Descending to the lowest common denominator of inhuman behavior?
Barbaric behavior?

2. Gulf states will be made to pay for a "safe zone" for Syrians in the Middle East
He wants to build a "safe zone" for Syrian refugees in Syria. But Gulf states would have to pay for it.

More of Trump's verbal diarrhoea ... Lebanon, Turkey and Jordan are bearing most of the real burden on the ground. The US and EU are assisting financially in their own interests -- prevention of mass emigration and a refugee infusion of terrorists. The Gulf States are in financial turmoil currently running in deficit budget. This will solve nothing -- the problems are made by all parties in the conflict -- all parties should bear their proportionate burden. The EU is paying disproportionately with the emigrant wave for reason of proximity, social policy and shared responsibility.

3. Pharmaceuticals companies should be afraid
Mr Trump has claimed he could save the government $300 billion by negotiating better prices with drug companies, interestingly.
He has not said exactly how.
|
He did today,
Healthcare Reform | Donald J Trump for President ,re-importation of patent drugs sold at reduced price in places like the UK and Canada. Allowing their re-importation at a markup back to their country of origin -- a brain dead idea. Drugs should be sold at their fair price in the USA and not at a higher price than negotiated export prices. This is fair trade too. Abusive trade policy allowed by the US government needs to be rescinded by law. Look at it this way -- death is a part of population control -- if you cannot pay the fair USA price of a USA product -- invent your own. This should in to way affect world-wide patent treaty -- the USA will continue to respect the treaties it is inscribed to and enforce their terms.

4. Corporate tax would be reduced to 15 per cent instead of 35 per cent
|
You mean the deficit/debt would climb faster?
Dividends are taxed twice -- they, dividends of USA domiciled and tax paying corporations, should be distributed tax-free -- this would stimulate investment in the USA, recapitalize USA business, and create new jobs.

5. No one would be "ripping off" the US
...
Absolutely agree.

Bunch of feel-good-rhetoric pandering to Trump's assembly of a downwardly mobile and an angry voting block. Free trade works. The economy of production will always find the most productive and cost effective scenario.

6. The Education Department would be cut
Insanity.
|
The educational system in the USA is Federal, State, and to a lesser extent, locally, regulated and funded. There are systemic problems with the education system of schools and universities in the USA. We, as USA citizens, are not competitive with educations and an infrastructure for a post-industrial economy. We are not prepared for the jobs and industry of the future. You cannot relive the past.
True but the rest that was published today contradicts some of Trump's earlier statements.

8. Not even a green card will help you get work in the US
|
The only real native americans ( first peoples) have red skin. If Trump were a true
nativist he would have a platform of returning the land to the American Indians and going back to Shittsville -- where we all came from to prosper in the Great American Nation.
This is xenophobic, racist and in violation of the American ideals and also the laws of this land -- starting with the US Constitution and the 14th Amendment ...

9. The Chinese had better watch out
|
Picking a fight and a trade war with nation of 1.38 Billion people -- dumb as dirt.
The Chinese are likely to say: Fuck you Trump! We are calling in the USA bond debt we own -- we want our money back.
The repayment of the US debt is guaranteed by the US Constitution and the 14th Amendment.
You cannot screw your creditors like Trump likes to do with Trump's corporate bankruptcies so there are only 2 alternatives.
- Suspend the US Constitution, the very same Constitution President Trump took an oath to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States"
- Pay-off the Chinese and increase the deficit to the point of deep recession or even a depression.

10. Build a Wall.no need to, just fine anyone who uses illegal labour so much the fine deters the crime. Like when his company uses illegal workers. Doing this will take millions off benefits, raise wages and prices. Still good in the long run.

Build a wall will be "Mr. Tangerine Man" Trump's answer to US Foreign Policy decisions and any other international dispute.
Trump can be the CEO of his fantasy and fly away in Hair Force One with his minions in the cargo hold
