How about consumer confidence at an all-time high.....illegal border crossings down 70+ percent.....reworking VA so vets can see their own doctors....getting rid of onerous business regulations that are strangling businesses.....stock market at all-time high, helping the half of Americans who own stocks....successful military operations.....unemployment at a 17-year low.....food stamp usage down....flying his private jet to rescue a sick child (bet you didn't hear about that, did you?).....signing the Keystone pipeline to add 80,000 jobs and work toward energy independence.....returning issues to Congress that rightfully should have been their decision ....red., etc. those are some off the top of my head.

Here's a more inclusive list. And yes, I had to go to a conservative site to get some. The liberal media isn't reporting them (which was my point).

P.S. I don't particularly like this site, but I'm leaving for work. I'll find something better later.

-Consumer confidence is not at an all time high
-Illegal border crossings have been going down for years, this is not due to Trump. In fact, Obama deported more illegals in the first 9 months of 2016 than Trump has in the first 9 months of 2017.
-The VA reform was underway under Obama and in fact, the head is the one Obama holdover.
-What specific business regulations that were onerous have been eliminated and what exactly is the economic impact and environmental impact of said regulations?
-Stock market has been rising for years as a result of the stabilization of the economy under the previous administration. Yes it has seen a bounce due to the anticipation of corporate tax cuts, but even Mnuchin said yesterday that those DOW gains would disappear if the cuts don't happen. Most Americans do not benefit from a rise in the stock market.
-What policies has Trump enacted that has impacted unemployment? Again, the trendline has been good for years.
-What policies has Trump enacted that has impacted Food Stamps? Again, the trendline has been good for years.
-How does flying one sick kid compare to the overt abuse that has cost millions in taxpayer dollars and Tom Price his job?
-Check your figures on Keystone. Also, where is the steel for the pipeline coming from? Oh ya, Russia.
-Keystone is not energy independence for the US. The best path towards energy independence in the US is renewables, which has 6x the jobs of coal in the US.
-Returning issues to Congress. In theory, I agree with you on this. In practice, Trump has signed many more impactful EO's than Obama and doesn't have any major legislative victories.

So off the top of your head, there really isn't much that Trump has accomplished. Well, actually, he has made our foreign policy a shambles, has caused further instability in Kurdistan and North Korea, is inflaming our longtime Allies in Europe over both the EU and Iran.

I guess we really do live in two countries if you believe what you wrote.

I knew you would pick apart all the great things Trumo has done with lots of mis-truths. You are clearly one of those libsters who will never in a million yeaes acknowledge that there are many things Trump has accomplished - or even a single thing for that matter. You're too blinded with bias, and I'm not going to waste any more time trying to convince someone who is so completely one-sided in her perspective.

I for one am glad millions of middle-class Americans are in better shape as a result of Trump's policies. We count, too  you know.

The same middle class that is in line to pay higher taxes if that bill goes through? So. Much. Winning.  :lol: [/quote]
Yeah, but you know what? The extra $2K or whatever I will pay in taxes is NOTHING compared to the $15,000 it's now costing me in medial care (premiums + actual expenses) thanks to Obamacare. That is a much bigger problem. Besides, with the zoom up in the market due to Trump's business-friendly policies, I will make it back in increased value. I'm fine with it all, as are other middle-class people who have responsibly put money away for retirement. They will gain....BIGLY![/quote]
