RE: How can we help President Trump make America great again?

in #politics7 years ago

I'm not really sure what I or we can do, except to be hard working people, living with integrity, treating our fellow man with dignity, loving and ministering to our families and committed to do honest work.

A better question would be: what can President Trump and our Congress do? They have made some strides on loosening regulations on businesses and that is already starting to help the labor market (real wages are staarting to move up after being flat or down for a LONG time). Housing prices and building is starting to move up as well. The big thing left to do is pass Reagan-style tax reform. This led to significant economic expansion and pushed up real wages for almost all Americans. This is why he won in a landslide in 1984 and why he was one of the few (maybe the only) President in the last century to get his predecessor elected. Exceptions would be Kennedy / Johnson (but Kennedy was assassinated). Nixon / Ford (but Ford didn't last or win an election). One could argue Teddy Roosevelt got his successor elected (Taft). AND - big AND - if Bush hadn't raised taxes, he would have won in 92. Instead, he abandoned the Reagan playbook, raised taxes, Ross Perot entered the race and Bill Clinton "felt our pain" and won.
