trump's first 100 days in office.

What happens in the first 100 days after January 20th? Make your predictions here.


Does a ban on Muslims entering the country start? Does construction on the wall start? Will Mexico pay for it? Are illegal immigrants going to be rounded up?

Does Trump try to drop out of NAFTA? NATO?

Does the Affordable Care Act get repealed? Replaced with what?


Trump has made a lot of promises and has promised lofty goals with very few specifics on exactly how they would be implemented. What specific steps will he take in the first 100 days?

You see this is what got the short bus party in trouble with the masses:Does a ban on Muslims entering the country start? No one was ever banning Muslims. Does construction on the wall start? Probably not. Will Mexico pay for it? When its built they will pay through tariffs. Are illegal immigrants going to be rounded up? The illegal criminal aliens will be rounded up.

Does Trump try to drop out of NAFTA? NATO? He will attempt to make changes to bad trade deals. He will restructure bad deals.

Does the Affordable Care Act get repealed? Replaced with what? The republicans have an entire plan online that can be viewed. It will be corrected and likely change the name. They will make it so people can keep the insurance. Put it this way it will provided in a way that is more business minded to be sustainable rather than a massive give away project.


Trump has made a lot of promises and has promised lofty goals with very few specifics on exactly how they would be implemented. What specific steps will he take in the first 100 days?.......I don't the order he will do things in the first 100 days. But he will start with cancelling the many executive orders that Obama abused.

I want to know this because its always been confusing to me. Are we going to hold him to his lofty promises made in an election? The reason I asked is because nobody made more lofty promises and did less than Obama. He wasn't held accountable by anyone.

The only way Trump will benefit conservatives is with a SCOTUS nom. Trump will break every single promise he made except that one. It will be glorious seeing his already-angry base turn on him.

Read my lips: when you make promises you can't keep, you end up paying for it. Obamacare will stay; there will be no wall; the 14th Amendment won't be repealed. But the fantasies of the "burning down" of Washington by this outsider will be be quickly destroyed.

We're not freaked out. We know about his history on abortion, gay rights, etc. He's not nearly as conservative as his fans want him to be. It's going to be a great show, watching the rednecks realized that Trump wasn't their guy who will burn down Washington, deregulate everything, stop illegal immigration, and something about decreasing taxes.

It's both sad and Funny. I mean, I love America and don't look forward to the impending debt, violence, economic inability, and social unrest. But I enjoy the fact that his angry base will get what they deserve.

Yep.

The Democrats need to appoint as their leader, the Honorable Senator Fil A. Buster.

And his agenda should be, in the words of two prominent Republicans re: President Obama and his agenda....

“.... to do everything — and I mean everything we can do — to kill it, stop it, slow it down, whatever we can.”

“The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Trump to be a one-term president.”

Time to kick these bastards in the teeth with their own steel-toed boot. Sabotage the economy the way they did, then blame it on them so that in the 2018 midterms, control of Congress will fall back into the hands of the good guys.

No repeal of Obamacare and only work with them if they actually produce a plan to improve it, that will accomplish something on a revolutionary scale.

It's hard ball time, people. We need to demand it.

Alright my friend, he said in speeches after this when challenged we had to stop the entries until we repaired our ability to see who they are, and for the record our governmenrt said we couldn't validate identities....Is Trump sometimes inartful the way he speaks? Yes! Get over it........You leave many details out intentially I assume or your point doesnt work.. It doesn't build much trust.

Will he implement that plan in the first 100 days?

Beyond cancelling executive orders (which ones?), you offer no real specifics.

How the can any of us answer that question in detail the day after the election? BTW if he does eliminate all the the EA's it would be a big thing because the lawless Obama passed these after he said he wouldn't and that they were likely unconstitutional. What is your Fing point other than BUTT hurt?

Obama said all legislation would be required to be put online and reviewed for 72 hours before a vote would be taken so everyone had a chance to review and understand what we would be voting on.............Then Obamacare came into play and he broke his promise immediately and never did this once. You weren't in here complaining then...............In fact it was stupid celebration by liberals as they lied to us and that has also been proven now.

What do you want? If its to complain without context go right ahead.

Along the lines of what Tex has brought up do you think that Trump in his rescinding of all of Obamas executive orders will rescind as well the concept of the use of expanded executive order authority that the POTUS has received over the past several decades?

Trump has made a lot of promises and has promised lofty goals with very few specifics on exactly how they would be implemented. What specific steps will he take in the first 100 days?
Exactly! How would he do all that? It sounds great to make all those promises but just read ALL he says he would do in just ONE (1) day! Simply incredible and pretty tall orders! But lets watch to see if he actually does it or he's just talking through both sides of his mouth.

What President-Elect Donald Trump Has Pledged to Do in His First 100 Days
By Adam Kelsey

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/president-elect-donald-trump-pledged-100-days/story?id=43424814

"Laying out the aims of his administration, Trump said he will “repeal and replace ‘Obamacare,’” “immediately suspend the admission of Syrian refugees,” “order a review of every single regulation issued over the last eight years,” “begin lifting all regulations that are hurting our workers and our businesses,” “terminate every single unconstitutional executive order signed by President Obama,” “restore the rule of law to our land,” “begin implementing plans for construction of a wall along our southern border” and “get rid of” international gangs of thugs and drug cartels — all on his first day."

"In the subsequent 99 days, Trump has promised to “drain the swamp” — the campaign’s term for rooting out corruption in Washington. A major pledge of his is a “constitutional amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress.” Representatives and senators may currently serve an unlimited number of two- and six-year terms, respectively."

"Additionally, Trump has proposed a law barring government officials from lobbying the government within five years of their service and prohibiting lobbying by those officials on behalf of foreign governments. He also said he will institute a hiring freeze in order to reduce the size of the federal government. Campaign finance reform would take the form of forbidding foreign lobbyists to raise money on behalf of campaigns in the U.S."

I predict 25% of the things will get started in the first 100 days.

Also other things not mentioned will get started as well
Construction will begin on the wall,or at least 2 cranes will be sent there and sit for a couple months. :rofl:

Trump paid for 2 cranes to sit onsite for like 7 months in my town.Not sure if that ever got built.

The wall will get built.It's already been funded..twice.

Rumor has it that both Mexico and Canada have started on their own versions of "The Wall" and will send us a bill when done. Both are said to be about 60 feet tall, built of stone and concrete, wide enough at the top so that hundreds of years from now people will be able to travel and enjoy these national treasures that kept Americans from entering their respective countries. The Great Wall of Mexico is expected to be completed later next year, followed soon by The Great Wall of Canada.


Not to be outdone, the President-elect announced that American would be building two, even taller and more impressive walls, The Trump Pacific and Trump Atlantic Walls. China has agreed to provide engineering expertise. Who'll pay for the east and west walls remains unclear, but the future President says he expects that "many, many countries around the world will gladly pay for them to keep Americans in their home country."

Of course the rio Grande river represents the entire Texas border with Mexico.

which side of the river gets the wall?
Which country would give up access to the river?

why have I never heard anyone ask trump this question?

If you want bigtime entertainment ask @FindersKeepers (http://thepoliticalforums.com/member.php?u=1881) this question. Her response has been to build a wall in the middle of the rio Grande 1000 miles long.

seriously. Ask her.

I sense that your loss in the political world has caused you to create false narratives. We once talked about how a bridge could CROSS a river -- not how it could be constructed 1000 miles down the center of a river.

I see now that we might have been on a topic too strenuous for you to comprehend.

Stop it you two. Mexico is building the wall, it's their problem. Ford has agreed to provide a fleet of trucks to transport construction materials and Carrier is providing air conditioned living quarters for workers. All is well.

Great Times!

You recognize of course that the American/Canadian border is the longest border between two countries in the entire world and my guess is it would be one more thing on our tab.

Yeah, that looks credible.

The fact is, the 9/11 terrorists didn't come from Canada. Canadians emergency workers drove down to the US to help after 9/11. Canadian families opened up their homes to stranded Americans when all flights were grounded.

You'd be more credible if you dealt in facts instead of conspiracy theories and myths.

Either your memory is lacking, which I'm prone to think it probably is, or you're in such a tiff over your candidate losing that you're just going to continue digging yourself a bigger hole.

You're certainly welcome to dig back through the archives to find where I either advocated a physical wall, or said it'd be feasible to build a wall running the entire span of the Rio Grande river. You won't find it. Know why? It doesn't exist.

That doesn't mean you didn't misunderstand the conversation. I find that a lot of conversations sail right over your head. But, ye of little architectural knowledge once asked how a wall could cross a river, and, because I take pity on the less fortunate, I helped you out.

Nor did we talk about building a wall the entire span of the rio Grande. We instead talked of building a wall the entire length of the rio Grande because that is what trump has promised with his border wall.And you advocated building it right down the middle.

Gawd only knows why you asked. Having a dam near your house isn't exactly an indicator that you understand construction principles. I live a couple of miles away from a company that manufacturers military drones but that doesn't automatically qualify as a drone expert.
