President Donald Trump

This thread is to talk about the things President Donald Trump will need to accomplish to make America great again after he is sworn in. What are the perceived challenges he will face, what should he focus on first and what should be changed to correct the massive damage an 8 year Obama presidency has caused to this nation of ours. Can he do it, what do you feel his motivation is?

Can he take us out of debt regardless of political party?
 
Take note that during the AG interview today Sessions said he would remove himself from the investigations related to Hillary. Thats investigations with an s. As in still open and multiple.
Someone is deservedly going to jail.

Russia had compiled information potentially harmful to both political parties, but only released information damaging to Hillary Clinton and Democrats, in order to help the Trump campaign.

There was a continuing exchange of information during the campaign between Trump surrogates and intermediaries for the Russian government.

Russian operatives claim to have compromising personal and financial information about Mr. Trump, multiple US officials with direct knowledge of the briefings have stated.

All kinds of questions. Did the Trump campaign conspire with the Russian government? What did the President know and when did he know it? What is the nature of the information that the Russian government knows about Trump and when will use it?
 
Trump's Nuclear Plan: It's Funny Because Nothing Matters Anymore

It's political from the beginning till about 8:30, but the nuclear talk starts around the 7:00 mark. While Colbert is trying to bring a bit a humor to this, the sad truth is that this is happening. We are fucked.

 
After the news conference today one thing is clear. For whatever his shortcomings are, Trump is more of a leader than Obama ever proved to be even before he's sworn in.
Hate him for whatever reasons you can conjure, America is only going to benefit under his leadership. That is my prediction.
 
Wow. Just WOW.

I am very concerned for your mental health.

Doubtful. Obama increased the deficit by more than any other President in history combined. I'd like to think So, but I don't think it's rational to expect it.

Keep federal records of those who have been charged with abuse of an animal as a precursor to possible violence to humans later on. If someone is charged with violence against a person and has history of abuse of an animal, have the precedence be a harsher sentence.

I did not read everything you wrote, just this. You can't base laws on events you can't prove. People do shitty things in relationships I wish were illegal, but you simply can't place laws on these things.

We live in a global community.

Move to Sweden... until Sharia law, or US style law takes hold, then find another place you like.

The imposition of the laws you like only happens easily when a country is too rich, or too poor for the citizens to care enough to object.

I don't know what's worse judging people for what they have done or judging people for who they are? That's what I thought as I voted on the ballot. Its hard to weigh big money on both sides.
