Well, they need to remove income tax and make social security opt-in so that the blue collar working class who voted for Trump can have money to spend on food, clothing and housing. A respirited rust belt will have the world driving usa made cars again that's for certain.

well hopefully Trump will do America a favour. Hopefully he will stop the funding the butchering of millions of babies, stop allowing those in the gw hoax lining their pockets at tax payer expense and be selective about immigration. I would also like to see water hoses turned on all the 'deplorables' who are unable to accept the will of the people. Bring back a bit of discipline for kids and you won't produce future generations like the getup crowd and the like who are quick to turn to violence and tantrums when they don''t get their own way and people disagree with them. Hopefully he will reverse Obama's /Clintons sick sexualisation programs being forced on kids by deviants. Most of all I hope a few more of our sensible pollies here in Australia grow a backbone and take Cory Bernadi's lead in speaking truth despite the howls of the sick leftist journalist who are absolutley bound by their sick failed narratives on many issue.

Increase spending and reduce taxes! A recipe for disaster that the tax and debt dodging redoubtable republican, will never share!? Donald Trump as President, will find he's trumped by congress, with a more of the same agenda?

And or a winding back of social inclusion or progress! It's not hard to borrow to build!

And not too difficult to renege on your unrepayable debt obligations, particularly, if you're too big to fail?

Mr Trump wants to negotiate new superseding trade deals?

We're up for that, particularly our current FTA that disadvantages us to the tune of around thirty billion annually? We should be smarter than that, rather than accept half assed trade deal that just "ROBS" us of our economic sovereignty, incrementally!

Just give us an excuse to tear it up, please! Given a bad deal is worse than no deal at all!

We need to become far more self reliant and more inward looking! A good start would be cracking on with CLEAN, SAFE, CHEAP NUCLEAR POWER, minus a single day of delay to, and pardon the pun, power up our own economy!

Which if intelligently utilised as the people's power, could drought proof Australia! ABSOLUTELY DOABLE!

We need future refocused vision and Leadership as never before in our relatively brief history! And given recent events abroad, that may have been successfully trumped? Or just "never ever" been? Just non core second order issues?

Is this the same Larry Kummer who opined earlier this year that Trump would be crushed in November? Clearly a man whose predictions are to be valued.

There is a meme developing around what Trump will do. Basically those who opposed him think that he is a buffoon and those who voted for him are fools who were duped and are about to be shown to have been so. Having derided his policies for so long, they can't imagine that they will now be implemented so they assume they won't be. Right-thinking people know the right policies and even though they were wrong about Trump they remain convinced of the virtue of their opinions.

It may turn out that Trump will sit on his hands, that he doesn't mean what he says and that he only ran because he thought that the White House might be a nice place to live for a few years. On the other hand, maybe he really does intend to build a wall, gut the climate agenda, provide jobs and hope to those in the fly-over states and make foreign policy subject to US interests not globalist interest. We'll see but I wouldn't count on the former.

The elites were wrong about the Trump presidential campaign .. utterly wrong. They've shown they have no understanding of America beyond their own circles. When they're shown to be wrong about the Trump presidency will they finally start to re-evaluate their own views - I'd doubted it

Gee Runner,

let' not stop at disciplining kids...as they or their parents won't be able to afford an education let's get them back into the mines because they will be very cheap for the operators; super profits to bolster the economy. We can indenture the good looking ones out to the priests for recreational pursuits.

Let's increase the population by millions (your words) of un-aborted unwanted babies to grow up in orphanages and feed the above "production" line. If the "jobson growth" doesn't work as well as expected the excess can be culled by the 2nd Amendment fans.

Seems like a win-win for Trump supporters and religious zealots back home.

I suppose with dishonest/warped narratives like yours Peter King that you are disappointed many are waking to your failed ideologies.
