Who are the people around the President?

Saviour or Destroyer ?

Everyday we see and hear from the Trump administration that they are here to save America from the failed policy of Obama presidency. They accuses the former president having ordered wiretapping on the Trump Tower and recently accuses his officials of leaking intel. When many in the mainstream media reports denials by many former and current officials it's back to the pro Trump media people to go into overdrive and continue to bash the previous administration.

Whether this war with the past president or the mainstream media is a planned strategy to control the news cycles or to divert attention from their failed efforts to repeal and replace Obamacare remains to be seen. What is happening everyday is we continue to hear Trump to crowd the news with more accusations with no or little evidence to back up his claims. The legislative agenda becomes a minor news and Democrats filibuster to block Supreme Court nominee is being accused as hypocrite even though the GOP clearly stated they won't even consider Obama's nominee to the Supreme Court last year.

Who is the saviour or the destroyer between two very different agendas for the future generations? What is the end game for the current president? Does he plan to surprise everyone with new accusations or push his agenda to pull back the policies of previous president whom he views as socialist to make America great again in his image? Or will he wreaked havoc with the lives of many in pursuit of his agenda?

The idea of Donald

Whenever we read something that Donald Trump says don't you wonder where does he get these thoughts and ideas ? Is it from his favourite tabloid or his life long experience dealing in his business from property developer to beauty pageants to golf course and to reality TV shows? Who has he met in his 70 years as a child growing up to working under his father before taking over.

What experiences​ shape his character and make him who we see today. How much can you understand from reading his books? Does he had a typical life most business people lives or its maybe just so exceptional so different that no other has the same. Are there others​ who has similar if not identical lives ? They just have not taken the plunge into government and politics.

How does those who voted for Donald see him in comparison to their own lives ? Is it similar to what he does and says or the exact opposite that attracts these voters?

Does those who works for him really knows what he is thinking? Even his own family knows what Donald thinks? 

Next move from Donald

After that very great failure to repeal and replace Obamacare with his version of great healthcare that most including Congress budget office have said would essentially cut costs by cutting millions of Americans out of life saving healthcare Donald Trump have stumbled into the fight for tax reform that have eluded so many other presidents before him.

While he has declared again he will enact great tax reform to make America great again,  it's more likely that big business will benefit more than the average working person. The philosophy behind any tax cuts would be to encourage more private investment and consumption to increase growth and job creation across industries.How much that will work out is hard to predict consider the complexity of the current tax system.

How many of the votes can Trump get to play along his plans and who will he chooses to lead this difficult task ? Will he still rely on the GOP or change tack to woo some moderate Democrats  to back his plans.

Economy and politics

More than 5 years ago I started this blog to try writing something that I would like to share and the world has moved on since especially in politics more than in our economy.

Donald J Trump has been elected President of the USA with so much controversy that makes me wonder if he can ' Make America Great Again'. Today his attempt to repeal and replace Obamacare with his version of healthcare law is knocked into coma as he couldn't get enough votes to deliver his first legislative baby in Congress. His earlier attempts through executive orders has created more uncertain for the future.

He has stated that he will move on to   tax reform instead of trying to resuscitate his first baby shows he is aware that he could be losing momentum to spur USA out of it's Fed induced slow recovery. Unless he can get a big bang with his tax reform plans he could fall into a lame duck presidency in his first 60 days.

Much more important is whether he would abandon the economy just like he has abandoned healthcare to carve his legacy in foreign policy instead if he fails again to get the Republican controlled Congress to​approve his second major legislative plan We can see his foreign policy skills on Twitter every day. Let's pray it doesn't need to go there.

We can only wait and see from our shores far away.
