Get rid of Obamacare The Environmental Protection Agency might disappear Build a wall along the southern border, and make Mexico pay for it.

And re schoolchildren, in case I muddled up meanings - I didn't mean Trump's supporters are like schoolchildren, I don't think that at all, I was equating the amusement factor that is being obtained from his tirades to being the same schoolchildren get. Nothing funnier than a good swearathon at times.
