I find it ironic how so many dems scream and holler about repubs sexual lives then spend so much time casting insults and fantasizing on ones sexual life.

I suggest a reading comprehension course.

You either didn't understand or are ignoring the content on purpose.

Talking Trump's shrinking mind

Poor ol' tRump.

He has "the best" dementia ever!

Here is what your little chart shows:


544 bills passed committee. Fine. But that does not translate into law, or has anything to do with Mr. Trump.


477 bills passed the House. Again, fine (I thought conservatives thought that the less bills, the better, but we will ignore that), but what does it signify?


During the House's two-year tenure, some 10,000 plus bills are submitted by the 435 members. It is not a magically thing to introduce a bill: you literally drop your proposed bill into a hopper, where it is assigned a bill number; most then die away, although some are passed on to a committee. Even if the bill survives and is passed out of the committee, many of them never make it to the floor for a vote. Those House bills that are passed by the House are then sent to the Senate (which your little chart ignores), where even more die.


Anyway, your little chart does not prove that Mr. Trump is active during the day. It does shows that the House is active.

On the contrary.

He IS getting a LOT done.

You and your just don't like what he is getting done.

More bills passed then average, and MORE then Obama passed at the same time in their 1st terms.

CANCELLED MANY of Obama's EO/EMs, especially killing many bad regulations.

Appointed a Conservative replacement to the Supreme Court.

Consumer confidence is away up.

Every economic stat is UP. Many breaking previous records.

Signed into law the first tax cut, which about 80% of all Americans will see a tax CUT, in over 30 years.

Obama Care will die of its own accord with the "penalty tax" removed.

etc., etc., etc.
Didn't Bush II give us a tax cut? I remember getting a check once or twice during his Presidency.

Lots of faux news and breitbart viewing time required to generate the agenda for the base and tweet it out it seems

https://www.axios.com/donald-trump-p...02c334255.html

Trump has spent around 60% of his scheduled time over the past 3 months in unstructured "Executive Time."

But that's never going to happen, so let's all just be happy that his ability to do damage is limited by his infant-like attention span and total lack of interest in actually doing any work.

They say that his staff often swipes documents off his desk, to keep him from signing them and he doesn't know that he's missed anything.

The Liberal Snowflake Democrats don't need to know, since they have very little leverage or say I any of this Making America Great Again.

Yeah, so how is that replacement for Obamacare coming ? Or how about that "wall" ? So far, the only thing he has accomplished is alienating the rest of the world and our most valued allies from us.

WINNING !!!!!

And I had to put 40 hours or more into my average Joe job. Let’s knock off 60% of his yearly pay I say.
