“completely eradicate Islamic terrorism”
Comment:
Really? Yes, I do think it is possible. Do I have a plan? No, but I
don't think Trump can come up with a viable plan to make it happen,
either. A viable plan would entail convincing many other countries to
commit, and actually supply, a lot of money and resources, as well as
soldiers. Can Trump do that? Highly doubtful. My opinion? I don't
think he will even be able to convince the U.S. Congress to commit
the money, soldiers and other resources required, much less other
countries.
I
also question why he singled out Islamic terrorism instead of all
terrorism.

Comment:
No room for prejudice? This from the man that promises to eradicate
Islamic terrorism with the implication that he will not bother with
other terrorism? And what about all those Mexican rapists? And I
don't even remember all the things he said about women! Contradicting
himself? Yes.

“The wealth of our middle class has been ripped from their homes
and then redistributed all across the world.”
Comment:
If this were true there wouldn't be so many people in third world
countries that are starving and don't even have clean water. How much
of that wealth would they say they have received?
The
wealth of the middle class? The middle class have never been wealthy,
that's why they are middle class, they are between the wealthy and
the poor – in the middle. Something our current President doesn't
seem to understand. Maybe because he's always been wealthy, even
though he has filed bankruptcy at least three times and is in debt to
the tune of billions (fifteen billion, I think).
So
where has the middle class's money gone? To the rich! Making them
richer and us poorer. High prices, low pay, high taxes, while the
rich individuals and corporations get their taxes lowered and have
all those loopholes to use to evade taxes, sometimes eliminate them.
Let's not forget the exorbitant pay and bonuses of a lot of high
level executives.

“build new roads, bridges and airports.”
Comment:
A
lofty promise. A good thing, if he can make it happen. But what about
the current infrastructure? Is he going to fix the roads, bridges and
airports that need it? Is he going to come up with an affordable
maintenance plan to prevent future damage?
