lol...no one in their right mind (which describes the majority of his supporters) can believe that his first 100 days were anything other then a giant belly flop. The one thing he got done was put a conservative judge on the court.
Now that is worthy of a victory lap for those who think that was the single reason he got elected.
But legislative wise he has has been shut out.
His most important exec orders have been shut down by the courts.
And he failed to get Obamacare repealed.
I won't even get into his magical plan to defeat ISIS in 30 days which still hasn't begun.
This was the guy whining to the other day about how much harder being the president was then he thought.
yeah...no kidding.

While his legislative efforts are a project in work, they are in work nonetheless.
Meanwhile Trump has redirected the EPA to drop the AGW garbage and do its damn job. He has redirected NASA to drop the AGW garbage and do its damn job. He's put the deep state on notice. He may well yet pursue criminal charges against Lerner and other corrupt IRS officials. EO's you referenced as being blocked by partisan activist judges will be reinstated, depowering future judicial overreach.
On the international front, he is actually insisting our partners live up to their obligations. The fact for example that Germany has underfunded NATO for years is an obscenity. For the first time in my memory he's managed to maneuver a wedge between China and NoKo. He is pursuing fair trade agreements, and withdrawing from asinine multilateral agreements. Etc.
Calling his first 100 days a "bellyflop" is ridiculous.

Look at the last few presidents. None of them achieved their major policy initiatives within 100 days of taking office. In order to call Trump's first 100 days a belly flop, you would have to hold him to a tougher standard than anyone else.
If we don't get healthcare reform by the 2018 midterms, I'll gladly call the first two years a belly flop. But I'm willing to give him a chance to find his bearings, and I hope he does. Our country can't afford to have three straight terrible administrations.
