And every foreign dignitary is required to stay at his DC hotel, because only his kids will profit from that…

So, he’s just pulling numbers out of his ass re: 2 -for-1 on regulations.

  1. “The President-elect said he would institute a rule that requires that two regulations be eliminated for every new regulation instituted.”

That kind of arbitrary bullshit is meaningless.

  1. He also said he would instruct Department of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff to develop plans to guard against cyberattacks on infrastructure.

They already do numb nutz.

  1. Trump said his administration would also investigate abuses in visa programs “that undercut the American worker.”
    So they are going to investigate drumphs company?

  2. Finally, Trump said he would impose a five-year ban on executive officials in his administration becoming lobbyists after they leave his administration, and lifetime bans on those officials lobbying for foreign governments.

But nothing about current lobbyists joining his staff, just things he wont give a shit about once he is not in office. If it was current lobbyist one of the very few people he has picked would resign today, and a bunch of his transition staff.

Can anyone explain how this would be enforced?

Like all things Trump, ‘reality’ doesn’t matter as long as he gets a photo op & a headline out of an announcement.

Covered in the Non-Disclosure Agreement he will insist on?

That person still thinks the Presidency is like being CEO of a privately held corporation, where the CEO can issue decrees that are followed.

Unless there are actual laws passed, his executive order (presumably, this is what he’s talking about) can’t be enforced once he leaves office. The whole announcement was words-play.

Say hello to the new executive style of presidential communication.

No more pesky distracting questions from the press, this president will be accessible to everyone. You can send him a tweet anytime. Other than that, he will address the people directly either by tweeting or by a video address such as this one.

Later he may also experiment with live broadcasting of faux cabinet meetings, and screening of phoned in questions. I.e. cutting edge propaganda techniques that Putin pioneered. No doubt his reality TV chops will come in handy and make this much more compelling TV than the Russian version (because America rulz!).

Actually, in many large cooperation CEO decrees are also just given lip service. (We are 100% customer focused!).

“A rule that requires that two regulations be eliminated for every new regulation instituted.”

Unless the regulator has a 2-for-1 coupon.*

*Limit one per coupon per Cabinet member; some restrictions may apply.

“He also said he would instruct Department of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff to develop plans to guard against cyberattacks on infrastructure.”

I’m very disappointed with President Obama for not thinking of this already.

“A five-year ban on executive officials in his administration becoming lobbyists after they leave his administration.”

It will ban “lobbyists”. Those calling themselves “strategists” are good.

That’s what I thought. I was arguing with a local dumbass about Trump draining the swamp and his point was this anti-lobbyist thing. Haven’t heard back from him.

Yeah if only there were 1 or many government agency’s task with such a thing…
