Trump should just cancel any regulation that was made after the election took place....If Obama was smart and wanted to keep them on the books he should consult with trump before signing anything creating regulations.

Anybody think that PEOTUS should ask POTUS for restraint, thus allowing POTUS to expose himself as the stunted runt he is? Or just strike the regs as he takes his first moment of seating behind the desk in the Oval Office?

Why stop at since the election?
Erase anything not approved by congress.
Ask for s Congress critter to introduce a bill to erase anything passed by Congress.

Bill Clinton did some of this too. Here’s my question: If these regulations are such great ideas, why not do them at the beginning of your administration? The answer is, of course, if he did that, he would have had to deal with the backlash.

Section 8 housing? How and who would enforce it?

No enforcement, but an easy excuse to push someone out when the need arises. Let's say someone with a conservative bent making problems for a liberal living there, then the good-minded person is kicked out "for smoking".

Yep, you summed that up well.

He wouldn’t suffer backlash if some regs took effect and he just might have some that squeak through.

Trump mention today the 54 new regulation created that would affect Carrier issue recently. Regulations that cost money and jobs. The democrats do not care. They want control.

“Trump has a phone and some white-out.”

Don’t say “white out.” It’s racist, or code, or dog-whistle or trigger or something. Just say he has an eraser or a big shredder.

but after Trump’s surprising victory

Um, not entirely surprising, especially when you discount the media poll BS. A lot of us knew for some time he was going to win. All you had to do was compare his rallies with Hitlery's.

But no, the media had a narrative to push. Even after Trump won the primaries, they stuck with it. You see, there was a plan in place. It was a plan developed by the Establishment (on both sides) with the media in collusion. Here was the plan:

Start by getting Jeb! nominated. Everybody knew Clinton was going to run. Everybody ALSO knew that Americans wanted another Clinton like they wanted another Bush in office, but they would go with Clinton given the choice between her and Jeb! This is PRECISELY why Jeb! was promoted so much across the media board. They knew full well that, if it came down to a Clinton vs Bush ticket, Clinton would win, period.

This is also indicated in Hitlery's lack of press conferences in the beginning, and very low energy campaign. Once again, they all knew, if Jeb! was the Republican nominee, Hitlery would have a very, very easy slide into the white house. Hell, she'd hardly need to campaign at all!

When Jeb! dropped, the media and establishments did their best to support the most useless, milquetoast candidate possible. Kasich, anyone?

In the end, Trump kinda, well, "Trumped" them all, and threw a major wrench into the plans. It was at that point that the Hitlery camp started to panic. They knew the whole plan was in trouble at that very moment, and that shined through most the remaining months of the campaign. Once Trump had the momentum, it never shifted, regardless of what the media and pundits were saying.

Bottom line? It was only a surprise in the sense that it needed to be, in order to cover up the lies and media deception. See the NYT apology and promise to focus on un-biased reporting in the future for more on that!

There is still a plot afoot to halt the transition of power.

People need to understand. Communists like Obama, Soros and Clinton have never believed in democracy. A little thing like a decisive electoral defeat means nothing to them

Excellent post, the entire thing!

All you had to do was compare his rallies with Hitlery's.

The closer we got to the election the more convinced I was that Trump would win it for that very reason.

The enemedia refused to address it as well as the Clinton pundits and the last couple weeks it was evident even to them that Trump would win it but they were all in denial.

Do you honestly think, for one second, that our first Gay, Muslim president (only Trump deserves the courtesy of being called President by me)gives a tinker’s damn about anything except his express desire to “fundamentally” transform the ole US of A? This un-American POS is going to do as much damage as he can before his worthless ass is kicked out of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. If this POS goes at all. (Personally, I HOPE he tries to stay because then we have to get down to business. Sherman’s March to the Sea kind of business. Anyone to squeamish to participate, sit down, SHUT UP and get the Hell out of the way!)

People who don’t know how to create jobs, so they spend their time trying to control others to justify their existence.

Because when he sets up his pResidential library mosque he will have a (very small) section listing his accomplishments, and these will all be celebrated.
