Trump's pledge to help workers faces hurdles

Trump's pledge to help workers faces hurdles: Distinctly Catholic: His own past business practices, his administration appointments and policies so far, and divisions within the GOP don't bode well for American workers.

MGB: Trump's H-1B order directs the government to study how the H-1B law should be amended. He cannot change it by order. He is all hat, not cattle. This was a publicity stunt, although apparently he and his staff do not understand that. He essentially signed a memo with people watching. It is no shock that as a capitalist and as president he is quietly doing the opposite of what he proclaims. Interestingly, the Goldman appointees are probably his most qualified - certainly more so than the conservative ideologues whose disdain for workers is palpable. These stunts are a smoke screen so voters don't notice that Trump does not care for them or does not think they are smart enough to notice (especially on tax policy, which some say is on hold for now anyway). Have we already had an infrastructure publicity stunt? Did it say anything about gas taxes (which have room to grow with lower prices). On school choice, the Trinity Lutheran case will give him an undeserved win, not DeVos.
