Great news. If all trump does is attack regulations, enforce immigration laws, and adds conservative justices then he is a success.

Quote:GREAT TRUMP: Promised To Cut Two Regulations For Every New One. He's CRUSHING That.

Over first 6 months, the Trump administration has cut 16 old regulations for every new one added.

Donald Trump is far outpacing his promise to cut two regulations for every new one implemented. In fact, to the delight of fiscal conservatives across the country, he's running circles around it to the tune of 16 regulations eliminated for each new one proposed.

The 16-to-1 ratio comes via numbers presented in a report this week from the Office of Management and Budget that shows the administration is holding true to its vow to be business-friendly, as opposed to the Obama administration which churned out regulations at a jaw-dropping pace. In Obama's final year in office, the Federal Register, which lists the proposed and final regulations of federal agencies, set the record for the highest page-count ever: 81,640 pages.

As Reuters explains, the report issued by the White House Thursday shows that the administration has withdrawn or made inactive a total of 800 proposed regulations that were carry-overs from the Obama administration. The administration has also identified "nearly 300 regulations related to energy production and environmental protection it plans to rescind, review or delay across three agencies — the Environmental Protection Agency and the Interior and Energy Departments."

The Washington Examiner's Paul Bedard provides some highlights from the OMB's numbers that demonstrate the dramatic difference between the two administrations, including Trump "eliminating 16 old rules for every new one" and reducing, rather than greatly adding to, annual costs for businesses:

-In the last five months of fiscal year 2016, the Obama administration imposed $6.8 billion in annualized costs from economically significant rules. By contrast, the Trump administration has imposed less than $0 in regulatory costs during its first five months.

-Comparing Obama's first five months in office to Trump's, Obama imposed $3.1 billion in costs. Trump has cut regulations, realizing an annualized cost saving of $22 million.

-The administration is "ahead of schedule" on the 2-for-1 regulatory cut, banking 16 regulatory actions, including 12 cut by Congress.

The new administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Neomi Rao, made clear in a briefing with reporters this week that the new administration is just getting cranked up.

"It's really the beginning of a kind of fundamental regulatory reform and a reorientation of where we're going with regulation," said Rao. "It's a beginning ... you're going to see a rollback of regulations."

Rao said that the real total of regulations that have been withdrawn or made inactive is around 860, with plans to cut by half those regulations that impact the economy by $100 million or more and reduce all others by 40%.

Meh doesnt matter. Most of these regulations he takes away will just be back in a few short years once he is voted out and someone more competent is voted in. Which really isnt saying a whole lot.

Ssssswwweeeeeettt.

I have been wanting a less fuel efficient vehicle, more pollution in my air and water, more predatory lenders, and wall street regulations back to the good ole 2008 style.

[GMDino]

I'd be interested in a list of the ones actually cut versus the number of times he signed a pretty piece of paper authorizing someone to look into cutting it.

Those issues do not require federal regulations. Can do those by state

Disagree. The federal gov should set rules to ensure sustainable ocean fishing. I am unware of how state borders look extended out into the ocean. The ocean doesnt belong to any particular state.

Those were just me nitpicking. Im sure in that 800 plus regs removed there is something i would agree with.

Some people don't care about the health of the oceans even though they are the lifeblood of the earth. They say they care about family, but only so much as it pertains to their life, not to the livelihood of generations to come. Either that or they are severely under educated and latch on to talking points even though they go against their own self interests. Probably a combination of the two.

States are more than capable to regulate fishing and pollution in their waters. I would rather florida people deciding what happens or doesn't happen to our waters since it's so vital to our tourism.

I do not believe the environment is in any trouble . For every positive thing we do china does 1000 horrible things .

I'm still waiting for someone to provide me any evidence that the regulations in place had a net negative outcome and how removing them will result in a net positive. I'm looking for evidence, not bullshit talking point propaganda.

I'm still waiting for a list of regulations that have ACTUALLY been repealed.

Secondarily I wonder why the Trump administration, given their dislike of regulations, installed ANY new ones.

Burdening citizens with unnecessary regs is a negative. If it costs more and takes longer to do something then it's a negative.

Plus they are just regulating over regulations to fix problems that have been Caused by regulation.

I've always wanted to know what it was like to live in a Third World country, but was too afraid to move to one. But now with Trump in office, he has brought a Third World government to us! We even have a Leninist Conservatism! God bless him!!

None of that answers a single question posed.  It's opinion based on personal bias.

It's not even Trump-speak worth.

Feel free to dig into the regulation database and report back what you find. I don't have the time.

The Trump admin put out a release that was copied here as 100% true yet had none of the regulations listed at all.

It's not up to me to prove that it was true when if it was it would have been posted in the first place.

Have you gone to that site? Click on the inactive regs, none of that is easy to follow. Kinda tough to put that into a press release.
