I don't represent the World, I represent America
What a great speech. Interrupted about 94 times with applause, I could see how our country is ready to work in unity and achieve greatness as he promised in his campaign.Three basic but major issues that he touched: To protect our borders instead of other countries.
To refuse to support illegal immigrants at the expense of our needy people. 40 percent of Americans live in poverty and we are losing the great Middle Class.
No more Free trade: Imagine, we get taxed so highly when we sell our products to foreign countries while we don't tax foreign trades to sell to our country.. Imagine the impact on that.
Obama's 8 years of administration has incurred more debt that all the presidents combined.
The highlight for me is: "We might be divided in policies but we are united against hate and all it's ugly forms.
Even Sanders was clapping and some Democrats.
Most important: He said and quote: " We are now going to enforce our immigration like that of Australia and Canada, you can't come and immigrate unless you can support yourself and your family."
This is exactly what we need:
You go to Korea and or Russia illegally and you will get shot, you come to America and not only will you not get free house, food and health care, but you don't need to work because we are giving you all you need.
That is plain wrong. He says and quote: " Our poverty level is 40 percent, how on earth can we afford this? No more."

We should be united in applauding his action and question what he does that doesn't work for the benefit of our people.
My opinion.
All I've seen is the rich or poor.
Lot of what Trump said was just a lot of words.
Ie, the deportation of those illegal criminals. The abolition of lobbyist, including permanent ban of foreign country to lobby in our government for whatever program.
He already mentioned all the local and foreign industries that will create billions of investments and jobs.
These are not just promises anymore, he already initiated them in the last 30 days.
Give him a chance is all I am saying.
Get involved.
Roll up your sleeves and get to work.
Don't leave everything to everyone else.
Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.
Complaining don't fix anything.
That's my 2 cents................
This is very interesting because before the OC, I, as a working citizen was covered free from my employment, with the restructure of the cost after that, it was impossible for the employer to get us covered as it used to be.
My whole family was insured with zero deductible for only $575 aq month, today you have to pay tripple for the same coverage.
If I were an intelligent American, I can only admire and support him on his goals and help enforce the action needed to make it work.
In fact he said: "ACTION IS NOT A CHOICE, BUT A NECESSITY"
That is what going to make it work.
That is the same principle involved in coming illegally. We can't keep doing this anymore and he already said, he has already deported so many and the wall is being built as we speak.
Please give me credit.
When you asked your question, about what he can do with the Obama Care, it will not be easy. We, as the people will have to vote for it again as we did when it was put in the election ballot. I voted for it, not knowing all the disadvantage it created for more people. We simply didn't get to understand the thousand and thousands of pages that were forced to us.
The Free Trade ~ I don't know how the reality will work out since U.S. are in hock to China bigtime.
Now Ireland is doing great business with China despite their human rights /animal rights record horrific !
We have always been extra kind to US companies setting up here in Ireland, they get Tax Free breaks, [think Apple ] and have only to pay a little . They get lots of perks.
Microsoft, the lot, they have grown rich on the backs of the relationship with Ireland.
It would be a shame to see that go, and would effect us too.
Ireland is now a very different place to live I don't know if other bloggers from Dublin are aware but where i live no less than 4 Mosques have been set up in past few years... huge. Where I live , it is like living in an Eastern country and these people donot want to integrate and can be rude.... sorry ! it is the truth. They skip queues in the chemist and supermarket and make no attempt to speak our language [something the Dutch insisted on ].
What I am saying is, where I live, would be considered salubrious, although I amnot rich. These people are mainly living on welfare and driving lovely cars... something is wrong. They are bowed down to and at Xmas, the crib was taken out of the hospital in Dublin because they felt 'It was upsetting the Muslims'
Whether you believe in Christianity or not, if you come to a Christian country, and take their social welfare, have a better economic life, are allowed build mosques and wear your Burqa, you don't go telling them to take down their Christian icons.
Europe is in a bad way. Lindsay, I absolutely agree with Trump on this one.... it has gone way way beyond a joke and now papers arenot reporting half of the attacks on women, the fighting in Germany and rioting.
Our senseless behaviour in Ireland has just drawn in thousands and thousands of loafers who have no intention of working.
Are you saying that I shouldn't worry of my country, the US where I've lived and a national, on 40 percent tax bracket all my 4 children were born, from 26 to 35 years?
What exactly is your point? I do still have properties in the Philippines but fixing it? Probably if I had influence yes, but for you to say before my concerns of America, you sound as though you're having a problem of me talking about my country if citizenship? Yes, I migrated here legally.
Thank you.
If you don't have anything to say with the post,b pleased don't comment anymore.
I have watched all the news how the Hungarian President is sick and tired of all the troubles caused by these Muslim people, he didn't just say, extremist but the whole of the invasion of his country with Muslims. I can uphold the video here but I don't know how to do it.
I feel your concern GG, you are not alone. There is also a document published by the Italian people who are in great opposition of the building of the Mosque and abhor vehemently their presence there.
You have said it better than anyone and I am appalled because you are voicing out a true concern of the welfare of your country. I hope you will have a solution soon if the whole of Ireland will unite and express your problems.
All we need now is unite to support him.
Thanks A.
