No matter what any politician does, there always will be some who aren't happy.
Did you know at what cost will those promises will be kept? Would it be worth the chaos? Did you know American tax payers will pay for the wall? Is that worth it to you?

I am asking thinking, rational, good-hearted people who actually see what is going on.
That would be me. I don't blindly follow Trump but think that the media and left has blown things WAY out of proportion. They do it on purpose. Thinking and rational people understand what is going on and know that you can't turn the Titanic around on a dime. This is a refreshing 180 on liberal unsound policy that so many got used to as normal.

its the same urban cities & California who are Hillary worshippers. The loonies won't accept anything except their views and resort to vile acts. I live right by NYC and I see that with my own eyes.

Do you question why the list of countries banned has excluded Saudi Arabia that gave us 9/11? Pakistan where Osama was caught and killed? Or do you truly believe they just used Obama's list because, you know, they just admire him so much and follow all his instructions?

Yes, a little bit. Saudi and Pakistan should be on there too.


Do you worry cost of good will go up if the 20% tariff comes to pass?

Nope It doesn't work that way.


Do you worry what is happening to your health insurance if Obamacare is repealed?

No


Do you worry perhaps you made a mistake voting for Trump?

No But voting is a gamble. You cannot really put 100% confidence in the president.

Do you worry that he has no idea how to manage this governance thing and leaving it all to Steve Bannon and Kellyanne Conway and Kushner? Is that good enough?

No.

People can protest and also do their job. what is happening right now affects all of us. YOU will be paying for that promise of a wall out of YOUR pocket. Did you know that when you voted?
That is why i am asking rational, thinking people because they would know this by now.

Personal attack is neither rational nor good hearted.

But at least some of you must be worried?

Where are those people?

That's a lot to worry about this early. So the answer is no.

I have things I hope will happen. One is that we will involve ourselves less in the wars in the middle east, including supplying weapons. Another is that I'd prefer there was less focus on building a wall (not that I don't think boarder security should be strengthened), but I'd like to see some of the focus put on making us less of a magnet for illegal immigration, by implementing nationwide e verify and punishing employers.
