Let's bring in all third world poor and we can give our entire paycheck to the cause and run up our debt and bankrupt us so inflation takes over and one egg will cost a thousand dollars. Now that was the road we were on.

Trump, "the great deal maker", will roll over and give companies what they want (tax cuts, tariffs on competitors...) without any conditions or guarantees that they will create jobs. The savings will just go into profits not job creation. Tie incentives to performance ($ per net new job created).

You know, this is what a real president does. Talks to people that are in a position to make things happen, about the issues impacting their business decisions. While no government can create jobs, they can implement policies that help or hurt domestic job creation. It's a shame Oblubber couldn't take the time out of his golf schedule and parties with Hollywood performers to actually do something that might benefit the American people. Those days, now, are thankfully just a bad memory.
