agree with this except for the grammar, you use "an" instead of "a" when the next word begins with a vowel

And maybe you should turn off MSNBC and pay attention to the real world.

Intelligent was added after the fact. Obama was a very bright guy but totally a radical. Luckily we have term limits or he could have done a lot more damage.

sure, b/c Reuters and BBC is #Fake news right? You know, where I actually get my news from besides the NY Times, which your orange messiah used to love until they said mean things about him and is pretty much universally lauded by sane people.

He is at 38% approval among all voting age Americans and been hovering around only 80% support from Republicans for the last month. 80% among his own party is a terrible rating, especially in the first year of presidency.

38% is about 20 points lower than most presidents at this time in their presidency. Trump is a low-confidence president, and the lowest in the last half of the existence of our country. He is a loser by his own definition.

If you like what he is doing, that is one thing, but if you look at his record impartially and removing as much bias as possible, you have to see that he is failing overall. If he does what he says he wants to do, great, right? But if America falls to the bottom of every ranking among modern developed countries, who wins?

Kinda like people sitting on the deck of a sinking ship saying "The view is now much better because the boat is lower in the water!"
Too true. The only people who think Trump is succeeding are those who lap up whatever Laura Ingraham pulls out of the microwave.
