The Republicans have total control right now. So we should see some legislation that improves Frank-Dodd to prevent the next financial crises right?

As far as NAI goes you believe it was simple argument in our favor. As with most things it was not. While I agree wirh our position I can see the risk in us entering into litigation with the EU. The major airlines of this nation have major stakes in Atlantic flying. Add to all this, Boeing lobbying against US. If Obama wanted to he could have let this happened a lot sooner than it did. He waited as long as he could.

If Obama was so bad for union labor, and this administration will be more favorable that is really exciting because I think Obama helped out unions more than his predecessor. How will you measure Trump's success for union airline pilots? At the end of his term we can compare what happened to what you expected. Just let us know what your expectations are.
