His only achievement is a tax bill that will add $1 trillion to the deficit.

Great article. Perfectly describes the current situation. Also pretty scary how corrupt Obama was. You are seeing that corruption now with how partisan and corrupt the Obama FBI, DOJ and EPA is/was.

Not to mention all the activist Leftwing circuit court judges he installed throughout the system. So much draining to do for the Trump team.

Not only does Trump have to make America great again, but he has an added task of cleaning up the corruption left over from eight years of Obama.

President Trump did more than any president in history in his first year to relieve the regulatory burden on Americans. Complying with useless government regulations costs the economy $2 trillion a year, or 21% of the average payroll per American company. Estimates are that the Obama regs slowed the economy by 0.8%. Trump's regulatory cuts, in which his administration removed 22 outdated regulations for each new one, is a big part of his doubling our economic growth in one year.

...
Trump's personal qualities have resulted in the defeat of ISIS, our improved relations with the Saudis (now on board fighting terrorism and cooperating with Israel), restoration of our warm alliance with Israel, decertifying the odious Iran deal, and supporting the Iranian demonstrators against the mullahs. European countries are finally paying their NATO dues, illegal aliens invading our country are being stopped at the border, the H-1B visa system is being applied lawfully to protect American jobs, and terrorists are no longer welcome into the country.


And there's more to come... offshore oil bans from Obama are being removed... health insurance may begin being sold across state lines, which will lower insurance costs.
Wow you really tow the party line don't you? I don't have time to debunk all of that, but you might want to see how even Republicans are reacting to opening up our coastlines to oil drilling, they aren't happy. Trump plan to drill for oil off Atlantic coast stirs opposition | Idaho Statesman

Health insurance could always be sold across state lines, where have you been? The problem is that if you live in Anchorage Alaska you will still pay rates based on the cost of healthcare in that state, you won't pay what people do in Oregon or Colorado. The H1B system is a joke if Trump was really looking out for American workers he would kill that program, same with the H2B which he uses to hire all his cutesy girl staffers from old soviet bloc countries for his resorts rather than hiring Americans.

Listing benefits for America... equals towing the party line.

Much of what you listed do not benefit America, unregulated offshore drilling does wonders for Rex Tillerson not so much for people who don't want to wade in oil spills when they go to the beach. Trump created fewer jobs in 2017 than Obama did in 2016. 16,000 manufacturing jobs fewer than in 2016, retail jobs down 67,000. Total jobs added 2.1 million in 2017 vs 2.2 million in 2016. December jobs 148,000 down from 2016 and around 42,000 less than estimate.

Not much there to benefit America, is there?

The author of the link must have been on LSD when he wrote that article. It is so far out as to be hilarious.

Close to satire.
