#1 Good. I just watched a piece on Fox where Pete Hegseth interviewed people at random on the street in Little Mogadishu in Minneapolis. Not a one of the several people spoke English. The report also mentioned that Sharia Law was being taught in the schools in the area and that the area is a hotbed for recruiting of jihadists. The report also stated that people in this area feel alienated. Why the hell wouldn't they? They don't learn our language, culture, or laws. I wonder if they have been instructed on how to vote Democrat?

#3 And this is a surprise how? He was very public about his immigration stance, and for many, that's why the voted him into office. I hope he starts with destroying H1-B, which has hurt so many friends and children of friend in the Tech sectors. Either give them green cards (or better, something similar without a citizenship path but with full rights to change employers) and let them compete freely and fairly without being effectively indentured to their sponsoring employer, or don't bring them here at all.

Same goes for illegals. Secure the border and then put in a Bracero program like was supposed to happened for temporary guest workers under Reagan.

#4 He based his whole campaign on a wall. If that wall is not completed or at lease well underway by the end of his first term he won't get a second term.

#5 The Wall will take a long time because Congress will pork it up.

Something President Trump can do quickly is chopping off at the knees those tech leftys at Google and Facebook and Twitter by cutting off their supply of cheap imported labor h-1-b.

Shutting down student visa overstays with prompt deportations would deported the 911 hijackers so do that too.

Those who dislike Mr. Trump believe he lies or negotiates about everything, and so did not believe him even as they spoke out against what he said.

#7 Why is basic logic considered far right?
Why is sanity far right?
