Trump and the Republicans will go after Social Security and Medicare. If I wasn’t retired and depend on both, I’d laugh at his supporters who will lose their livelihoods…but, sadly, it will hit me just as hard.

There are experts on immigration saying that it’s simply impossible from a logistical or legal standpoint for Trump to achieve anywhere near the kind of grandiose promises he made to get elected on deportations. These aren’t problems that be handwaved away. The Supreme Court has long said that before individuals are deported, they’re entitled to a full and fair hearing. That means a hearing before an immigration judge where they can support defenses to deportation. The problem is those courts are tremendously backlogged. Congress has never really funded the courts to keep up with the volume. The first Trump administration's numbers were below those of the Obama administration when it came to deportations. Now he can have jack booted thugs run around and throw suspected "illegal immigrants" in black vans and dump them over the border, but really? I don't think so. He will need to push the envelope to try through executive orders and other regulations and things like that to strip migrants of their rights of due process. There is just zero chance he can get anywhere close to where he wants to go, unless he pushes the envelope on due process to its absolute bare minimum. We'll see how it plays out

The first Trump admin was full of infighting, conflicting egos, power struggles, scattershot policy changes, legal squabbles, general incompetence, constant turnover, and Trump’s complete inability to stay focused. There’s absolutely no reason to believe that this time he’ll surrounded himself with hyper-competent people who will be laser-focused and 100% dedicated to carrying out his every decree.

All the Trump supporters and detractors use your common sense and intelligence to predict events that will occur during Trump's second term.

I'll start

Trump's first lie will occur within 1 week of taking office. Includes him or administration representative.

Within 6 months he will attempt to implement a part of P2025. That document he disavowed and said is not part of his agenda.

Within 1 year a member of his administration will be under investigation for wrongdoing.

If any investigation of Trump hits too close to home that person will be fired.

Within 6 months he will violate federal law.

Inflation at the end of Trump's first year will be higher than it was when taking office. Currently 2%

At the end of Trump's first year the price of eggs will be close to the same.

I just want conservatives to answer a few simple questions. Can’t get straight answers here.

I have a friend who is a Trump voter who reached out to talk to me. She said her own daughter is upset with her

I will have the chance this Wed to air my feelings/questions.

Will report back with a summary
