OK by the numbers:
1. Goldman Sachs:
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewi...ent-trump-gary-cohn-national-economic-council
"In Trump’s closing advertisement before Election Day, a two-minute spectacular focused on blood-sucking elites, Cohn’s only senior at Goldman, CEO Lloyd Blankfein, flashed on screen while Trump said: “It’s a global power structure that is responsible for the economic decisions that have robbed our working class, stripped our country of its wealth, and put that money into the pockets of a handful of large corporations and political entities.”
And now Trump appoints Gary Cohn as the lead dog in the Trump White House's National Economic Council.
"Trump's connections to the bank did not run very deep before he picked its current and former employees to work for him. William D. Cohan, author of the book "Money and Power: How Goldman Sachs Came to Rule the World," told WNYC's Richard Hake Tuesday that Trump's ties to the investment bank as a real estate developer and reality show star were "non-existent, period."
“Goldman used to use Donald Trump as the poster child for the kind of client they did not want the firm to do business with," he said."
Simply put since Goldman Sachs represents about 24% of the DOW, it makes perfect sense to have someone from the firm in an advisory position on the economy.
2. Drain the Swamp. Here you are trying to sell fake news. Trump did not back away from this position or use of the phrase.
3. Obamacare.
Obamacare will be repealed and replaced. Nothing has changed. Keeping some parts of Obamacare in place such as pre-existing conditions to be accepted and other parts may also be retained as well. I hope the new plan will keep some of the best parts of Obamacare and remove others.
4.Deport 'em all
First we have to secure the border. It's too early to tell when the deportation effort will start as first we must secure the border.
5.Lock her up.
This is not the job of the President. This now falls to the DOJ and Jeff Sessions who is a Trump appointee. Wait and see what happens. Trump cannot lead the effort beyond the campaign trail as it would be seen as one branch of government running another. Jeff Sessions will be in charge of any investigations or criminal proceedings to take place regarding Hillary, not Trump.
6. The Wall
Once again you're falling for fake news. There will be a wall built along the border.
7.Muslim ban, will likely be reworded a bit to a ban of individuals from certain Countries that are temporarily suspended from immigrating into the US. A bit early to tell at this point what will be done.
8.Electoral college. Yes back when Gore won the popular vote and Bush took FL, Trump said he would like to see a popular vote without the Electoral college. After the Electoral college saved his butt in 2016, he saw the benefit of it and changed his tune a bit. Agreed. However, he also said that if the election was based on the popular vote he would have campaigned that way, but it's not so he didn't.
9. Election fraud. Trump still maintains that position. Although his complaints about the recounts were more playing with the Liberal media than anything else. And also ribbing those who pre-election were so offended at Trump for suggesting he would ask for a recount if it was close....Hillary is in that group.
If you mean the Russian's threw the election for Hillary, no he doesn't believe that as evidence has not been presented to show it.
10. H-1B visas, too early to tell where he'll go with those.
11.Minimum wage - Trump has a changing opinion of what would be best for the workers and employers. It's a bit early to tell where the minimum wage issue will end up. I think it will end up as a state's issue as there are differing living expenses in different states and it would not work to have the exact same Federal minimum wage amount for every state. We'll see what happens though as he takes office.
12. Secret plan to defeat ISIS, I don't think it's much of a secret. He kept saying "We're gonna knock the hell out of ISIS" Mad Dog is a good start.
13.Increase tax on wealthy,
A bit early to see how Trump's tax plan will work. Massive cuts on business tax are assured. Lower taxes for the middle and lower taxes are likely. Likely the top 1% will see a decrease but I'm willing to wait and see what eventually comes of it. As long as "everyone pays their fair share" I will agree Trump has kept his promise.
