USA Policy positions of Donald Trump; let's see how many he achieves

[Satan]

Did he say the day after he was elected he would end the Russian invasion or is that the day after he gets into the White House?

Day after he was elected , there is video of it

I don’t think Ivanka gets the gig. I have a feeling a lot of her values are actually in contrast to Trump and the rest of the GOO wouldn’t want her near the top.

I could be wrong but she’s always given off a certain level of reasonableness in public but that might just be for show.

Ivanka and Jared have been noticably absent. Suspect they've made their money on the first term, and are happy to stay well away from Donald now.

Deporting a million people is 684 people per day, every day for 4 years.

One way around this would be to have more people at the border and quick way of tossing them back to Mexico.

I don't think they're going to be sending 4 plane loads of people every day from all over the USA.

Stopping immigration was just the pretend policy to alleviate cost of living pressures.

But they didn't do it in their last 4 years and they won't do it this 4 years. They will do what they always do.

Cut corporate tax rates
Reduce Social Services
Drill more oil
Spend more on war.


Ukraine is the interesting one for me. Any US president in history would be doing what the weapons manufacturers want and providing all the arms. But Trump has a personal interest in pleasing Putin. So maybe the deal is that Putin gives peace but the US re-arms Ukraine totally afterwards? Ukraine won't surrender though, so it's probably not realistic. Trump will go with personal benefit and stop the supply to Ukraine and please the weapons people with more supply to Israel and Saudi and start a war with Iran.

Depends IMO on the arms manufacturers that back/fund the Republican party, how much they can cosy up to Trump, what they can indirectly get him to profit from. They might even just up and directly bribe him for his favour.

He might like Putin, but loyalty ahead of his own profit? I doubt that very, very much.

This would be an interesting thing to do for all politicians. Progress made vs promises made would like WILDLY different at the end of any term...

If only accountability existed!? They don't care, they move into a nice consulting role with a company they approved things for while in office and get a nice pension no matter how shit they are...

Not expecting in 4 years time the list of achievements here is all that long. My guess is

Middle east behave themselves a little better
Day to day lives of every day people largely unchanged (for better or worse)
WW3 fears proven wrong
Nothing major done but no major 'fails' either. Sadly, about all any politician aims for and all we can expect from them...

The shock return of Ivanka – and which jobs Don Jr and granddaughter Kai might have under Trump

Between five children from three marriages, their partners and their 10 children, the 78-year-old has a dynasty worthy of any Tudor court, with just as much infighting, intrigue and ambition.

My theory is they were distancing in case he lost. But they're the only electable ones in the family and Trump only trusts family enough to pass the mantle. And think of how much he'll love the optics of a Trump dynasty. Another Trump Presidency after his will shore up his legacy which is mostly what he cares about.

It's not going to be Don Jr or Eric.

I wonder what odds I can get on Ivanka to win the next election. (It's not available on TAB.....)

Yes, the bidding war starts now. If Eric joins the board of a weapons manufacturer, we'll know who's bidding. If Trump Org gets some strange loan approval from a European bank, that'll be Putin's bid.
