The Trump administration has cut spending for social programs and benefits, cut environmental regulations, cut financial safety regulations, cut health care support, cut education support, cut civil rights protections, cut national forest and parks funding, disaster funding, food safety regulations and funding, cut air and water pollution regulations..... but he has increased the political and social power of conservative religion to increase population and institute religious controls.

What is his vision? What is it he wants to US to look like? With the exception of killing all cats because they were the familiars of witches this looks like a recipe for returning to the Dark Ages of Europe.
 
Trump wants to be a dictator. That's the "vision."

He doesn't care what it "looks like." He doesn't give a shit if the entire nation catches on fire. He's a narcissist. All he cares about is staying in power, so that people keep paying attention to him.

Only Lord Donald knows.

It is not for the serfs to say.
 
Trump's biggest motivator is getting the attention he never got as a child. He learned he could get attention by being an asshole. That lesson has stuck with him. He is addicted to attention. He must have it, have more of it, and he can never have too much.

Unfortunately, since Donald is addicted to getting attention, attention is actually the worst thing for him. All it does is encourage more asshole behavior to get more attention.

The best thing America could do would be to learn this and shun him.

He would positively melt down and go bonkers, but he's already a raving lunatic, so it wouldn't be a long distance trip for him. He's on the precipice of bonkers valley just waiting for a little puff of wind.

We must stop encouraging him. It's only going to get worse until he implodes into a blob of orange goo.

He wants America to be run by oligarchs with him sitting on the iron throne.

Rich people get richer, poor people die.
 
Trump’s ‘vision’?

He gets richer.
 
I think he sees the presidency as a season of The Apprentice. He just sits there and gets to judge how everyone does- both domestically and internationally, and then gets to fire them at the end in dramatic fashion. And most of the people are light skin-toned. I don’t think he came into it with any grander vision than that.

This is just a rumor floating around, and I can't really confirm it, but I think that the administration's vision for the U.S. is

Make America Great Again.
 
Matters are getting worse, and those Americans who chose this government are silent or in denial.

Except for the 24th, the DOW has been in negative territory every day of this past week.

Trump has no idea what he is doing. As a consequence, the global economy is shattered, and the stock market is plunging. Millions of Americans have lost a lot of money this week.

All the markets are down today. The DOW lost 542 points.

Trump on Friday ordered the firing of the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, hours after a stunning government report showed that hiring had slowed down significantly over the past three months.

Trump wants to erase history. The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History removed a board that referenced President Donald Trump’s two impeachments from an exhibit on the American presidency.

Nearly a week ago Trump's lawyer, now serving as the DOJ's deputy A.G.. interviewed Ghislaine Maxwell. Trump's DOJ is keeping the interview from the American people.

Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's co-conspirator and confidant, was serving a 20-year prison sentence in Florida for her role in recruiting and trafficking minors for sex, was being held at a prison in Tallahassee, Florida, that housed men and women. On orders from Trump's DOJ, Maxwell was moved to a minimum-security camp for women in Texas on Friday.

Trump's DOJ has given no explanation for the unusual transfer.

Trump acted on impulse, and he made a very serious mistake.

He proved to the world that--when it comes to the global economy -- the United States can no longer be trusted. The President informed the world that economic statistics were manipulated for political reasons.

Not very bright!

So when is it you think America was great?

I never said (or implied) that it was great. I think that is the administration's "vision".
 
Any idea when it was this administration thinks America was great?
I think before 1988.

This was when Trump publicly announced that he might consider running for president ". . . if it [the country] ever got so bad".

He added "I think I'd win."

This was in 1988.

He's off to a pretty shitty start.
 
Can you make a toilet from iron?
I’m sorry gold is the only allowed material. Must be super high flow for all the MacDonalds and occasional document dump.

Who could argue with this brilliant analysis?

You can't. It's logical, and rational, based on available information, and critical thinking.

There's a lot of angst with logic and reason and critical thinking on this forum. So many people pretending to know about things that they don't, and then pretending that their own asinine comments somehow disparage intelligent and insightful ideas.

This phenomenon is known as the Dunning-Kruger Effect.

You are friggin' hilarious! Does this work IRL?
 
I doubt he knows much anymore. Less everyday
He'll never admit that. He always knows better than everybody. Including experts. Somebody spends their whole life learning about something but Donald automatically knows more than they do. Yeah right.
