Forget the first 100 days. It’s only been a week and Donald Trump is reinventing the presidency.Amid a torrent of action, disruption and protest, the new President’s moves on trade, immigration and foreign policy have honored his campaign promises — and dramatically reshaped Washington’s role in national and global affairs……But the determination to keep campaign promises is verging on an obsession inside the Trump White House.
Trump is "obsessing" in his determination to keep his promises?????? Sounds like promise keeping is a bad thing.
This nonsensical comment, and related rhetoric may be paving the way for CNN's demise. Here is the NY Times on this matter:
The New York Times:
Unfortunately, in the past 20 months CNN’s management has let down its viewers and its journalists by sidelining the issues and real reporting in favor of pundits, prognostication and substance-free but entertaining TV “moments.”
By branding CNN as a political party, Trump is challenging CNN's existence as a news corporation. Who turns to the DNC for the "news of the day?" No one. If Trump can successfully reframe CNN as a political entity, viewer will go down . . . . and that is the point of the Times comment.
The noose is tightening around Trump's fat neck. As soon as the link between the Trump campaign and these arrested Russian hackers is established, we're talking more than conflict of interest. It's espionage. It's coming.

He is not going to have a blanket ban Muslims. He is not going to round up and deport 20 million (or is it 11 million?) illegals. He is not going to ban abortions, just take away taxpayer funding at the Federal level, funding which is illegal. He is not going to "get rich" off HUD housing (hint: the man is already rich). There will be no arrests of Russian hackers linked to the Trump campaign. $500 bucks on each item?
