I'm curious as to how you see this as "Trump doing work"?
The article surmises that Trump will somehow institute immediate changes to long standing EPA regulations governing industrial waste and water quality standards. First of all, how is that even remotely considered a positive? Maybe Trump can create 100,000 new jobs in the mining of coal by relaxing child labor laws? How, exactly, will Trump do this? Will he somehow have Super Trump powers to amend laws without going through proper legislative channels? How many more children need to be poisoned by the tainted water in Flint before it would raise true concern by republicans and Trump as it relates to environment?
Yeah, I'm really curious as to how this article relates to Trump doing anything positive for the citizens of our country?
In the past couple of weeks I've seen Trump celebrate publicly and falsely claim victory for saving 1000 jobs at Carrier when all he did was offer the big business a$7 mill tax relief that he wasn't legally able to do. It only took two days for the actual truth to come out and both corporate and union leaders said he, Trump, blatantly lied about his claims. Trump then went on through a series of tweets to publicly blame the union president for losing the jobs he falsely claimed as saved. The union president has since had to relocate his family and get security because of all the death threats he's receiving, all due strictly to the president- elect's lies. This is where we can actually measure the results of "Trump doing work" because he so gladly accepted credit for it when it was still useful to him.
Just days later it was announced in an interview with the CEO of the company in charge of building the Dakota pipeline that he bribed Trump in the form of campaign contributions to push through the remaining permits required to forego one of the oldest treatises this country has and go through Souix nation sacred ground. Ground that the U.S government doesn't even own. So confident is the CEO that Trump will break the law and the covenant of the treaty that he ignored the refusal of permits by President Obama and is continuing to build the pipeline illegally without regard for the laws of the land or the citizens inhabiting it. Another shining example of "Trump doing work"?
Then there's the threat to international relations with China and the subsequent bitch slap received from China after Trump ignored long standing US-Indo-China policy by soliciting a phone call from newly elected Tiawanese president. To make matters worse, Trump once again took to twitter to feed his ego and claimed the U.S. is selling billions in weapons to Taiwan but he "can't take a phone call". Shortly after that the Tiawanese president issued a statement saying Trump was once again lying about his involvement and the Chinese government is going to file a formal complaint in the U.N.
So these things all actually happened, except for the steel industry bringing back 10,000 jobs because of Trump, that hasn't happened. Why don't we measure his "doing work" results from the actual results of Trump's "work"?
Hope this helps,
