He overpromised with his 100 days stuff, which wasn't smart. He's got a hell of a row to hoe to try to get the accomplished. We knew Congress would try to obstruct, but they feel emboldened now.

He picked a good supreme court judge and will possibly get another. That alone makes anything he does or doesn't do worth voting for him. I don't think most people realize how big of a bullet we dodged. If we lost the supreme court right now our rights would be out the window. We are at a point in this country where half the people do not want anymore federal goverenment. If they had the court on their pocket they'd just do whatever they want through the executive branch. I knew he'd fall flat on the legislative end because most republicans are either chicken shit liars or are only there to be bible thumping moral police. If we dont get these lame ass liars out of the party in primaries we will never make progress. |

He has delivered everything he possibly can considering the spineless shitheads of his own party obstructing him every step of the way. If not for a couple of those types, Obamacare would already be history. SCOTUS pick alone makes him far better than the vile cunt he ran against. He could literally sleep until noon and then play golf until dark every day for the next 7.5 years, with work breaks to pick more SCOTUS justices when necessary, and I would still call it an enormous net win. We need to light a fire under the spineless RINO scum who are playing politics as usual. |

That's not a surprise, his entire public life has been in support of some kind of universal healthcare, but a bad bill on his desk isn't a victory, and him demanding one isn't good leadership either. Repeal it (his promise). Replace it with something that works (also his promise). He failed on the first, he hasn't demanded or worked on that, instead accepting and then trying to push for a shitty reform bill which is like pouring sugar on a herpes sore to make it not so bad. |

His daughter eventually wore him down, and the Kushner/Banker/Israel faction beat the Bannon/White Middle Class faction. It's very telling that Sen Graham is now praising Trump for ramping up an unwinnable war in Afghanistan.

He's been if office for 7 months.
The libs/dems/socialist are fighting him tooth and nail at every step. He's got only a small percentage of his appointees approved and at work. The republicans that he thought he could count on are showing their true colors and not working very hard to support Trump or do what they were elected to do for their voters. Look how long it took the libs/dems/socialists and their president to get Obama Care passed - and they were working together. Think what Trump could be getting done if the RINO's were actually working with him. |

He hasn't delivered on everything overnight, but before the #NeverTrumpers pile on me for saying "he just needs 8 years to do anything!!REEEEEEEE" he has accomplished a lot in the 8 or so months he's been president.
-Handling the Norks and ChiComs well -He tried, as promised, to get improved relations with Russia and predictably failed. All the while he has not gotten soft on them and is pursuing intelligent foreign policy in this area -Gorsuch -Paris Agreement -Constant struggle to get the RINO obstructionists to do something about ZeroCare. Gotten damned close too for the level of opposition he faces. House needs to be cleaned congrwssionally come November next year. -Pushing the border Wall well but there are some problems here too re:congress -reversed on his Afghan policy, but I think did so well. I thought his views before were lacking, and thought he gave a great speech last night that reflected common sense and is in line what I wanted any politician (including the diaasterous "compassionate conservative"/GOPe RINO GWB) to say about the subject since it was a subject. I won't lie, it took me some time to get in the trump train, but I've been very impressed since his inauguration. MAGA |

Like ALL Presidential candidates, he shouldn't have made campaign promises that rely on others outside of his control, especially Congress.
However, I do not blame him for their inaction, and understand fully how "politicking" works. If anything, he's been the least political out of all politicians. I fear however, that the GOP won't get their head out of their ass and we'll lose the Congress, making the Trump platform even harder to obtain. Fuck the GOP back stabbers!

He is not a career politician. That means he will to through a learning curve that will probably take up most of his first term. He will stumble and trip... time and again ... but then he will get up, dust himself off, and keep fighting. Like that one writer said; "I can't spare him because he fights."
Until the rino cocksuckers that block him at every turn leave office he will continue to run up against brick walls getting any of his agenda through congress. He goes through a lot of staff because he is results oriented. "Can't do your job? No problem; I'll replace you with someone who can." I am on the fence about his use of twitter... on the one hand he does seem to comment a lot on bs that doesn't concern him or his office. On the other hand it really is the only way he can deliver his message since the MSM hates him. I'm grateful he chose someone like Gorsuch for the supreme court and I hope he gets to select several more. Love him or hate him, I truly believe he is the right man for the times. Nevertrumpers will never understand that it was 8 years of their muslim president that gave us Trump but that's no reason for them to stop telling us how terrible he is. 
MAGA!!!

One good thing he has done is exposed how full of shit our current republicans are. All this bullshit over repealing Obamacare. Trump is the perfect scapegoat for passing anything on the republican agenda. If it works you get the praise of it doesn't you lay it on trump.
I think they are spineless cowards. We need term limits. It's clear to me these fuckface motherfucks only care about getting along rather than representing the people who put them there. |
