Here It Comes: Trump’s 100-Day Plan to ‘Make America Great Again’ - Truthdig
What now? Brace yourself.
At the end of October in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump laid out what his campaign called a “100-day plan to Make America Great Again.”
The plan (pdf) came on top of multiple promises Trump made on the campaign trail about what he would do on his “first day in office.” Taken together, these vows represent a right-wing agenda that includes:
removing “more than two million criminal illegal immigrants from the country;”
canceling “every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum, and order issued by President Obama;”
suspending immigration “from terror-prone regions where vetting cannot safely occur;”
repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act;
allowing the Keystone XL pipeline to move forward;
lifting restrictions on fossil fuel production;
selecting a Supreme Court nominee in the mold of the late Justice Antonin Scalia;
canceling “billions in payments to U.N. climate change programs;”
establishing “a requirement that for every new federal regulation, two existing regulations must be eliminated;” and
ending federal funding for sanctuary cities.
“This is life in the early days of a Trump presidency: economic
shock, international instability, and constitutional crisis as Trump
makes the presidency his plaything,” Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank wrote last week.
