Maybe you don't understand what happened today. They are just announcements, no doubt. But AFAIK, we have never seen anything like this, certainly not in our lifetimes. We got the proposal and commitment to roll back the most fiscally irresponsible entitlement program in the history, probably, of the world. Impressive. But he was just getting started. He announced major budget cuts to multiple agencies. Including the State Dept where he has proposed a 50% cut in UN contributions (Thank GOD). He signed an Executive Order, which has the effect of law: “Today we’re beginning the process of a long-overdue reorganizing of our federal departments and agencies,” Trump said. “We’ve assembled one of the greatest cabinets in history and — I believe that so strongly — and we want to empower them to make their agencies as lean and effective as possible, and they know how to to it.” “Today there is duplication and redundancy everywhere,” Trump continued. “Billions and billions of dollars are being wasted on activities that are not delivering results for hardworking American taxpayers, and not even coming close.” This will be known as "Trump's Miracle Year."
