Both 45/47 were better than anything we've had since Reagan 40.

Hes been better in some areas and worse in others, just like every multi term POTUS in history.

I think Trump 47 has had more of a sense of urgency in that he only has one more term and that he doesn't have to run for reelection.

He is trying to solve a lot of problems and is getting pushback from the often corrupt bureaucracy that is our federal government.

Well said. It’s also been more republican push back this term than the major democrat lawfare the first term faced.

Same TDS'ers who were bitching about Trump 24/7 during his first term. TDS is a strange phenomenon.

I still laugh at how absolutely bricked up this board got on “bridge and power plant day” only to run interference and defense for Trump after he chickened out


Or the people who are mad trump "chickened out" and yet are still crying about Trump destroying Iran's nuclear capabilities.

I've never said that, but Trump 45 didn't start new wars.

Nobody is crying about this and most everyone was fine with Operation Midnight Hammer. What I wasn't fine was with the lying afterwards - saying we had obliterated Iran's nuclear capabilities then 6 months later we were back to Iran being "two weeks" away from nukes. Its clown show type stuff.

Do you live in a perfect world where everything goes great the first time? Perhaps intel showed we had more to clean up so that’s why we attacked again. You certainly don’t have that information but you will criticize it.

It's his over-the-top bombastic jerking himself off over the success of the mission that makes people roll their eyes when we start a war 9 months later.

I used to ignore MSM just like you guys and almost implicitly trusted this administration. On this conflict, that has flipped.

I think Trump is Trump. For the first term he was an unknown entity and his ability truly threw them off. This go round, the deep state and the powers that be are no longer fully off guard. The toughest element they have to deal with is Trump's lack of predictability. They now realize they will NEVER out work nor out think the man, the myth, the legend, DONALD TRUMP!!!

None of the Trump supporters who I know buy this. Trump 47 came loaded for bear and everyone trying to screw the USA.

Anyone notice this is the new trend saying amongst “3x Trump supporters”

I don't know if it is a trend but it is factually correct.

What did you call it when the US and Russia teamed up to take out the ISIS caliphate?

Same thing.

I don't set my standards based on who is in charge.
