Oh I knew. I knew his tax plan couldn't be done at the same time as his implied and explicit spending commitments, I knew the ACA couldn't be repealed in one day or really in time for 2018 insurance without sacrificing on either pre-existing condition coverage, premiums/subsidies or coverage levels.
It seems as if a general malaise at the WH has lead to a lack of action on some key Republican issues like Obamacare. I figured if they didn't manage to do full repeal they'd at least scrap or reduce subsidies and put a dent in the effectiveness? of the EHBs, but it hasn't happened.
Also, just thinking about it, if congress doesn't agree to continue funding CHIP this year then I expect big ACA rises in 2019 as many infants are suddenly put on to their parents policies.

Trump has been compromised. Healthcare, tax reform, SC nominee, immigration and foreign policy are why I voted for him.
So far he has failed at all but one and has somewhat done some things in regards to immigration.
The important policies like tax reform, healthcare, and military intervention have the most powerful lobbies.
Apparently he can be bought.

If you believed anything he said during the campaign then you are an idiot. The guy is a habitual liar and all of his promises were so over the top. Do you think he will rebuild Chicago and Detroit, make us all rich, and build a big, beautiful wall?

If he's scrapping it in favor of the FAIR Tax, I will dance naked in the street in joy.

Seriously how the frick did he drop healthcare? That's on the speaker that fricked that up.

The first step to rational thought is to stop looking for a candidate that is a silver bullet. Pick the issues that mean something to you, vote accordingly, hope they don't frick up the rest

But djt did knock a Syrian airport out of commission for a WHOPPING 24 hours after warning the enemy that he was going to bomb that same airport.

See this is the problem with government and retarded voters. If he gets one thing right you guys are happy and completely disregard all the other terrible decisions that harm society and it's citizens. Its like being in a burning building while painting a blue wall. The building is burnt to the ground but hey you finished painting the wall before it burned so there's that. This is why hacks like Graham, Pelosi, Reid, McCain, etc stay in office for 20+ years and don't do shite.

That's just one promise. So far, Trump bigly dropped the ball with Healthcare and has gone back on his America first foreign policy. A shitty tax plan that doesn't benefit the middle and upper middle class would be a massive blow to his re-election chances.
Trump has fulfilled or tried to fulfill just about all of his promises
the SCOTUS seat was the biggest deal
we don't know what will happen with taxes yet & Trump pushed for a repeal/replace ACA bill - congress failed on this, not Trump
plus, it was a bad bill, we will get something better out of the Senate I think, but Trump does not deserve blame on healthcare - not at this point
