How Trump is rolling back Obama's legacy
Fox News, Dec 27, 2017, Kaitlyn Schallhorn

President Trump spent his first year in office moving swiftly to roll back what his Democratic predecessor did in eight. The result: the steady unraveling of a slew of regulations and laws put in place under then-President Barack Obama, covering everything from the Internet to the environment to health care.

Read on for a 2017 overview of what Trump has done to dismantle Obama's regulatory legacy.

Health care
As a presidential candidate, Trump regularly promised to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act – keeping in line with other Republicans. Efforts to completely overhaul the 2010 law through Congress have thus far been unsuccessful. But piece by piece, Trump has managed to dismantle some controversial Obama-era initiatives.

It's gotta be tough for those biting their nose off to spite their face, you know, that old military thing about the perfect being the enemy of the good?

"Trump's not Good enough for me, he's a this, that, and the other, so #$%^ Him!"

How soon so many have forgotten the previous 8(000) years.

It's a good report and I think it's accurate.  If you read it, you will see that Trump does plan to get out of the Paris accord but is not legally able to do so until 2019.  Why ... I don't know, but Trump did not renege on that plan as has been speculated.

He wants to go after Sanctuary cities by withholding funds.  At this point in time, liberal judges have ruled against financial sanctions against these cities.

Other efforts by Trump have been thwarted by Congress or judges, but he's accomplished a lot.

I think Congress and some judges thought that Trump would be a colossal  failure and they would, therefore, be protected from any blowback from blocking his issues.

By now, it should have settled in that Trump is not a failure, colossal or otherwise, and blocking him may be dangerous for political futures.  He cannot replace all the judges with one wave of the hand but he is doing it as fast as he can.

I predict his second year in office will be even better as various groups and entities come to the bitter realization that, yes, Trump was elected, and yes, his programs are what people want.

That's right.

And it also explains the non-stop Democrat howling for impeachment.

They pretend to look down their noses at him as a lightweight, unfit for the job.

Truth is they're terrified of him.

They know full well what he's going to kick out from under them over the next 3 years, - huge chunks of their rent seeking, Kleptocrat butt covering, 'insurance policy' underwriting, career bureaucrats.

During the campaign I wrote here extensively about Donald Trump’s ability to learn quickly and adapt to new challenges. His first year as a politician proved my research into his personality and background was accurate. The man is a dynamo, a likable dynamo...that is of course unless you are a Leftist or assorted politically correct snowflake of the D or R variety—then, you just hate him.

Blatant butt-kissing.  How juvenile.

Illogical, counselor.

Butt-kissing is a behavior encountered with underlings who hope to win favor with the boss.

I, on the other hand, am not Donald Trump’s underling, I’m his employer, so to speak, a proud supporter of the job he’s doing as president representing my interests in good government.

Pardon me if I don’t criticize him 24/7 like you do. How juvenile of you.

Executive orders and memos aren't rolling anything back. They're placeholders till a democrat takes office and "rolls back" Trump's agenda.

Are you saying the President should have been as defeatist as you ... and left Obama's EO's in place??

[Emjay]

Yes, a change in regime would mean changes.  Just as Trump is rolling back much of Obama's over-reaching.

I'm wondering about you though.  It sounds as if you can't wait until a democrat takes office.  Am I reading you correctly?

[bilo]

You're right.

Tax reform was more good than bad, but because they had to do it through reconciliation it will expire in 2025(?). Obamacare is still on the books and if the Rats are in charge in 2025 you can bet it will not only be back, but they will "improve" it. Immigration reform hasn't gone anywhere yet and other than prototypes the wall hasn't been built. Is this Pres. Trump's fault? I don't think so. I think it is the Pub party's fault these things haven't been done and it will probably cost them the House.

As of now I still see no reason to support the Pub party with my donations, or my vote.

Have you anything, anything at all, to say about the information presented in the article on this thread?

So anyway:

Healthcare - yay

Immigration - Nothing actually done for a number of reasons no necessarily Trump's fault, so why list it?

Environment -
    CPP - Nothing actually done yet, so why list it?
    Paris Accord - Nothing actually done yet, so why list it?
    Remainder - yay

Trade -
    TPP - I think nothing actually has changed on this, but I may be wrong on that.
    NAFTA - ??  What happened with this?

Education - yay
    What happened with getting rid of Common Core and even possibly the Dept of Ed and giving states back sole control?

Net Neutrality - yay

Foreign Policy -
    Iran Deal - Hasn't really pulled out of it?  Why not?  He said it was a disaster.
    Cuba travel - whatev

Criminal Justice and Police -
    Sessions re-uped  on the confiscation of property from people charged, but not found guilty, of drug offenses.  That's total  bullshit and I am completely against that.
    Military equipment for police - No thank you.
