Dropping TPP, cracking down on H1B visa abuse, parts of his tax plan, fighting human trafficking, being more stringent on who's allowed into the country (though I don't agree with his chosen list of countries he had his eye on, Saudi Arabia should've been included).

It's amusing to see that some of you believed that Trump let alone anyone else running for office would keep their promises. And yet you keep voting for these people.


I don't get it.

Bernie, Johnson, etc. We've given the two parties enough time & all they do is let everyone down. Right/Left they have proven to be the same parties it's time to end that. At least we can say we tried at that point.

The only people who love Trump are those people who voted for him (aka Amerians who hate Muslims, Hispanics and black people more than they love America) and Vladimir Putin. The rest of the world understand that Trump is an arrogant idiot and are in disbelief that the US has fallen so far from grace with that orange devil in the White House.

Neil Gorsuch. No TPP. No Paris Accord. Requiring agency heads get a handle on duplicative programs and excessive spending. Just to name a few.

Oh and just by rhetoric alone reducing the amount of illegals trying to cross the border.

Pulling out of the Trans Pacific Partnership,
Undecided about the missile against the Syrian government forces that (it's said) took out a lot of Assad's chemical weapons

Opposes practically everything else.

Any good Trump did is more than offset by his intangible acts and expressions*, ultimately far more important than achieving concrete results as president. This means his overall tone, attitude, and lack of empathy toward people he opposes for whatever reason. Societies are safe, stable and prosperous only to the extent that the people part of it can trust each other not to hurt, harm, or degrade others. By taking this tone, he gives a false legitimacy to every office and schoolyard bully in the US, if not the planet; which can only lead to further future trouble that would not exist were he not president. I'd've gladly endured four years of Neoliberal corporate corruption to prevent the actual outcome.

*Actually, I see speech and gesturing as acts. I only separate the two here for the sake of preventing an off-topic tangent.

How do you explain the Muslims, Hispanics and Black people who voted for Trump?
Maybe you can't speak for everyone and know what's in their heart

The same way that many poor/low income whites voted for Trumps. There will ALWAYS be people who will vote against their own best interest.
