Trump Will Focus on Policy After the Election

Trump Will Focus on Policy After the Election

https://politicalwire.com/2016/05/09/trump-will-focus-on-policy-after-the-election/

"SNIP............

A source familiar with Donald Trump’s thinking told Politico that the billionaire businessman “was reluctant to add new layers of policy experts now, feeling it would only muddy his populist message that has been hyperfocused on illegal immigration, trade and fighting Islamic extremists.”

Said the person: “He doesn’t want to waste time on policy and thinks it would make him less effective on the stump. It won’t be until after he is elected but before he’s inaugurated that he will figure out exactly what he is going to do and who he is going to try to hire.”

And MSNBC you are guiltier than anybody else. Faux News is supposed to suck up to Repugs. MSNBC has turned into the Donald Trump 24/7 Reality Show. Fed up. They let him get by with gossiping, insulting people and they never hold his effing feet to the fire about the fact he knows NOTHING. He's an idiot.

And I'm beginning to think everybody on MSNBC is an idiot too. Can't wait till Trump names Kim Kardashian his running mate. No news will ever be reported again.

I'm beginning to hate the so-called journalists more than I hate Trump.

and other RW think tanks set the policy. But we knew that already. He's not a populist and never has been.

there is policy already put out by Trump... you just need to fucking do the job, sit down and fucking read it!

Yes, excuse the language, but I have done some of the work. Now i have to finish quite a bit of it though. Not looking forward, but seriously, do young reporters these days DON'T READ?

By the way, I do need to get back to the damn book.
