- Mexicans paying for the wall has not happened
- Islam travel ban failed
- Tax reform stalled
- Withdrawn troops not enacted
- Excess golf trips
- Huge turnover of staff
- Overuse of private jets by Tom Price
- Russian connection investigation still ongoing and wrote his son-in-law's response to investiators
- Attempted to undermine agreement with Iran leading to his staff to intervene against him
- The grieving widow situation.

I guess it's easier to list his successes:
- Economy still performing strongly.

But it will if he adds measures that they do pay for it in some form.

Next...

- Islam travel ban failed
Wrong, the Supreme Court reapplied parts of his Executive Order. SC to decide the full implementation in the near future.

Next...

Quote:
- Tax reform stalled
Wrong again, wtf do you get your information from ?

The Republicans have passed a $ 4 Trillion budget measures resolution just a few hours ago which will pave the way towards their tax plan later this year.

Quote:
Withdrawn troops not enacted
This is a bad thing because ?

Do you not stop to consider he has been advised to keep troops in certain key places?

Especially to defend against Isis.

Quote:
Excess golf trips
Complete hyperbole.

Quote:
- Huge turnover of staff
Chaotic, agreed but irrelevant to any kind of failure.

Quote:
Overuse of private jets by Tom Price
Not relevant to Trump whatsoever. Trump affirmed his disapproval of this. Tom Price resigned from his post. Case closed.

Quote:
- Russian connection investigation still ongoing and wrote his son-in-law's response to investigators
Yawn, what Russian connection?

Proof please, bear in mind, not even Senate Intelligence Committee have seen any to date.

Quote:

Incorrect again, he’s kicked the issue down the road to congress to see if they want to renew sanctions. Iran is an hostile nation, it recently hacked in to parliamentary emails. You honestly think Iran will keep to the agreement?

Quote:
- The grieving widow situation.
There is no situation other than crappy media outlets trying to sensationalise an issue, to carry on with their pathetic hysteria to bash Trump. General Kelly succinctly addressed the issue of the pathetic Democratic Congresswoman, listening in on a private call, in the video above.

He's not failed at all, he's doing a great job, everyone says so, in fact they say he's one of the best presidents ever.

That could be been one of his tweets. He should be more vocal on his accomplishments so far like pushing that guy out of the way at the nato summit or hanging up the phone on Australia and that's without mentioning the vast crowds he keeps drawing for events as varied as the woman's march.

The PM guy himself later said he found the incident at NATO, ‘inoffensive’ and said he did not see it any other way. It was more daily Trump media hysteria. Old stuff, as is the rest of your post.

One recent thing that’s happened under his watch, Isis has been eliminated from the city of Raqqa, by US led forces. The city in Syria itself though is utterly devastated.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
 
US backed forces, not US led - the Syrian Democratic Forces led the initiative, backed by Coalition air strikes and US special forces.

I don't have the time to respond to all your comments which mostly can be summarised as "will happen in the future". I think that's been a large disappointment to many Republicans but if he does get tax reformed he will be in a far more credible position.
But with regard to the Russian one, all I've said is the investigation is still ongoing. I don't think even the most ardent Trump supporter can pretend otherwise. And unless you have a mole in the Committee, I don't think we know what they have or haven't seen.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
 
Cannot believe how reckless he is with his tweets
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...23063945453574

Just out report: "United Kingdom crime rises 13% annually amid spread of Radical Islamic terror." Not good, we must keep America safe!

Damien 20-10-2017 13:30
Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
 
BTW Part of the reason the crimes rates have all risen this year is a change in reporting methods. The news is irresponsible for it's coverage on this. Does it really sound reasonable that violent crime went up 19%? Most news companies do bury this information below the clickbait headline but still.

As for Trump tweeting it what do you expect?

Why is she pathetic? She was in the car with the widow of the soldier and the call was on speaker phone presumably because the widow want others to witness the call.

Quote:
In an interview with the Washington Post, Cowanda Jones-Johnson confirmed the account of Democratic Rep. Frederica S. Wilson, who heard Trump's remarks on a speakerphone as he talked with the widow of Sgt. La David T. Johnson, who was killed in Niger.
“President Trump did disrespect my son and my daughter and also me and my husband," Jones-Johnson said. She declined to elaborate on the call, but she said Wilson's account — which included Trump telling Johnson's widow that her husband "must have known what he signed up for" — was accurate.

Because she is. I’ll take the word of a Veteran Soldier, General Kelly over MSM with axes to grind.

I have had about 4 military friends said they would be honoured at any leader who told them they died for what they signed up for, they would also wNt to hear full context of the conversation before they passed judgement on the pathetic congresswoman to see how much she was being political.

"She is pathetic because she is?" Huh?

Are the widow and the dead soldier's mother also pathetic? Do you think they are lying and have an axe to grind?

Pathetic and desperate are those trying to defend this President's behaviour. Quite why they feel the need to do this, in a country they don't live in, I don't know. I would be interested to find out.

Obama was right when he said if you win an election by dividing people, you're going to have an impossible task trying to unite them afterwards, which should be the first job of any President. Trump just seem to want to divide further and create more hate. Quite what his game plan is I don't know, it can't be re-election for sure .....
