What's to disagree with?
 
Where is Trumpcare?
 
Most of those are bumper stickers and it looks like someone said: "Quick! We need a platform!"

Bumper stickers pass as strategy in the GOP these days. This is basically his first term agenda. So what they're saying is he didn't do goddamn thing his first term.

His handlers probably put that crap together within an hour.

He didn't.
 

If Trump couldn't pull those off with a full GOP government, why would we believe he could do it with divided government? But more importantly, what are his plans for addressing Covid, righting the economy, and getting our kids back in school?

As to Covid, how does he do these things below next year - if he couldn't address them this year?

Develop a Vaccine by The End Of 2020

Return to Normal in 2021

Make All Critical Medicines and Supplies for Healthcare Workers in The United States

Refill Stockpiles and Prepare for Future Pandemics

As pointed out before, Trump is campaigning on the same nonsense he did the first time...which means he and his goons are admitting he basically did nothing during his first term.

LOL, you can't make this **** up.

The only thing on his list that might be doable, is: Develop a vaccine by the end of the year.

But seriously, under 'Covid':

"Return to Normal in 2021"

Wha? What the hell plan is that? :lamo

It's a noble goal. I would love to see that happen. However, certain steps would have been needed to be taken, oh, way back in April/May, and Trump screwed up.

The utter generality of it is beyond hilarious. What's next? "Sunny Days?"
 
Isn't this the exact same thing as his 2016 platform?

If he couldn't do his 2016 platform, what makes him think he could do it in 2020? What's changed?




.

10 million jobs? 20 million jobs lost, now that was something. 20 million jobs would just be back to pre-covid, Obama numbers.

Maybe he agrees that Americans should elect Biden?;)
 
That's supposed to come out three weeks ago, or something like that... so many promises so much time.

In fairness, he's only been promising this big beautiful healthcare plan for like 5 years now. The GOP has been claiming they have a "plan" since they won big in 2010...and yet still nothing.

Trump is just following what his Republican masters have been doing for ten years.

So far, their plan consists of whining, complaining, and doing everything they can to get rid of the other plan.

I remember years ago, SNL, had a skit, where the Republicans said, 'we finally have a plan for those that can't afford health care!!" With great excitement, they flipped over the presentation sheets, and on the revealed sheet it said, 'just die.' Things haven't changed much.

What do you expect from a party that literally campaigns on "government is bad"? Of course they can't govern, because that's what their platform is. The GOP is actually at their "best" when they are the party out of power, when they can complain and whine about the "Democrats", and play on their rabid bases fears.
 

As usual looks good on paper but it's the measurement that gets sticky.

"Creating" 10 million new jobs and 1 million small business could be just those that trickle back after the Covid recession. 10 months sounds optimistic too (maybe the modellers have predicted as much or maybe it's too hopeful), but either way, they're just opening the door to claiming credit for something inevitable.

Deregulation won't lead to energy independence as much as it will pollution and fossil fuel profits. But I'm sure he can sell it to the rubes under the guise of a handful of blue collar jobs.

Develop a vaccine by the end of the year? Hopefully, but it could just as well be Korea or China or Germany that does so. Either way, why wait till Christmas? I'm sure he'll claim credit by the election, whether there's a vaccine from any quarter or not. That's what this latest plasma hooplah is setting up for.

Bringing back jobs from China means incentivizing American firms. Good luck. It would be easier to create a million new jobs by investing in green energy and then claiming credit (while lambasting windmills for Karen's sake). Anyway I'll give the GOP that tip for free.

Drain the swamp? LOL, what's his new slogan gonna be, "Lock me up"?

On healthcare he's already tried to remove coverage for pre-existing conditions, now he's claiming he'll cover them all? Get your story straight Donnie. Notice he has no replacement strategy for the Obamacare he has as yet failed to repeal.

Come on this is just a repeat of his first term lies, with a few Covid specials added to keep them up to date. We all know he's just gonna golf and watch TV while undermining the constitution, rule of law and checks and balances.

Interesting thing I just picked up -if he's rejected fir a second term, he promises a vaccine by the end of his first term. So if he's not reelected, everybody can go **** themselves?
 
He already had my vote when the democrats decided to indulge all of this chaos and violence. This is just icing on the cake so far as I'm concerned.

he had your vote for second term before his first term started.
