Direct from President-Elect Donald J. Trump

DonaldTrumpGreatMonday, President-elect Donald J. Trump released an update on the Presidential Transition, an outline of some of his policy plans for the first 100 days, and his day one executive actions.

This direct communication effort, if repeated, could likely balance the historic leftist bias of major media as it reaches directly to citizens.

Evolution or slippery slope?

If that’s what you think then you are completely off.

First of all you have to look at the fact that most of the US voted for President Obama four and eight years ago, winning all the traditional Blue States, including the Rust Belt: Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin.This year, all of those states flipped for Trump. Did all of these people suddenly become racists in under a decade? No.
