On the domestic front, Mr. Trump has o been busy.
He’s signed executive orders reducing regulatory burdens within the federal bureaucracy and Obamacare, has frozen federal hiring, pulled out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, approved the Keystone XL and Dakota Access oil pipelines, outlined a plan to review the Dodd-Frank banking legislation, laid out spending plans for the Mexico border wall, strengthened White House ethics rules and temporarily suspended immigration from seven terrorist-ridden countries.
Meanwhile, Congress is using the Congressional Review Act to repeal many Obama-era regulations that undercut economic growth.
Mr. Trump has announced a campaign rally in Florida — and this is a good thing. He needs to start highlighting his accomplishments to the people who elected him, as the news media surely isn’t going to do it. Reconnecting with his base will also be good therapy for Mr. Trump, as he thrives off the crowd’s energy. Mr. Trump knows his only responsibility is to that of his voters.
The news media and Washington establishment will continue to feed off the scandals and leaks, and try to ruin Mr. Trump. This will go on for at least four more years.
And it’s OK. As Rush Limbaugh continues to say, the news media didn’t make Mr. Trump and therefore it can’t take him down. Although the road so far has been bumpy, Mr. Trump will continue to roll.
