    The long version of the 100 day plan. A chunk of this can be done quickly, but much will require working with Democrat Senators or rewriting senate rules to eliminate filibuster procedures just as Democrats did when in they were in power so they could confirm left wing judges to lower court appointments.

    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 the 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 five 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.


    Seven 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 the 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.

    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 U.S. Constitution.
    ★ THIRD, cancel all federal funding to sanctuary cities.
    ★ FOURTH, begin removing the more than two 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.”


    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 two children will get a 35% tax cut. The current number of brackets will be reduced from seven to three, and tax forms will likewise be greatly simplified. The business rate will be lowered from 35%
    to 15%, and the trillions of dollars of American corporate money overseas can now be brought back at a 10% rate.

    End the Offshoring Act
    Establishes tari s to discourage companies from laying o their workers in order to relocate in other countries and ship their products back to the U.S. tax-free.

    American Energy and Infrastructure Act
    Leverages public-private partnerships, and private investments through tax incentives, to spur $1 trillion in infrastructure investment over ten years. It is revenue neutral.

    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 and brings education supervision to local communities. It expands vocational and technical education, and makes two- and four- year college more affordable.

    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.

    Affordable Childcare and Eldercare Act
    Allows Americans to deduct childcare and eldercare from their taxes, incentivizes employers to provide on-site childcare services and creates tax-free dependent care savings accounts for both young and elderly dependents, with matching contributions for low-income families.

    End Illegal Immigration Act
    Fully funds the construction of a wall on our southern border with the full understanding that the country of Mexico will be reimbursing the United States for the full cost of such wall; establishes a two-year mandatory minimum federal prison sentence for illegally re-entering the U.S. after a previous deportation, and a five year mandatory minimum federal prison sentence 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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I can understand being happy about Hillary NOT being elected, but if you're feeling celebratory about Trump in the Oval Office, then you're not thinking ... you're just not thinking.

    Any response to this election other than LIPO is retarded. Any person who does not harbor substantial concerns about what this moron might do with the power we've given him is a retard. Grow up. The end.

    I basically cherry picked that list for my list, as obviously he isn't going to get nearly all of this, but I do like most of the list.
    I'm not down with at least 1/3 of it. Protectionism and populism isn't my bag. Guess that's why I didn't vote for him. But the Supreme Court, ACA repeal/reform, national ccw, tax cut, tax code reform, and 2 repeal for every 1 passed might make it worth it.

    Of course, as always, LIPO, but your question was whether or not I liked Trump's Contract with the Voters. I stand by my answer.

    And by the way, you might want to take a hard look in a mirror before calling the guy a moron. He just orchestrated an historic presidential campaign, taking down multiple establishment candidates, including both Bush and Clinton political dynasties, and did so in spite of having virtually every possible media outlet and established political insider disparaging him and underestimating him at every turn. Oh, and there's that multi billion dollar multi national corporation thingy too.

    Based on his campaign talk and his Gettysburg plan, here's what I'd like to see.

    FIX THE FUCKING VA
    Replace ACA with something that doesn't suck.
    Limits on lobbyists/political influence peddaling
    Shit can all the bullshit Obama EO's
    Open up some stalled energy projects (Keystone)
    Tighten border security, build a wall, or both and deport ALL criminal illegals
    Infrastructure projects (early and often...been in an airport lately? Our infrastructre looks third world)
    Less ambitious tax cuts...more targeted...small cuts for businesses, small for the 1%, lots for middle class
    Shit can common core
    Conservative SCJ
    Get us out of bullshit treaties/agreeements (Iran Nuclear)

    He won't get all of that done, but if he even gets most of it I would be happy.

    good luck getting out of the iran deal. none of our allies are going to go along with it

    It's an Act, and it might be more successful that the Affordable Health Care Act
