Year one of the Trump Era

Good day all. We are coming up on the new year and the first year of President Trump’s administration. This year has been wild, with President Trump undoing the, in many cases, illegal and unconstitutional actions of The Great Mistake, Barack Obama.

It’s also been plagued with what amounts to a low order coup attempt by the Progressive Democrats and several die hard Never Trumpers in the GOP(e) wing of the Beltway Uniparty. This led to the appointment of a special investigator, Robert Mueller, to look into “Russian Collusion” with the Trump campaign.

Although it hasn’t been said, the idea was to force President Trump out of office, either through resignation or impeachment. What has happened instead, were major findings of collusion with the Russians by the, wait for it, Democrats and the Felonia von Pantsuit campaign. One of the things Mueller and his band of Merry Felonia Supporters are trying to prove is that President Trump obstructed justice when he fired Mueller’s bestest buddy, James Comey.

Instead, we discovered the Uranium One scandal. This involved Felonia von Pantsuit, her “husband” Bubba Horndog, highly questionable donations to the Clinton Slush Fund Foundation, and huge speaking fees for Bubba. To top it off, Congress was never apprised of just how bad this deal was for the Untied States and how it benefited the, wait for it, Russians. Would you care to guess who was running the FBI then? Why that would be Robert Mueller.

In spite of the Deep State and the Beltway swamp dwellers going after President Trump, along with the Mostly Socialist Media making up news stories regarding President Trump and his administration, President Trump and the GOP have managed to do a lot of major work to undue the damage of 8 years of Der Fubar and 8 years of George Bush. The Washington Examiner has a list of 81 Trump wins, along with scrapping of a number of King Putt’s “Legacies.”

With the passage of the GOP tax bill this week, the Trump administration has scored 81 major achievements in its first year, making good on campaign promises to provide significant tax cuts, boost U.S. energy production, and restore respect to the United States, according to the White House.

One miss was ending Obamacare. The blame for that can be laid right at the doorsteps of the GOP(e) wing of the Uniparty. After 7 years of promises and fund raising, all to gain control of congress, and eventually the White House, it turned out that Senate Majority leader Mitch McCockless and Paul Rino had no intentions or plans to keep that promise. When President Trump took office, he called on them to put a bill on his desk repealing Obamacare. What he got was excuses, incompetence and lies.

And along the way, President Trump even outdid his own expectations and slashed at least 11 major legacy items of former President Barack Obama, including cracking down on the open border, slowing recognition of communist Cuba and effectively killing Obamacare by ending the mandate that everyone have health insurance or face a tax.

Ending the Obamacare Mandate, the part that forces Americans to buy health insurance or be fined, will pretty much kill that disaster, probably by the end of 2018. Undoing the other parts of President “Pen and Phone” besides putting a stop to Obama’s attempt to wreck the United States, also is forcing Congress to actually do their jobs.

When President Trump undid one of the SCoaMF’s executive orders, generally to screeches of outrage from the Progressives, he would turn to Congress and tell them, “If this is supposed to be good, pass a bill I can sign.” In other words, he is making Congress do the job they are constitutionally required to do. We have seen the results. Democrats demanding what amounts to the end of the United States as a free, independent, capitalistic nation, and Republicans, with a few exceptions, sitting around and having a Uniparty circle jerk.

According to the White House, the 81 accomplishments are in 12 major categories and include well over 100 other minor achievements.

Not one of which was discussed by the Mostly Stupid media, either in a positive light, or at all.

The unofficial list helps to counter the impression in the mainstream media and among congressional Democrats that outside the approval of Supreme Court Neil Gorsuch and passage of the tax reform bill little was done.

Borrowing from the Washington Examiner, here is the list of accomplishments of the First Year of Trump:

Jobs and the economy

• Passage of the tax reform bill providing $5.5 billion in cuts and repealing the Obamacare mandate.
• Increase of the GDP above 3 percent.
• Creation of 1.7 million new jobs, cutting unemployment to 4.1 percent.
• Saw the Dow Jones reach record highs.
• A rebound in economic confidence to a 17-year high.
• A new executive order to boost apprenticeships.
• A move to boost computer sciences in Education Department programs.
• Prioritizing women-owned businesses for some $500 million in SBA loans.

Killing job-stifling regulations

• Signed an Executive Order demanding that two regulations be killed for every new one creates. He beat that big and cut 16 rules and regulations for every one created, saving $8.1 billion.
• Signed 15 congressional regulatory cuts.
• Withdrew from the Obama-era Paris Climate Agreement, ending the threat of environmental regulations.
• Signed an Executive Order cutting the time for infrastructure permit approvals.
• Eliminated an Obama rule on streams that Trump felt unfairly targeted the coal industry.

Fair trade

• Made good on his campaign promise to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
• Opened up the North American Free Trade Agreement for talks to better the deal for the U.S.
• Worked to bring companies back to the U.S., and companies like Toyota, Mazda, Broadcom Limited, and Foxconn announced plans to open U.S. plants.
• Worked to promote the sale of U.S products abroad.
• Made enforcement of U.S. trade laws, especially those that involve national security, a priority.
• Ended Obama’s deal with Cuba.

Boosting U.S. energy dominance

• The Department of Interior, which has led the way in cutting regulations, opened plans to lease 77 million acres in the Gulf of Mexico for oil and gas drilling.
• Trump traveled the world to promote the sale and use of U.S. energy.
• Expanded energy infrastructure projects like the Keystone XL Pipeline snubbed by Obama.
• Ordered the Environmental Protection Agency to kill Obama’s Clean Power Plan.
• EPA is reconsidering Obama rules on methane emissions.

This section is a big win for America. We’re actually exporting oil and gas rather then importing it for the first time in decades. While coal may never come back to the levels it once enjoyed, there are plenty of other countries that don’t have any coal reserves to speak of that we can export to. The goal of Obama and Felonia von Pantsuit was to utterly crush the coal industry and Obama came close to doing it. If Felonia had won the election, the coal industry would be all but dead by now.

Protecting the U.S. homeland

• Laid out new principles for reforming immigration and announced plan to end “chain migration,” which lets one legal immigrant to bring in dozens of family members.
• Made progress to build the border wall with Mexico.
• Ended the Obama-era “catch and release” of illegal immigrants.
• Boosted the arrests of illegals inside the U.S.
• Doubled the number of counties participating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement charged with deporting illegals.
• Removed 36 percent more criminal gang members than in fiscal 2016.
• Started the end of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival program.
• Ditto for other amnesty programs like Deferred Action for Parents of Americans.
• Cracking down on some 300 sanctuary cities that defy ICE but still get federal dollars.
• Added some 100 new immigration judges.

Construction of of the “Trump Wall”, despite Ann Coulter’s screeches to the contrary, is actually underway. There are test segments under construction, the surveying of the path is essentially completed, and now we’re waiting for Congress to get off their dead asses and fund the full construction.

Illegal immigration is down significantly, and roundups of illegals is occurring. In many cases, the morons who are in the United States illegally have made a lot of noise, protesting President Trump. They then announce that they are “Undocumented Immigrants.” Shortly thereafter, ICE shows up and ships their asses back to the third world hellholes they came from.

Protecting communities

• Justice announced grants of $98 million to fund 802 new cops.
• Justice worked with Central American nations to arrest and charge 4,000 MS-13 members.
• Homeland rounded up nearly 800 MS-13 members, an 83 percent one-year increase.
• Signed three executive orders aimed at cracking down on international criminal organizations.
• Attorney General Jeff Sessions created new National Public Safety Partnership, a cooperative initiative with cities to reduce violent crimes.

One of the latest scandals to explode in the last few weeks was the Obama regime’s closing down an 8 year investigation into the criminal activities, primarily drug smuggling into the United States, by the Iranian backed terrorist group, Hezbollah. Attorney General Sessions, who, frankly, has proven to be essentially useless in cleaning up the mess left by Eric Holder, Loretta Lynch and Barack Obama at the Department of Justice, appears to have gotten the message and has started “Looking into” what happened with Project Cassandra.

Accountability

• Trump has nominated 73 federal judges and won his nomination of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court.
• Ordered ethical standards including a lobbying ban.
• Called for a comprehensive plan to reorganize the executive branch.
• Ordered an overhaul to modernize the digital government.
• Called for a full audit of the Pentagon and its spending.

The biggest win here are the judges President Trump has appointed and gotten confirmed. He’s had a couple of duds, but the ones now on the bench are a far cry from the usual back robed judicial tyrants. These men and women have actually read the Constitution and understand that it was written to limit the powers of Government, not take rights away from the individual American citizen. This, of course, has the Progressives screaming in blind rage. How dare President Trump put people on the bench who believe the Constitution means what it says! Don’t they know that the Constitution is an obsolete, outdated document that must be adjusted by progressive judges who know what’s good for the sheep people?

There are a number of other major wins, one of the biggest being the plans to rebuild the defenses of the United States after being run down to post Vietnam levels by Obama, and to some extent, George Bush.

Promoting peace through strength

• Directed the rebuilding of the military and ordered a new national strategy and nuclear posture review.
• Worked to increase defense spending.
• Empowered military leaders to “seize the initiative and win,” reducing the need for a White House sign off on every mission.
• Directed the revival of the National Space Council to develop space war strategies.
• Elevated U.S. Cyber Command into a major warfighting command.
• Withdrew from the U.N. Global Compact on Migration, which Trump saw as a threat to borders.
• Imposed a travel ban on nations that lack border and anti-terrorism security.
• Saw ISIS lose virtually all of its territory.
• Pushed for strong action against global outlaw North Korea and its development of nuclear weapons.
• Announced a new Afghanistan strategy that strengthens support for U.S. forces at war with terrorism.
• NATO increased support for the war in Afghanistan.
• Approved a new Iran strategy plan focused on neutralizing the country’s influence in the region.
• Ordered missile strikes against a Syrian airbase used in a chemical weapons attack.
• Prevented subsequent chemical attacks by announcing a plan to detect them better and warned of future strikes if they were used.
• Ordered new sanctions on the dictatorship in Venezuela.

The list continues of course. 2018 is going to be an interesting year. We have the midterm elections coming up, and the Progressive Liberal Democrats think they can retake the house and senate and shut down President Trump. The Republicans are terrified that President Trump’s ideas are actually taking hold, and that their years of promising to restore the country, which they never had any intention of keeping, are going to cost them their seats.

We’ve already seen several RINO’s announce they weren’t going to seek reelection, RINO’s such as Arizona’s Jeff Flake and Tennessee’s Bob Corker. Flake has been in the forefront of the “Never Trump!” movement since the primaries. Bob Corker was instrumental in getting Obama’s disastrous Iranian agreement through congress. Both have been shown to be frauds, and their poll numbers have all but collapsed in their home states. In all probability, they would have been crushed in their primaries.

As for the Democrats, they are the gift that keeps on giving, like herpes. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is losing her mind, literally. She may be in the early stages of dementia, but she refuses to step down. Senator Charles “UpChuck” Schumer, who has a long and sordid history of sexually assaulting TV cameras, has a minimum of 10 seats he has to defend in 2018. All of these Democrats are in states won by President Trump.

With the passage of the new tax law, and the economy reaching levels we haven’t seen in 10 years, things aren’t looking to good for the Progressives such as Pelosi and Schumer. They were counting on high unemployment, economic failure, along with the hope that Mueller would have “Gotten Trump” by now. Since the new tax law passed without the help of the Democrats, in fact, they flat out lied about the effects it would have for the average person, with all the Democrats voting against it. If the economy continues growing at 3 to 4 percent or more next year, it’s all over for the Democrats.

If, as I hope, we get a solid Republican congress in 2019, we will see the formal end of the Obama tyranny, and the restoration of America as the greatest nation on Earth. Don’t doubt for a minute that the Globalists, Progressives, Socialists, Liberal Democrats will go down quietly. It will take decades to clean up the mess they’ve been causing since the end of the Civil War. Be vigilant, be polite, and have a plan to destroy every Democrat in the room
