trump has been magnificent thus far. He's accomplished everything he promised


Ummm.....I think he has a few days left in his term.



Meanwhile, I have a feeling that Trump is learning first-hand why we really do need to drain the Washington swamp. When you have to count on Establishment hacks like lyin' Ryan & McCuck McConnell, it's never going to be easy.

And, that's just the unofficial opposition. Don't even get me started on the most poisonous snakes in the swamp, like Pelosi & Schumer (Chuck, not Amy. Although, come to think of It, I despise her, too).

He's also marking it with the lowest approval ratings EVER for a president in the first 100 days.



So, now polls are accurate again? Good to know.

Trump has already drained that Goldman swamp. Now he just needs to get rid of everyone who disagrees with him.

Depends on your views, but those who export most aren't happy about that. Especially agriculture and high quality products.

With what strategy? Because right now it seems like he just dropped a headline inducing bomb and wiped his hands.

No measure of this. Only by people who post on facebook saying the feel "patriotic" again. People who respected them still respect them, and those that don't, still don't. Didn't change with POTUS'.

Burdensome business regulations have been repealed

And/Or vital consumer protections. The retirement adviser one is especially idiotic and bad.

I don't even know what that means.

Trump is bombing the shite out of ISIS, calling radical Islamic Extremism by it's proper name, and isn't excusing terrorism by blaming it on climate change.

As if Obama wasn't? Drone airstrikes were his best friend. Choice of vocab is totally subjective. It is a fact that as land resources dwindle, human population will be pressed into conflict.

yeah, no need to know about the earth....especially when you only do all of your work launching from there. Exclusive space exploration focus is shortsighted.

Which means you have struck upon your problem.

You can live in denial, but the fact that ILLEGAL immigration is down 65% is YUUUGE.

There's something called the Business Confidence Index (possibly slightly off on the name). It's at 93% right now. That's the highest it's been in something like 45 years. It was 66% when the community agitator left office. You know, Mr. 'You didn't build that'

As for business investment, where have you been? I'm not going to go back & list it again, but businesses starred announcing increased investment in their American operations AFTER 11/8. THEY DIDN'T EVEN WAIT UNTIL TRUMP'S INAUGURATION. And, not just domestic businesses. China, Japan & Taiwan have made announcements to do increased business in America, too.

Whatever we get from the coal industry is a plus. Would you rather people stay home & collect a government check? If China follows thru on becoming a customer, we will see a nice uptick in the coal industry. Besides, it takes time for any industry to basically start-up again.

Regarding Syria, the Trump Administration has said that it was a strategic strike for a definitive purpose. Did you miss that?

NATO wasn't even focused on terrorism before Trump. I'm glad Trump spoke up. Aren't you?

Obama's toxic racial rhetoric was so toxic that it even led to an epidemic of cop assassinations. Did you miss that? Imo, one of the enduring "legacies" of Obama's disastrous time in office will be the sights, sounds, and images of that snake-in-the-grass attending funerals for cops, knowing damn well that the vomit that spewed from his mouth caused those tragedies.

Thank God we once again have a pro-American President once again occupying the Oval Office.

Good job, Parrot, repeating Democrat talking points given to you by the media.

Let's face it, Chump, you were never going to vote for Trump and you will never support Trump no matter what.

Keep supporting your Democrats, with their open borders and Gestapo use of the powers of Der Staat to persecute their political enemies.

So what, want? Those things are still going to happen.

So what if Trump, who had never experienced working with the beltway Washington scum before, overestimated what that experience would be like? When your "friends" are compromised clowns like lyin' Ryan & McCuck McConnell, and your official enemies are snakes like Pelosi and Schumer, it isn't easy.

But, prepare both thy tear glands and thy anus, a want. Trump will succeed. It took your boy 14 months to get the Titanic of all legislation, Obamacare, passed. Obtw, he never did close Gitmo. Thank God.

Meanwhile, you can kindly glean my OP for a ton of REAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS already achieved on President Trump's watch. You're welcome

What he always demonstrates: that he's a complete political hack here not to have any intelligent exchange of thought, but, rather, to agitate and issue propaganda for the Democrats. He is to be ignored or held in contempt and derision, because he is worthy of nothing more.

Does the fact that I didn't vote for trump mean I can't point out where he fricks up?

And it's a talking point for me to laugh that donald trump himself posted a "contract" on his website that listed all of his first 100 days accomplishments that they haven't been done?

The "talking point" here is you deflecting with "talking point" rebuttals.

Somehow you left off the list that he will be the least popular President in American history after the first 100 days. Worst Presidential Approval Rating After First 100 Days

Before you dismiss this as fake news, it was notable that the poll didn't necessarily paint a great picture for Democrats:
quote:

The Washington Post/ABC poll showed that 67% of people said that the party was out of touch with the concerns of Americans, compared to the 62% of respondents who said the Republican party was out of touch with the concerns of Americans. That represents a 19-point shift from when the same poll was conducted three years ago.

"First 100 days" is quite possibly the most ridiculous political metric we have regarding the Presidency. It is completely fabricated by the media and holds almost zero correlation to modern legislation/Presidential achievements.

I couldn't care less about any of that. If it warms the cockles 9f your heart to hear left-wing puppets like Scott Pelley bashing T4ump 24/7, knock yourself out.

Trump is doing the things I have wanted him to do. The legislative action will take longer, simply because an outsider who isn't bought-and-paid-for doesn't have any natural alliances in Congress.

But, I truly believe that even 98% of the agenda which requires legislative approval will get done. Why should I give a damn about an arbitrary 100-day measuring rod? Hell, I'm still ECSTATIC that it hasn't been Hildabeast's first 100 days.

Like what? He really hasn't accomplished much of anything other than completely dividing this country. It isn't ALL his fault, but he does nothing to try and reach across the aisle to compromise on solutions.

you are padding your list to make it appear "more".

when president A leaves office, president B is now the president.

when candidate A wins, candidate B is not the winner.

thanks for that info.

so helpful to the nation as a whole to know that when one person wins, another one has lost.
