Out Of Control

Trump gives his Gettysburg address. We have discussed the lobbyist situation before man times and the term-limits is long overdue in the eyes of many. Federal regulations are more out of control than Trump's hairdo. But then Washington's been out of control for a long, long time.

In terms of actual political measures that Trump would propose and/or enact, he listed the following six:
  1. "A Constitutional Amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress."
  2. "A hiring freeze on all federal employees."
  3. "A requirement that for every new federal regulation, 2 existing regulations must be eliminated."
  4. "A 5-year ban on White House and Congressional officials becoming lobbyists after they leave government."
  5. "A lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying on behalf of a foreign government."
  6. "A complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American elections."
