And how would you rate him vs other Presidents in their first year?

Obviously denuclearization of NOKO would be huge if that happens.

Trump’s biggest accomplishment is that he is not Hillary Clinton

For a lot of people, that alone is a huge, significant accomplishment

Exposing the shadow government by their coup attempt would be #1

But that would of course fall into year 2

As far as year 1 accomplishments getting tax reform passed is probably the most relevant accomplishment

Major tax reform and a conservative SCOTUS appointment. That should be enough for anyone

Raising the stakes on the illegal alien invasion. Increased deportations.

The tax cut is the most obvious. Quietly what he has done to the federal judiciary has already cemented his legacy, and most aren't even aware. Massive appointments, all strict constructionists, and all very, very young. It is already a generational change, and I predict in 20 years is a long lasting legacy.

I know that President Obama was big on deporting illegals and I certainly supported his stance on that. However, I didn't know that deportations had dropped off under the new administration. Thanks for the update. That's bothersome.

I believe that’s a semantics thing. Not to give snopes credit but they’re fair here IMO

Actually I believe some of it is attibuted to better security at the borders preventing new people from coming in

So it might not be as bad as it sounds

That's not even remotely true. Obama's ICE deported FAR fewer immigrants who made it past the border, but began counting "turnbacks" as deportations to artificially inflate that number. Hundreds of thousands of illegals who were simply picked up within a few miles of the border, fingerprinted, and sent back over were counted as Obama deportations to cover the fact that ICE had been ordered not to pursue immigrants who made it safely inside the US.

Actual deportations of illegals within the US dropped by half under Obama.
