As a complete and utter outsider the last US Presidential Election was astonishing as far as the rest of the world goes. Your election process seems to us to be overly prolonged and in this instance from the long list of candidates your two-party system threw up the two candidates that were both loathed.
Now having said that and as one person who believed that Trump's run for President was a joke that was intended to fail, I cannot help but agree with Akenaton that his election was a rebellion by the American voter.
On what Trump has said most consistently during the campaign and during the election we have this:
It is time to drain the swamp in Washington, D.C.
That is why I am proposing a package of ethics reforms to make our government honest once again.
First: I am going to institute a 5-year ban on all executive branch officials lobbying the government after they leave government service.
Second: I am going to ask Congress to institute its own 5-year ban on lobbying by former members of Congress and their staffs.
Third: I am going to expand the definition of lobbyist so we close all the loopholes that former government officials use by labelling themselves consultants and advisors when we all know they are lobbyists.
Fourth: I am going to issue a lifetime ban against senior executive branch officials lobbying on behalf of a foreign government.
Fifth: I am going to ask Congress to pass a campaign finance reform that prevents registered foreign lobbyists from raising money in American elections.
