Few ideas me and buddy kicked around while drinking last election....

 

Reduce the overseas military and repurpose to protect border

 

A new tax that would be split 40/40/20 between political parties to fund all campaigns...thus eliminating corporate sponsored politicians (think about like 2$/3$ a person to produce 980mill to 650mill a year for campaign funds)

 

Better budget oversite to reward dept.'s that save $$$ instead of the current better spend it so we dont lose it scenarios

 

In the same vein reduce military spending...i know people get touchy on this but i have family/friends active/retired and the stories of waste are insane...buddy got promoted few years ago and within 2 weeks saved the base 5million by reorganizing a few operations and auditing the supplies

I'd probably 

Have Casual Fridays

Raise the President's salary to $2m

Ban impeachment 

Have Slick Willie be my running buddy

Add more servant staff to the White House

Ban twitter

Run Cattle on the the White House grounds

Threaten anyone talking about my side pieces

Make everyone go thru Slick Willie and let him do the Vetting before I meet with them

Rubber bullets are not only legal, but encouraged for blasting shitheads hogging the left hand lane.

 

I'll prepare my inauguration speech now...

mandatory monthly coke and hookers night, punishable by death

 

increase the geriatric death rate

everyone gets laid

increased dialogue since people tend to turn into chatty Kathy’s on booga suga

and only cool people do coke, so by default, everyone’s cool

Move Labor Day and Memorial Day to Fridays so that you can relax and have some drinks without work the next day.

On that note, Monday after Super Bowl is a holiday.

For Congress to approve of a war, their children must undergo a draft, with the probability of them getting picked equal to the ratio of servicemembers to privately employed civilians in the country. So like 1 in 15 or whatever, of their kids, would go serve in their war. If the President used exec powers, 100% of his or her kids serve.

Make jury duty mandatory, but force employers to pay full boat for the employee's leave (part time and 1099s as well). Juries shouldn't be full of people too stupid or too bored to get out of it.

I like this one quite a bit. I'd actually prefer to see it split evenly amongst all parties in the race. Probably with some sort of qualifier, that's a relatively low bar, but one that keeps riff raff and trolls out. It'd be a good way to get money out of politics and (maybe) give us more choices as voters. That would be freakin' fantastic.

Yeah the 20% would be for 3rd party at the moment...if a 3rd party got big enough you would definitely then even it up

Legalize sports gambling on the federal level.  Legalize for "Sports Bars" to offer bets just like a book in Vegas.  Use the juice as a tax and split it 50/50 between the bar and the state.  

Just like buying a scratchy lotto at the store, I should be able to sit down at a bar and say, 'Give me a Shiner in a bottle and $50 on the Cowboys plus the 4.

Passenger trains with machine gun turrets blasting their way across dusty hinterlands filled with roaming bandit tribes.

Like that great Chinese/Korean classic, "The Good, The Bad, and The Weird"

3 day work week. We piss away half of our time anyway, why not make it official?

Surly would be a ghost town half the week.  No one wants to post if they aren't on company time or billing it to a client!

I think the country should be run by a computer with every person scored by everything they do. The government has a comprehensive report on everybody that will determine how much you pay for health insurance, taxes for the roads, etc. It will be called Fairness thru Math and Logic. or FML.

In May 2018, the Supreme Court ruled in the PASPA case in favor of New Jersey, ruling that the 1992 federal ban on sports betting in most states violated their rights.[36] After the ruling, several states, including New Jersey[37] and Rhode Island,[38] prepared to legalize sports betting.[39]

I would have the Department of Justice aggressively investigate the SEC and the NCAA until both are a smoldering pile of ashes. All federal funding for Alabama would be removed and redirected to UAB where people value education. Of course aggy will receive an SMU like death penalty and lose access to all federal funds unless they agree to remove the name of Texas from their name. I would also look into the possibility of trimming off East Texas and reallocating it to the state of Louisiana or just make it a separate state called shit hole.

Stoops would be sent off to Gitmo and Kawhi Leonard would be put on a no-fly list and forced to stay in Canada.

After crushing my enemies, I will resign so that my Vice President Gregg Popovich can assume the office of POTUS.

Casinos wherever the fuck they want to be, within reason.  There is no reason we shouldn't be able to have full blown casinos in Texas.  It's dumber than fuck that we have to go to shithole towns just across the border to play some craps...and they were shithole towns BEFORE the casinos got there, so don't give me that line of horseshit either.

If there's a fucking Marriott or a major airport nearby, there's enough business critical mass to support a casino.  Next to the Gaylord or Great Wolf Lodge... put a damned gamblin house.

 

Get rid of all of the morality laws( no cloakroom, just bear with me.)    Stop fucking up commerce with bullshit laws that protect certain entities( alcohol industry, I'm looking at you!)
