Interesting perspective. I think any good is in spite rather then due to. Besides, the president is now irrelevant. He's either playing golf or barricaded in his quarters watching tv. The adults have moved on and are actually running the country. Even the hard core Republicans have moved on. So much for "winning."

Thank G-d he only works 40% of the time at most, think of how much more havoc he could cause.

The great thing about Mr. Trump being elected?.......the leftists don't know what to do. Like a b.b in a 55 gallon drum being shaken. No direction just accusations.
And when the lies don't work they make up more. They are the enemy within

What I quickly notice are two things:

1) Your hyperbolic BS "the America hating left"

2) That along with your whine of "no facts" you conveniently overlook the fact the OP was presented with NO supporting facts.

I guess that should come as no surprise coming from supporters of a POTUS who frequently makes stuff up as he did with El Paso crime states in a lame attempt to defend his made-up "national emergency".

Not as many major shootings. Not seeing Ferguson-like riots anymore.

The stock market had a rough October too and could always crash too... Unemployment is lower but wages isn't exactly great. You didn't mention the latter.

If ISIS is "done" why are we staying in Syria? Also how can we take North Korea seriously when they still are actively doing their nuclear program?

Gas prices are about the same as they were last year which was an increase though not as bad as summer 17 for me.

No major shootings? I guess you have lived under a rock. They have virtually been at the same rate. Vegas, Parkview, Jewish community centers, Aurora... Then again a number of states are saying enough is enough and voting out NRA friendly politicians and pushing for gun control.

In regards to Ferguson, we see more and more cop incidents where they go overboard. Plus, what do you call Charlottesville with all the Neo-Nazi iconography in it?

Most of this is straw arguments.

If at least 95% of Americans that can work were working and discrimination was nearly forgotten, it would be even better.

ISIS is done. The troops are coming home. Everyone except Trump says ISIS is still a threat There's constructive dialogue with North Korea. Thank goodness S.Korea invited N.Korea to the Winter Olympics. BTW, Trump’s Sec of State said just today that N.Korea is still a threat.

Gas prices are low. Again, when gas prices climb will you blame Trump?

Not as many major shootings. It’s like Texas, Las Vegas, Parkland, and Philadelphia never happened right? Not to mention the day to day mass shootings. There’s a reason Trump is known as the massacre President Not seeing Ferguson-like riots anymore. Name one thing that Trump has done to prevent riots.

Crime is down. Crime rates have been falling for the last quarter of a century Prosperity is up. For now. Trump owns it when prosperity drops, right? Blacks and Hispanics are doing extremely well economically. Extremely well? There has been a slight drop in unemployment.

The sun is brighter. The weather is better. The people are happier. The sky is bluer. Trump’s EPA will pollute those blue skies soon enough, enjoy it why you can.Water tastes better. Trump’s EPA just set back clean water regulations this week. Enjoy clean water while you can.
I’m sure as a Trump fan you are happy. Enjoy your time in the sun.

Low gas prices are kinda bad for my area. Also crime has been going down since Bill Clinton was President/ left Office.

Don't worry, that massive tax giveaway to the super-rich will pay for itself. Just you wait for the "trickle-down"

Why? Trump's tariffs and Trump's policy blunders like TPP. Even this minuscule improvement comes at the cost of divisiveness, open displays of hatred, and a loss of national unity. Truly, we would be far better off had democracy determined the results of the last election and we had a president who did not bring shame and embarrassment to our country even if we disagreed on policy.
This is exactly what I mean......right here. When someone thinks that a 25 percent increase is paltry they have no skin in the game, Zip. Wasn't that last hapless clown (over his head from day one) referred to as the "divider and cheif"?..........yep.
The only hatred is from the left who still can't figure out what happened and the why the crook clinton wasn't elected. Why hasn't she been locked her up?

And when the Mueller report comes out and nothing comes of it........THE LEFT IS GOING TO START SCREAMING MUELLER WAS PAID OFF............MARK MY WORDS.
Everything the left does fails. But fools continue to follow.
