The news media can't keep up.

The MSM is used to BHO's optempo, and chewing on the same story for a week of commentary and analysis.

The Trump Train is covering more ground than the MSM is accustomed to. The MSM is overwhelmed at this point.

And, the MSM doesn't know what to do when the facts are being presented to the world via Twitter straight from the source. Makes it harder to spin if the facts are out first.

I have to say, waking up and checking the news is exciting again. Love the 4 hour time change from the east coast.

Donald Trump has vowed to restore US manufacturing. The US now leads the world in advanced manufacturing and factory automation; it has shed jobs in the unskilled categories (assembly and repetitive tasks). This begs the question of why Donald Trump products are made overseas (neck ties in Hong Kong, shirts and suits in Bangladesh, souvenirs in China, etc.). During the 2012 campaign, Trump was asked about this and he said that Americans won't work for $6 a day. So, what's changed?

Even in his building projects, he's opted for cheaper Chinese steel - see: http://www.newsweek.com/how-donald-trump-ditched-us-steel-workers-china-505717

The only way that unskilled manufacturing jobs can return to the US is to raise prices enough to cover the higher US wage spectrum; I doubt if consumers will appreciate this.

Told my wifey last night: it's like he's playing a shell game with the media and everytime that they get close to finding the nut he moves the shells.
Like stated above, he throws something out there that they go berserk over and all the while he's signing this and that either in to law or out of law.

Yup, losers hate winners. Always will. What Trump is good at is moving the so-called "Overton Window." In fact, he is brilliant at it.
