He has done nothing remotely approaching what he said he would do. Just look at healthcare. No one seriously believed he was going to provide this great utopian healthcare plan. But he wasn't even involved in the process. He let Congress try and try, just egging them on to repeal the ACA. But he never suggested any plans or ideas of his own.

Trump's campaign were basically Bannon's ideas. Funny thing is, with Bannon gone, now it's just going to be government as usual, which so many Trump supporters voted against.
Yeah I totally get why they bought into the Trump message. Here is a new face promising to shake things up and bring jobs back to America. A guy who promised a better health care system. And of course he was the alternative to that witch Hillary.

So I totally get why so many bought into Trump. But what I will never get is their stubborn, dug in mentality that has them completely ignore or excuse away all the problems we see coming out of the White House every day. It is OK to admit the President has flaws but for whatever reason they are incapable of doing this. Simply amazing how this snake oil salesman has taken control of their minds.
