Ignoring your last one which is political rhetoric...
The root of all the issues facing the US are the fed controlling the money system, which controls what (((politicians))) get into office. Restructuring the FBI is fun idea and and all, but nothing will come of it. The FBI serves the political interests the current administration and that won't suddenly be different 10 years from now.
Trump will not defy Netanyahu, nor will he do anything that hurts the fed. That means America will remain business as usual. He can try to bring manufacturing jobs back to the US, but that will be a drop in the bucket once tens of millions more Americans are out of work in 10 years with the advent of driverless cars and semis.
Soros, the Clintons, the Podestas all walk free despite all the lives they've ruined. There is no proper rule of law in this country anymore. There is no accountability of our 4th branch of government. We don't even have actual elections anymore (if we ever did, I'm not that old). Money literally buys votes and the fed controls the money, so the fed controls all. Until Trump targets any of that, it's all just fluff.

ok, and trump said during his campaign that he would audit the fed
the last president to defy the federal reserve was assassinated, trump needs to tread carefully to avoid the same fate

He also said he'd be the greatest ally to Israel they've ever had. You can't do both.
