I can’t agree more that is what Trump has promised....

Can he deliver...time will tell...

My question that nobody seems to be able to answer...

To accomplish these objectives, he is going to need Congress to do them...

Since most Trump supporter believe the fantasy, that Trump will destroy the GOPe, how is he going to do all those things listed with a GOPe that either is non- existent or his enemy...

Thie Trump supporters has lost sight of the concept of separation of powers...

The POTUS has no constitutional power over Individual congressman...

Just how is he going to work with an institution he ran against to win....?

I guess like Obama he has a phone and pen....

Ruling verses governing...

Or he will reach across the aisle to the libtards and deal with them to force the GOPe to capitulate...

He has many friends across the aisle...

My Congressman Dave Brat has been stymied by the GOPe and I’m pretty sure would welcome the opportunity to work with President Trump.

At least Donald Trump is willing to try. Ted Cruz, having gone totally GOPe, obviously won't. And with the People behind Donald Trump, anything is possible...

Yes, and with his landslide victory in November, maybe 55 or so states, he will bring in many Republican Congress critters. He will have what he needs to do what he is to do.

And remember, he wrote 'The Art of the Deal'. And he practices it.

The folks we’ve elected AS REPUBLICANS have had NO PROBLEM working with democrats and Obama... That’s been part of the problem - they’re always bowing to powerful democrats.

Why do you think they’d be any different with Trump? He’ll be powerful.

They’ll work with Trump - or all of us out here in the REAL America will replace them with conservatives who will get off their butts and work to get conservative plans accomplished.

Most of the immigration items are simply enforcing existing laws.

With a big enough mandate he can endorse Congress persons that share his veiws.

He has been opposed to the “phone and the pen” tactic. He will work with Congress to make deals.

How will he achieve this? He will go to the people and let them know what’s going on there, the people will then put pressure on Congress.

I believe he can get things done. Perhaps not all he’d like, but alot and that’s a big plus over what we have now.

Trump will go to “THE PEOPLE” just like Reagan did, right over Congress’ heads.

Where does this stuff come from? I'm a Trump supporter, and I have no idea what you're talking about.

How can Trump do what he says he’ll do?

He has the bully pulpit and he has GUTS. Keep in mind what happened to Eric Cantor who was supposed to win by 35%. Paul Ryan is being challenged right now by a substantial opponent at a time when the electorate is awakened more than at any time I can remember except for Reagan’s time.

Most importantly Trump isn’t afraid of the putrid little traitors and will publicly call them out. The second half of his first term should run pretty smoothly after the midterm elections IMO.

Remember Tom Tracredo and how he gathered 90 Republican votes in the House? And he did it with George W. Bush a pseudo conservative along with Karl Rove fighting him every step of the way. There are still good people in the House and Senate but they have been disempowered and demoralized. Trump will round them up and form a real conservative caucas. Trump will do what Ronald Reagan did he will go over the politicians heads—to their bosses the people and the politicians will do poo poo in their pants.
