Someone Just Noticed That Trump Is Getting Stuff Done
Investors Business Daily, Aug 4, 2017, Editorial Staff

<snip>

"Trump Has Quietly Accomplished More Than It Appears" reads the headline in the Atlantic.

"With the Trump administration's chaos sucking up all the attention," the article begins, "it's been able to move forward on a range of its priorities.... It is remaking the justice system, rewriting environmental rules, overhauling public-lands administration, and greenlighting major infrastructure projects. It is appointing figures who will guarantee the triumph of its ideological vision for decades to come."

Nothing to be afraid of here, folks.

This is good news.

Agreed. On the items requiring heavy lifting, such as ACA repeal, tax reform, and immigration reform, the record is not so rosy.

His constant tweet assaults on those who may be on the fence have not been helpful. They may be satisfying to you and his supporters, but it's not an appropriate demonstration of leadership IMO.

You hit it right on the head.

It's hard to move forward when you're taking so many steps backward or sideways and into so many puddles.

There is no need for "immigration reform".
There are plenty of immigration laws already on the books.
All we need to do is ENFORCE them -- which this administration has been doing.
Hadn't been done previously for at least 30 years.
The change is undeniable.

The other two items on your list must be resolved by the Congress.
That ain't Trump's fault.

I find it interesting that a rabid leftist magazine such as The Atlantic would take the time to list Trump accomplishments.

I read the Atlantic article last week when it was linked on Real Clear. I kept waiting for the snark to start but the whole thing was pretty straight shooting - the editors must have been on vacation that week...

Well, somebody's gotta do it. Except for what RIV posts and a smattering from a few others, it ain't getting done here at NT Central.

[Oceander]

Yeah, petty bickering on twitter, hiring incompetent staff, etc, etc, etc.  all the stuff he promised to do if elected.

[Rivergirl]

Like tearing up the Iran nuke agreement?
Like alienating our European allies.
Won't list the obvious........wall, Ocare, tax cuts, budget..........

@mystery-ak

NT Central? I'm sure the owner might take exception to your characterization of TBR...I certainly do.

Perhaps you'll find your safe space at TOS.

[Hondo69]

It is also interesting that CNN staffers take time out of their busy day to log into this forum to bash Trump.  You'd think doing it on live TV 24/7/365 would be enough, but that's indicative of their lifestyle.

Trump hired Flynn, Priebus, and The Mooch, didn't he?

Oh, please stop running to mommy @Night Hides Not   Sit back and just read through the posts on the forum--in any category-- and you'll see the vast majority are anti-Trump. It doesn't matter what the original subject of the thread is, it will become one overwhelmed by anti-Trump fun and games.  Reading through these posts is breathtaking to see on a "conservative/republican" forum.

I don't know why acknowledging this threatens you so---to the point that you publically suggest to the owner of the site that those who support the President be expelled.

I submit if this forum prefers a more balanced discussion and presentation of information, the few remaining supporters of the President, his agenda and his administration are sorely needed.

During the 1940's the Berlin Airlift made news around the world.  A similar U.S. undertaking also made news around the world during the Bush administration, except here in the U.S. where the massive relief project in Pakistan was subjected to a near total media blackout.  Epic undertakings are only epic if the media says so.

Trump could fly a man to the moon and the glass half empty crowd would find a reason to bitch about it, that is if anyone found it newsworthy enough to even report on such an epic feat.

   Though I haven't been here quite as long as you @aligncare I too, have noticed what an intelligent, discerning crowd Briefers are generally as a whole, unlike the sycophants at TOS and Trumpbart, very observant of you.

No worries @mystery-ak   No worries at all.   I'll not do it again.

So sorry to offend you...lol. It is not TBR's responsibility to provide the balance you seek...you confuse equal outcomes for equal opportunity...how Trumpian of you.

If you will recall, I seconded one of your posts yesterday. I will continue to do so when you express an opinion I agree with.

You're right. It doesn't hurt at all to hear something positive.
