If Mitt Romney is to be believed, his first day as president would be pretty busy. But are his plans realistic?
Romney has made a handful of promises about what he would do on day one of his presidency. He's promised to approve the Keystone pipeline that President Obama stopped, cut taxes and change the tax code, begin the process to end Obama's health care law, lower the deficit, tell China to trade fairly, and remove regulations he says hamper job growth.
But some questions remain — like, how feasible is it that Romney would be able to get everything he wants passed by Congress? Would the Tea Party stand up for its causes early on, and would Democrats work with him? And what can Romney actually do to create jobs, as he's promised?
Beyond that, Romney would still probably face a high unemployment rate, and, like Obama, would have to fight parts of his own party no matter what path he chooses to spur the economy. Fresh off a primary in which he made promises to the far right on cutting spending, ending Obamacare and erasing taxes, the practical path for Romney the Job Creator isn't crystal clear.
And still reeling slightly from a primary in which all of their ad hoc heroes fell by either their own doing or a barrage of super PAC ads, right-wing Republicans are hoping that Romney stands by the promises he made to win their votes.
We owe China a shitload of money. There's no way any president is going to telll them how to conduct their business.

meh.
You are just used to having a POTUS that bows down.
with Progressives, Liberals and other Democrats departing in droves
The one thing Romeny will do is nothing. Nothing to further destroy the country. Will that be enough to entice our most productive people back to the US? Will it be enough to convince companies that we are again a safe place to do business? We'll have to see.

Even if he lands with a majority in both the House and Senate - if said majority is split between traditional Republicans and Tea Party R's, he's going to have an uphill battle.

So NOW ABC News questions the promises of a presidential candidate?
Where was ABC News when Obama promised to change the way things are done in Washington? Why didnt ABC news question why he thinks he would be able to do something that many of us knew was impossible?
Where was ABC News when Obama promised to break through the partisan wall of politics? Why didnt ABC news question why he thought he would be able to do something that many of us knew was impossible?

Thats true. Anyone who thinks otherwise is either illegally stupid or politically inept.

Thats true. Anyone who thinks otherwise is either illegally stupid or politically inept.
One who borrows lots of money and makes payments on time has a lot more control over the lender than you realize.
Thus why many big time borrowers, such as Trump, control the banks like pupetteers.
