At this point trump looks ineffective and soon to be impotent if not there already. He can not bring Republicans together at all anymore. The only way he can get stuff done seems to me to be get "trumpublicans" elected. That's a ways off if it ever can happen.

Tax reform has been watered down before the latest debacle going on. We can only expect another crazy happening to over shadow this one, before it can die down. We still don't know what the special council is doing. Aint even thinking about that now but we all know its coming.

So the question is how much of the trump agenda can get passed thats not an EO? What do you think he can do to get vack on track? Or is he on goal in your eyes no problems in sight.

He was probably all choked up then about "how Trump articulated his feelings"!

He's just parroting the Late Night Show monologues .. one in particular.

You two never disappoint.

Biggest is the "Draining of the Swamp" which is gonna be a lengthy, arduous task. Too many people in Congress who have no business being there. And that in itself is simply gonna take time to purge.

We're just shy of hitting seven full months in office. To some that may feel like a lifetime. To others, it's simply the beginning. Some goals have been accomplished (per Bambino)....but so, so many more remain. Part of reaching those goals is addressing and overcoming the "problems" that persist. And it's gonna take time, that's all.

So wtf are you talking about?

He shot up an airfield after warning Russia he was going to do so. Wow.

He drew a red line in the sand and NK spit on it.

He did appoint a conservative as fuck Judge. No doubt about that.

You'd know about premature....

Tax reform , real tax reform does not stand a chance of passing.

Infrastructure? His plan is ridiculous. .

GDP at 2.6, higher than it's been in years. Record Stock Market
He took out 5% of Assads Air Force in a half hour. Something Obama didn't have the balls to do.
NK took back their Guam threat.
Republicans will pass tax reform. They want to keep they're jobs
Democrats will help pass infrastructure, they don't want to get run over in 2018

You want to bet on this? I'd love to be your bookie in football. You couldn't pick a winner with Monday's sports page!!!!!!!
