Hate to break it to you, but he’s done a decent job keeping his campaign promises.

He still needs someone to break his fingers or lock up his tweeting device.
I'm a Trump supporter and agree with this. He just needs to S T F U and keep to facts when he's public speaking as well.

The Obamacare repeal lost by ONE VOTE. When a few more Republicans grow a pair we will have the repeal, and the WALL. I know you think Trump is a dictator, but Congress still has to pass his agenda.

The legislative-branches are responsible for writing the federal budget, not the executive-branch.

If Trump could just write the thing up himself, you would have already seen a wall and a lot of other stuff.

Please - Obama for 8 years said he would bring about hope and change - in that aspect - he's worse than Trump - because it never came to be and he lied. Rome wasn't built in a day and I'm more than satisfied with what Trump has done that I will vote for him again.

Liberals seem to forget all the promises made and not kept by their candidates - but remember everything Republicans promised but never delivered. Promises are nothing more than campaign hype and being the amt of things that needed fixing after Obama - Trump has had his hands full - that was the libs excuse remember when Obama didn't deliver - it was Bush's fault.

And as for mexico paying for it -- for the 10,000th time on these boards, he didn't say that Mexico was going to directly pay for it by writing a check.
He said Mexico will pay for the wall.

Yeah. I'll vote for him this time, too.
The problem is, there are too many Democrats in Washington. As long as there are Democrats to obstruct and deny, there will be a delay.
All we need to do is get rid of them. Looks like the Republicans will pick up a seat or two in the senate. Hopefully, we will hold on to the House.

Repealing the ACA would have been a disaster for the republicans, they had no plan for replacement. I wish they had their way on the wall and the ACA then we could see them in broad daylight with no question about their incompetence. Did you notice that none of the republicans thought the wall was such a great idea before Trump, but now its a solution to preventing any illegal immigration. I wish they got it through it would be a monument to the republican party for decades to come and not in a good way.

I just heard something funny about The Wall. Well, it was on late-night TV, so it was presented humorously, but it seems to be true. Apparently all the prototypes were failures.

The great boastful developer can't even get a competent wall built!

Really? Well, here's some humor for you anti-wall people.

By the way, this is from your article so don't get too excited yet.


CBP had said publicly that they never intended to select a single winning design, but rather would choose successful elements from each prototype to incorporate into future barriers along the Southwest border.
