I do suspect that they will continue to undermine his ideas for policy and block and defy his attempts to enforce our existing laws such as those that are in place to protect our borders. Sanctuary cities are a joke and a big middle finger to Trump.

The Dems have a vision for America and it is not pretty in the eyes of a Conservative.

The Dems will keep up the pressure on Trump until 2020 when they will hope that they made enough of a mess to cast doubt in to the minds of enough voters to make Trump a one term President.

That has been their plan from the day he won.
After all the recent comments why she lost the election by the former leader of the Democratic party...Hillary.....are you hoping she will run again?

Democrats seem to think bashing Trump is their ticket to the 2020 presidential election...

It is ALL ABOUT SCOTUS picks
Trump could divorce Melania and turn the Whitehouse into the playboy mansion and they would look the other way as long as they got SCOTUS picks.
And frankly the GOP got that point before Dems
Obama should have done a recess appointment right away when McConnell stalled

We really need to suspend belief to actually accept that though. Everything in this world is driven by money. No one "takes the fall" for someone else without something in return. Is it possible the lawyer was not reimbursed? Sure. Is it possible he was reimbursed by some other means? Certainly.

He wouldn't leave France to come to Jackie's side after she suffered a premature stillbirth and hemorrhaging...until, of course, he was warned that such heartless actions would affect his Presidential run. And then of course there was HIS womanizing. Well known. All while Jackie bore three children...one of whom died...as well as the stillbirth and a miscarriage.

Why are Democrats suddenly finding Donald Trump's past womanizing behavior NEWSWORTHY?
I was in highschool when Kennedy was shot
In jr high when he ran
And saw that episode
No news then really about his womanizing
Private life was controlled easier, less vulnerable to exposure then

If you support Trump likely you hate any MSM beside Fox and other alt right info sources
The alt right had no trouble putting Clinton in the spotlight w/legitimate and not so legitimate sources

I would respect your argument more if you admitted the hypocrisy behind two standards for politicians of both parties
If you deny it exists then that is just more hypocrisy...

Dragging the public through a constant cycle of new fabricated or exaggerated stories with the assumption that they have some damning evidence when in reality is nothing but recycled bits of information from what was already public knowledge or salacious details from his playboy lifestyle. I think people forget that this isn't the 70s Nixon era anymore. It wouldn't take "years" to bring down a president in this technological era if they were truly engaged or propagating illicit behavior. Liberals, it's time to wake up and face the music. Trump isn't going anywhere.
There are two hopes from those suffering with TDS.

One is they hope that things that caused politicians to quit in the past (personal scandal, saying something un-PC so they can call label them ___ist, ___phone, etc.) will cause him to throw up his hands, say I am fed up with all this crap and leave office.
Needless to say that is not going to happen because he has think skin and will not play along with their gotcha politics.

However and much more likely they know this, and are doing everything in the power to tie him up which helps to keep some of his agenda from being done.
Remember the media has gone hard left, just like the party they represent, the Democrats. Thus they will try to damage/distract him in any way they can. Of course along they way they expose themselves as being shills for the (D's), and drag what is left of their so called "profession" through the mud. However that was clearly exposed during the election with numerous examples.
Heck even the NYT acknowledged their disconnect with society, yet within days of saying they were going to reevaluate themselves, they were right back to their uber leftist/liberal reporting.
So the MSM figures they are already tainted and not trusted, so they will go for ratings among the koolaid drinkers.

There is a lot of evidence the top level of the FBI was corrupt.

- Passing tax and omnibus bills that add trillions to the national debt.
While I am concerned about the increase in the national debt I was more concerned about the unfunded military and the crumbing national infrastructure. After eight years of increased national debt under Obama which did nothing for fixing infrastructure and a demise of our military readiness I see the new budget to fix those problem neglected by our prior administration.
I also remember the stimulus 'shovel ready' that failed to fix a damn thing. After the wasted money spent to bail out both auto industries and big banks and the elimination of auto manufacturers, parts plants and dealerships being the trade off for the bailouts, the money paid to failing companies for political donation like Solyndra. I could go on but I am sure you get the point of all this.

- Launching tariff and trade wars.
After years of trade deficits with China I see the new tariffs as refreshing. Let China bring it on. I believe it will hurt China a lot more then it will the US.

- Running cover for Trump while he is undermining the Constitution.
Wow, just wow....who exactly is undermining the US Constitution? Its the left who is attacking both the 1st and 2nd amendments.
If you have some secret information of Trump undermining the Constitution bring it on.

Democrats seem to think bashing Trump is their ticket to the 2020 presidential election...
And Trump supports seem to think bashing HRC who won't run and wasn't indicted in Benghazi investigations will continue to deflect/protect Trump from any mistakes, legal or otherwise, he made and will make...

But you do enjoy your pay raise, don't you?
And if you run a business, you probably enjoy the benefit of some reduction in paperwork and regulation, or perhaps you enjoy the influx of new customers who now have a job.

So it ain't all bad.

Except that it is a tax cut for 80% of taxpayers, not just for "the rich."
