The First 90 Days
November 9, 2016, (E-mail I sent the morning after the election, reproduced here with minor changes)
The world has shifted its axis. A landslide victory for Trump, giving the Republican Party, which sat on the brink of total destruction, a historic rebirth. As of today, Trump has the following magic wand:
- Presidency,
- Senate,
- House,
- Supreme Court
- The Military
What will he and his minions do during the first 90 days? I guess that he will establish the basis, a structure, for the Republican Party's hold on the nation, which will last over the next four presidencies (32 years) at least:
- Seat a new Judge on the Supreme Court and all lower courts Republicans have previously blocked
- Appoint Trumpers to all Administrative positions, Cabinet Secretaries, Fed agencies, ambassadors, etc. (as any president would do, but these will be the fringe, rabid, deniers, bullies, etc.)
- Remove all Federal prohibitions on states wanting to establish voting limitations
- Establish a FEDERAL law prohibiting the establishment of any process other than the partisan process of redrawing voting districts. (No non-partisan committees, for example).
- Adopt Ann Coulter’s voting process limiting voting rights to only those having four grandparents who are US citizens.
- Strengthen Citizens United (Dark Money PACs)
- Dissolve the EPA and repeal clean air & water acts, NEPA, etc.
- Withdraw from the Paris Agreement
- Dissolve the Department of Education
- Cease all financial aid programs for colleges
- Repeal the Affordable Health Act, Social Security, Medicare
- Appoint Trump’s son/son-in-law as Attorney General or another important post, (as John Kennedy appointed his brother Robert Kennedy)
- Have the Justice Department arrest and charge Barak Obama and Hillary Clinton on bogus charges to silence and denigrate them.
- Repeal Obama’s Executive Orders
- Establish an Immigrant [not Immigration] policy to find, detain and deport any and all individuals thought to be in the US illegally
- Begin building structures/prisons within which to concentrate immigrants, or other people wishing to disrupt Trump's policies
- Introduce legislation making abortion illegal and criminalizing all who engage in the process
- Remove all regulations governing banking, Wall Street investment, hedge funds, etc.
- Rescind all trade agreements such as NAFTA, etc.
- Change the Tax code favoring the wealthy, perhaps making a “flat tax,” which hits low-income people hardest;
- Use IRS audits to satisfy personal vendettas, i.e. go after anyone who attacked Trump, i.e.: the women who accused him, journalists, etc.
- Shake hands with Assad, Putin, Kim Jon-un, etc.
- Reorganize the military to be sure only those generals who completely agree with him will follow his military commands, including the use of nuclear weapons.
- Establish his foreign policy which may remove US participation in United Nations, NATO and other treaties, use fire power to flex Trump’s muscles, etc.
- Remove any warrants issued to extradite Julian Assange.
