Byron York: Amid firestorms, Trump has year of solid policy accomplishments. Can he keep going?
by Byron York | Dec 17, 2017, 9:27 PM

Something is happening in the final days of 2017. People are noticing that Donald Trump has gotten a lot done in his tumultuous first year in the White House.

Assume that tax reform passes and is signed into law. If in, say, 2014, a Republican, of either the conservative or moderate variety, predicted that in 2017 a newly-elected GOP president and Congress would —

    Cut corporate and individual taxes.
    Repeal the Obamacare individual mandate.
    Appoint a highly-respected conservative to the Supreme Court.
    Appoint a one-year record number of judges to the circuit courts.
    Get rid of reams of unnecessary regulations.
    Destroy ISIS.
    Approve pipeline projects and new oil drilling.

-- then a lot of Republicans would probably have cheered. Loudly.

It's true. For all of the drama and dumb-ass Tweets (and assuming that Congress manages to get a tax bill to his desk), Trump can point to a solid record of accomplishment this year.

“Cut individual taxes”??  Nope.  There’ll be an increase in tax for a huge number of individuals.

Far more than I would've thought possible, considering the MSM and frauds in his own party 'backing him up'.
