What have we learned in the year that Donald Trump has been a president?
Three things, as this video with Robert Reich shows.
1. Trump is really not a president of USA, because he is not governing.
- A president who is governing, does not blast his Attorney General for doing his duty and recusing himself from an FBI investigation of the president.
- A president who is governing, does not leave the top echelons of departments and agencies empty for almost a year.
- He doesn't publicly tell his secretary of state he's wasting time trying to open relations with North Korea. Any president with the slightest interest in governing would already know and approve of what his secretary of state was doing.
- He doesn't fire half his key White House staff in the first nine months, creating utter chaos. A president who governs works with his cabinet and staff to develop policy. He doesn't just tweet new public policy out of the blue -- for example, that transgender people can't serve in the military. His secretary of defence is likely to have some thoughts on this matter....
ROBERT B. REICH is Chancellor's Professor of Public Policy at the University of California at Berkeley and Senior Fellow at the Blum Center for Developing Economies. He served as Secretary of Labor in the Clinton administration, for which Time Magazine named him one of the ten most effective cabinet secretaries of the twentieth century. He has written fourteen books, including the best sellers "Aftershock", "The Work of Nations," and"Beyond Outrage," and, his most recent, "Saving Capitalism." He is also a founding editor of the American Prospect magazine, chairman of Common Cause, a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and co-creator of the award-winning documentary, INEQUALITY FOR ALL. http://robertreich.org/

"ROBERT B. REICH" DEMOCRAT who served under Clinton.
I'll consider the source and put him in the partisan biased column.

Robert Reich. That's rich.
Apparently, you haven't learned anything about Robert Reich, because the site you're citing conveniently omitted his many, um...controversies. If anyone can credibly criticize this president, it's NOT Robert Reich.

Put away those MSNBC flash cards.
Moderator cut: personal attack
Okay, if you want to talk about personalities, instead of the matter of the video:
Who, in current Trump's administration, can even come close to this:
- has been named one of the ten most effective cabinet secretaries of the twentieth century? (by Time Magazine, whose cover Trump wanted to be on so badly, that he faked it).
- has been a professor at a university?
- has written 14 books?
- has created an award-winning documentary?
- has been a member of American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

This can be said for ANY president no matter what side of the fence he's on. But in this case I agree Trump hasn't done much more then belittle anyone who disagrees with him and tweet about how everything is the fault of the left.
To hear him speak is painful nothing he says makes sense so much for having the best words even though he can hardly pronounce them. He's done more diving this country then any one president has and that is what he wants. in the meantime he's giving his rich friends tax cuts and himself once he's out of office.
Firing people who doesn't jump doesn't make him president it makes him a fool and nothing less.
Oh, geesh, not someone else that doesn't realize that Trump is the President of the United States. Where do these people get their news.
Also, this dragging up people most of us never heard of and appearing to claim that because they have stated whatever negative about Trump is "the flavor of the day" that it is some kind of revelation that we should all stop and listen that we should "see the light" has just gotten silly. Many of us are capable of thinking for ourselves, and certainly in this case, don't need a Democrat at Berkeley to spoon feed us thoughts! Why the heck would I give a darn what he has to say? Just silliness coming from the left. She lost, get over it!
OP, we do listen and we do think, and if liberals did that, they might be able to get over Hillary Clinton's loss, heck if they did that when nominating someone to run against Trump............... So, pass it along that the left needs to do some thinking and listening for best future results. Trump is doing a lot better than CA is. I would think those in CA should be concerned first about the state of their state!
