Not play by the D.C. Rules. Senate rules need to go bye bye like fillbuster, Cbo scoring, etc. trump should lay out some Ethics reforms for congress since they can't police themselves, like take away some pension benefits that are too gold plated. Where is the term limits bill? This is a PR battle and trump needs to lay down some markers to get congress to act.

He has to play by the rules of the constitution and balance of power.

Trump is president...not a CEO

What a bunch of garbage. And term limits would require a constitutional amendment. It wouldn't happen even if only a simple vote were required, but it definitely isn't getting over that hurdle.

This is a key move for Trump, if he wants to truly expose the corruption and shut down the "DC Brothel " he needs to move forward with term limits and lobby reform. Then watch the whole political system with the "Washington Elites" violently convulse. At that point the jigs up and the American people can watch the shite show begin.

Hmmm, pumping for the career politicians, you need to be watched at all times.
Agreedi, we need a constitutional amendment for term limits so Trump needs to start shaking that bush!

Newt needs to be Speaker of the House. Talk about fireworks; he'd put the pressure on all concerned. Smartest guy up there when it comes to legislating, given the partisan dynamics.

It's not a bunch of garbage. Those are not only valid points in the OP, but they should be obvious goals.

Ending the filibuster and CBO scoring? Tell me why those should be obvious goals. They don't seem so obvious to me.

His job right now is learning how to be POTUS and the balance of powers; not separation of the branches of government, but how to maneuver in more than one manner.
