Insurmountable obstacles, all, at least with the rabid leftists and RINOs Trump has to deal with ... and now with a leftist-controlled House.  We'll be lucky, as a nation, if he manages to just stay in office... much less win another term.   Not exactly looking promising, is it.   That said.... I still do believe in the possibility of miracles.  I just no longer expect them.   happy77

The SCOTUS will be the key.  We need one more conservative Justice, I think. 

The obstacles had better not be insurmountable.  Trump needs to accomplish all of them--or at least set them up for accomplishment by his successor.

I agree.  But considering the situation we are now in.... I don't see how he can or will get much accomplished over the next two years.... thanks to the feckless/gutless GOP party.

That's why the SCOTUS is the key.  Some of the actions I suspect he will take will be over Congressional objections but would have SCOTUS support.

It’s not just RINOs he has to contend with, Xena. It’s a significant contingent of NeverTrump conservatives in government and in media he must deal with in order to accomplish his undeniably conservative agenda.

I think if the media wasn't biased and Mueller wasn't up his ass he'd possibly be pushing 60%.

I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

We need more people like Trump. I am so tired of nothing happening in government. These issues need to be resolved.

Then ask yourself why, this past January, he chose to back incumbents and said he would no longer endorse ‘insurgent candidates.’

Taking the President seriously but not literally should help the confused grasp the point of his tweet.  Good luck.

True of course, ...on its face.

What in the hell does any American adult have a problem with today, compared to what their lives and futures were in 2009-2016?

What's more expensive?  Gasoline is less than $3 @ gal.  More people working (in meaningful jobs) than ever before.

...a complete 180 turn from the Obama economy years.

75% seems reasonable to me.

His point is STILL TODAY...42% of the American people believe that the Russians rigged votes to let Donald Trump win. 

Take away Mueller and CNN and he's well over 60% conservatively.
