Read this carefully. You'll find an increase in military spending, the
dismantling of Obama Care, the dismanteling of Medicaid with moves to make
adult children financially responsible for their elderly parents' care,
(It's camouflaged), an increase in all fossil fuel projects, a withdrawal
from any climate change efforts, increased incarceration, the wall, and very
possibly a dismantling of our NLS program, (see reduction of government
workers other than the military and public health). If I read one more post
on this list that tells me that there's no real difference between our 2
major parties, I may truly have a heart attack.

Here Is What Donald Trump Wants to Do in His First 100 Days
By Amita Kelly, NPR
10 November 16
At the end of October, Donald Trump spoke in Gettysburg, Pa., and released
a plan for his first 100 days in office.
The plan (below) outlines three main areas of focus: cleaning up Washington,
including by imposing term limits on Congress; protecting American workers;
and restoring rule of law. He also laid out his plan for working with
Congress to introduce 10 pieces of legislation that would repeal Obamacare,
fund the construction of a wall at the Southern border (with a provision
that Mexico would reimburse the U.S.), encourage infrastructure investment,
rebuild military bases, promote school choice and more.
On Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell mostly made nice with
Trump but also shot down or expressed little enthusiasm in some of his
plans. On Trump's proposal to impose term limits on Congress, McConnell
said, "It will not be on the agenda in the Senate." McConnell has been a
long-standing opponent of term limits, as NPR's Susan Davis reports. "I
would say we have term limits now - they're called elections."
McConnell also threw some cold water on Trump's infrastructure plans,
calling it not a top priority.
McConnell did say repealing Obamacare is a "pretty high item on our agenda"
along with comprehensive tax reform and achieving border security "in
whatever way is the most effective." But he also declined to discuss the
Senate's immigration agenda further.
"We look forward to working with him," McConnell said. "I think most of the
things that he's likely to advocate we're going to be enthusiastically for."
Below is the 100-day plan Trump's campaign released in October, called
"Donald Trump's Contract With The American Voter."
What follows is my 100-day action plan to Make America Great Again. It is a
contract between myself and the American voter - and begins with restoring
honesty, accountability and change to Washington
Therefore, on the first day of my term of office, my administration will
immediately pursue the following six measures to clean up the corruption and
special interest collusion in Washington, DC:
* FIRST, propose a Constitutional Amendment to impose term limits on all
members of Congress;
* SECOND, a hiring freeze on all federal employees to reduce federal
workforce through attrition (exempting military, public safety, and public
health);
* THIRD, a requirement that for every new federal regulation, two existing
regulations must be eliminated;
* FOURTH, a 5 year-ban on White House and Congressional officials becoming
lobbyists after they leave government service;
* FIFTH, a lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying on behalf of a
foreign government;
* SIXTH, a complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American
elections.
On the same day, I will begin taking the following 7 actions to protect
American workers:
* FIRST, I will announce my intention to renegotiate NAFTA or withdraw from
the deal under Article 2205
* SECOND, I will announce our withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership
* THIRD, I will direct my Secretary of the Treasury to label China a
currency manipulator
* FOURTH, I will direct the Secretary of Commerce and U.S. Trade
Representative to identify all foreign trading abuses that unfairly impact
American workers and direct them to use every tool under American and
international law to end those abuses immediately
* FIFTH, I will lift the restrictions on the production of $50 trillion
dollars' worth of job-producing American energy reserves, including shale,
oil, natural gas and clean coal.
* SIXTH, lift the Obama-Clinton roadblocks and allow vital energy
infrastructure projects, like the Keystone Pipeline, to move forward
* SEVENTH, cancel billions in payments to U.N. climate change programs and
use the money to fix America's water and environmental infrastructure
Additionally, on the first day, I will take the following five actions to
restore security and the constitutional rule of law:
* FIRST, cancel every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum and
order issued by President Obama
* SECOND, begin the process of selecting a replacement for Justice Scalia
from one of the 20 judges on my list, who will uphold and defend the
Constitution of the United States
* THIRD, cancel all federal funding to Sanctuary Cities
* FOURTH, begin removing the more than 2 million criminal illegal immigrants
from the country and cancel visas to foreign countries that won't take them
back
* FIFTH, suspend immigration from terror-prone regions where vetting cannot
safely occur. All vetting of people coming into our country will be
considered extreme vetting.
Next, I will work with Congress to introduce the following broader
legislative measures and fight for their passage within the first 100 days
of my Administration:
1. Middle Class Tax Relief And Simplification Act. An economic plan
designed to grow the economy 4% per year and create at least 25 million new
jobs through massive tax reduction and simplification, in combination with
trade reform, regulatory relief, and lifting the restrictions on American
energy. The largest tax reductions are for the middle class. A middle-class
family with 2 children will get a 35% tax cut. The current number of
brackets will be reduced from 7 to 3, and tax forms will likewise be greatly
simplified. The business rate will be lowered from 35 to 15 percent, and the
trillions of dollars of American corporate money overseas can now be brought
back at a 10 percent rate.
2. End The Offshoring Act. Establishes tariffs to discourage companies
from laying off their workers in order to relocate in other countries and
ship their products back to the U.S. tax-free.
3. American Energy & Infrastructure Act. Leverages public-private
partnerships, and private investments through tax incentives, to spur $1
trillion in infrastructure investment over 10 years. It is revenue neutral.
4. School Choice And Education Opportunity Act. Redirects education
dollars to give parents the right to send their kid to the public, private,
charter, magnet, religious or home school of their choice. Ends common core,
brings education supervision to local communities. It expands vocational and
technical education, and make 2 and 4-year college more affordable.
5. Repeal and Replace Obamacare Act. Fully repeals Obamacare and
replaces it with Health Savings Accounts, the ability to purchase health
insurance across state lines, and lets states manage Medicaid funds. Reforms
will also include cutting the red tape at the FDA: there are over 4,000
drugs awaiting approval, and we especially want to speed the approval of
life-saving medications.
6. Affordable Childcare and Eldercare Act. Allows Americans to deduct
childcare and elder care from their taxes, incentivizes employers to provide
on-side childcare services, and creates tax-free Dependent Care Savings
Accounts for both young and elderly dependents, with matching contributions
for low-income families.
7. End Illegal Immigration Act Fully-funds the construction of a wall
on our southern border with the full understanding that the country Mexico
will be reimbursing the United States for the full cost of such wall;
establishes a 2-year mandatory minimum federal prison sentence for illegally
re-entering the U.S. after a previous deportation, and a 5-year mandatory
minimum for illegally re-entering for those with felony convictions,
multiple misdemeanor convictions or two or more prior deportations; also
reforms visa rules to enhance penalties for overstaying and to ensure open
jobs are offered to American workers first.
8. Restoring Community Safety Act. Reduces surging crime, drugs and
violence by creating a Task Force On Violent Crime and increasing funding
for programs that train and assist local police; increases resources for
federal law enforcement agencies and federal prosecutors to dismantle
criminal gangs and put violent offenders behind bars.
9. Restoring National Security Act. Rebuilds our military by
eliminating the defense sequester and expanding military investment;
provides Veterans with the ability to receive public VA treatment or attend
the private doctor of their choice; protects our vital infrastructure from
cyber-attack; establishes new screening procedures for immigration to ensure
those who are admitted to our country support our people and our values
10. Clean up Corruption in Washington Act. Enacts new ethics reforms to
Drain the Swamp and reduce the corrupting influence of special interests on
our politics.
On November 8th, Americans will be voting for this 100-day plan to restore
prosperity to our economy, security to our communities, and honesty to our
government.
This is my pledge to you.
And if we follow these steps, we will once more have a government of, by and
for the people.
