With 2 years of total control guaranteed, what does a successful Trump presidency accomplish?

I'm asking for specific legislation/policies/changes.

For example, I'm in favor of a massive commitment to infrastructure projects here at home. Bridges, highways, etc.

    Define success.

    I expect a repeal of the ACA and tax relief for the 1%.

    Really looking forward to the commercialization of our national parks. Trump Resort and Lodge Yosemite Valley for only $399 a night is gonna be great!

    Infrastructure needs to include technology, too. But the roads, bridges and such need fixed too.

    ACA has to go. It's fucked and getting fuckier. Allow for health insurance coverage providers to sell across state lines.

    Path to citizenship for illegals. Otherwise LEAVE!

    Pummel ISIS into absolute submission.

    Put some fucking Wall Street crooks in jail.

    That's enough for now.

    Oh...and grab some pussy. #1 head honcho should get all the trim he wants. JFK-style.

    Ambitious 100 Day Plan

    If he gets most of that done, it would be a smashing success.

    I'm not even gonna talk about the environment, taxes, and education cause I know he he'll be a disaster on them.

    However, there are things that I think would be good.

    If he does what he says he'll do, and ends the poison that is politicians moving in and out of lobbying before after and between terms. as well as end lobbying of foreign governments, that would be fantastic.

    He claims he'll defend Social Security and medicare. we know the congressional republicans won't. so if he does, good on him. Hillary probably would've privatized like Obama wanted to do.

    He says he wants to work with Russia to defeat isis and wants to keep assad in power. if he does that, the more power to him.

    He says he's against trade deals. let's see what he can do.

    If he does those 4 things, and doesn't attack civil liberties and doesn't strip people of health care, I'll consider it an acceptable presidency.

    First line ...

    Get Scalia's seat filled with a Scalia like justice. - preferably Ted Cruz.

    Thomas has said he will retire, fill his seat with a like minded justice.

    Then it is just waiting for Ginsburg, Breyer and Kennedy to sell the couch.

    After that the court will be safe for 30 years and I couldn't give a shit.

    Repeal all of Obama's terrible executive orders

    Cut taxes across the board

    Appoint a constitutionalist supreme court judge or 3

    Neuter the EPA

    Reduce business choking federal regulation

    Reign in the IRS and fire or prosecute all involved in political targeting.

    Repeal Obummer Care.

    Allow health insurance companies to do business across state lines. Keep preexisting condition rule.

    CCW reciprocity for all 50 states

    That'll do.

    Senate margin is slim. Some of the not so conservative conservatives could be a stumbling block.
