that is a pretty weak list if you ask me.


That's a surprise.
And nobody asked you. You asked him and he delivered.

He hasn't even gotten things through the house, where the republicans enjoy a strong majority.



I know. That's a problem with the House. It's actually a uniparty problem.

Maybe he should just admit that the Republicans like Ryan never had a good replacement option and work with the Dems on fixing the ACA?


We were told that the ACA was a great bill. It had to be passed before we could see it. that the criticism of the bill was due to the fog of politics. Now it needs to be fixed?

Funny thing. When it was passed, the left all called it Obama Care. now that it needs to be fixed, it is called ACA.

Has he released an infrastructure plan for them to oppose or support yet? Seems like that would have been big news, but I haven't heard of any plan being released. I know the Senate Dems sent him a letter with their ideas on an infrastructure bill, and according to them he's yet to respond to it.


I'm not sure he has released a "shovel ready" plan as of yet. Of course we all found out that "shovel ready" doesn't really mean "shovel ready", didn't we?

You know Ronald Reagan didn't have a very good first 100 days either and he still wound up as the best POTUS in the last 85 years.

Clinton didn't run on "draining the swamp" or radically changing the status quo in DC. Trump did.


I didn't think she did. She likes the swamp just the way it is.

It is a good bill. Most of the problems that need to be fixed are to do with the delayed rollout of the individual and employer mandates and the Republicans blocking any funds to cover those losses in the insurance pools.

There could be some other adjustments, but the current system is working.

Yes, I remember all those campaign promises of administrative legislation like appointing members of the board of regents for the smithsonian institution. Really delivering on promises with those.

A central platform of Hillary's campaign was fixing some of the problems with Obamacare, but I know this board doesn't deal much in facts.
