Not thinking past the tip of your nose, has instant satisfaction and long term disasters.

People here that lean way left, balk..... America has never been a success by failures.
You see the truth come to light with a reality poll. Critical thinking sets in, when shown the light.
No, it's not a "Catch 22" Do you even know what that means? No, really it is just dishonest. Just like your hero Trump,

I'm sure know one wants to see our country fail, although sometimes when I watch the news it seems like many would.
I want to see this country prosper along with its citizens. I'd like to see this happen regardless of whether Trump was responsible or not. Now since I voted for Trump, sure I'd like his presidency to be a success. And seeing where we are at now, if I could go back and change my vote, I would not. Now I'm also only about 50% happy with how things are going, which isn't entirely his fault. I'm sick of both parties, and their games. Once again they are forgetting whom they work for. I think Trump didn't realize how hard it would be for an outsider to come into the "club" and start making changes.

False poll.

A president may succeed or fail, but his failure never causes the nation to fail.

The U.S. did not fail after Nixon resigned. Even though Ford, who replaced him, was never elected President or Vice President.

The nation did not fail when Woodrow Wilson suffered a debilitating stroke while in office, and for the last year of his term, his wife and the Vice President took over the job unofficially. Or when several Presidents died in office.

It never failed when 3 Presidents were assassinated. The Constitution held, and we carried on.

Do I want Trump to succeed? Yes. I want every President to succeed. His success helps us all. But if he fails, we won't go down with him; like Nixon, he will leave all alone.

The rest of us will all go on, you included, with no substantial changes in our lives. It won't be the end of anything but his presidency.

The office is greater than the man in it. Our government is greater than the Presidency alone.

If Trump leaves, it won't even cause a hiccup in our governmental affairs. Others left before him, so it's nothing new.

If Donald Trump succeeds with his plan, America will have failed.

He's already a failed president. He had no intention of trying to work with democrats and he has gone after his own party with insults. I mean, what president does that. He's supposed to be a leader not alienate us even further. He's just a disgrace.

If OP or anyone thinks Trump has a plan to make America great again they are incredibly stupid. It is abundantly clear now that he has no plan for anything. He simply panders to his shrinking base by pretending to undo whatever Obama did...America be damned. He had no interest in MAGA once he got elected.

He has did things in 6 months, they said he would never get done.
Just the Supreme Court appointment was all I was hoping for. Everything else is the ice cream on top.
