Many haven’t taken Donald Trump seriously as a presidential candidate since he declared and even now, up 11 points in the polls nationally, they don’t think he will be there at the end. Last week when polls revealed Trump as the frontrunner in the race for the GOP nomination, there were plenty of angry establishment pundits aggressively criticizing his campaign in hopes of stifling Trump’s growing momentum.
That didn’t stop the business mogul who now towers over the rest of the GOP field with 24.9% of the vote. In the wake of this good news, Trump revealed his most immediate priorities as president … and they’re amazing.
According to New York Daily News, Trump announced on Monday that when he becomes president his very first agenda items will be to increase the U.S. military’s strength and get rid of President Obama’s Affordable Care Act.
“Our country is a mess and there’s so many things that we could do,” Trump said on Fox & Friends. “I want to build up the military so nobody messes with us. I would bring it (military levels) back to where it was at the height because we’re in such trouble.”
“And I would absolutely repeal and replace Obamacare,” he added. “We would make a strong border, people are pouring through. Illegal immigration is a big, big thing.”
Trump also said that his administration would be comprised of “business people, not political people.”
Would we rather have Trump who has the ability to hire quality & capable Patriots for his staff or an Obama who prefers hiring communists

Obama has alienated and neglected our American soldiers so it’s no surprise that our military has depleted in numbers and morale since he became president. It would be amazing to have a leader in the oval office who respects our military and actually wants them to be strong!
