Re: What would it take?
If somehow a super-villian comes to this Earth and says, "I'm going kill all your first born." and he does it, I guess I'd have to give him credit for doing what he said.
Drumpf is doing what he said he would do, my problem is the stuff he IS doing are his half-baked ideas. 1) Repeal Obamacare? Sure, HAVE A FUCKING PLAN. Regardless of the positives and negatives, this country needed some kind of system. As imperfect as it is, it was a start. He started trying to chip away at it with zero plan and people who were benefiting by it might suffer. That's bad. 2) Muslim ban. I remember when he said, "Let's stop all these Muslims from coming in until we can figure out what's going on." Something to that effect. Another half-baked idea. You want to do it? Fine. Be consistent. It's just a random smattering of countries he chose. Roll-out was a mess. I think vetting is perfectly fine, but it's like he's just throwing shit at the wall and saying, "Look! I'm doing it!" 3) The wall. I haven't seen any plans or heard a proposed budget, but this is the most ridiculous idea of them all. I'm 100% behind border security. Maybe once I hear the actual "plan" I might change my mind, but I'm looking at the proposed budget and this seems like the biggest waste of money in tax-payer history. Again, likely to be ineffective. Maybe I just have this giant concrete eye-sore in my mind and I will admit if I'm wrong (I'm obviously no engineer), but I just don't see how this would work. Jobs? I love jobs! You could give people jobs rolling the proverbial rock up the hill all day, and they could say, "Hey! We got a job though." In the end, I still think it's a waste of time, money, and more when we could be spending that budget on a lot more problems in this country. Our infrastructure is aging and is awful. If Drumpf said he would put that money into that, I'd be 100% behind him. Just because he's doing what he says doesn't mean they're good ideas in the first place.
