Briboy: "I'll agree that some of his tweets are not needed, quite silly and ill-advised, but that's who the man is. I kinda like it. He goes over the top of an over 90% liberal media to reach the American people. CNN and MSNBC have been exposed as liars, conspiracy theorist, and hearsay artists. Anything goes with these folks, and CNN is so terribly redundant, night after night of the same crap. Who idiots are they trying to reach?"

What weird place do you call home. No one lie's more than Trump. No one has more "conspiracy theorist" than Trump. No one has more "hearsay artists" than Trump and no one is more "terribly redundant, night after night of the same crap" than Trump. So who's idiots are you trying to reach?????????????????

Well, he has raised the debt faster than anyone in history. Just what you republicans love, more debt.

"I bet you believed them before November of 2016."

The polls had Hillary by 3 points. That's pretty close to how much she won by. The fact is that getting the most votes doesn't make you president in this country, but you can't blame pollsters for that.

By the way

"and I want my country back, working again, and thriving, and that means all of us, excluding people like the elderly and disabled whom we are compassionate to take care of, but not illegal immigrants and loafers, and mothers who have 6 kids and 6 different fathers. "

Why not just go full racist while you're at it? You guys don't need dog whistles these days. Use your bullhorn. You won.

Briboy, read one of Thiessen's links in his positives ..
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-10-best-things-trump-has-done-in-his-first-year-in-office/2017/12/27/c79ce93c-ea7e-11e7-9f92-10a2203f6c8d_story.html?utm_term=.7837d2b3193f ..
for Trump .. excerpt ..

When President Barack Obama committed the troops, about 3,500 in all, to Europe last February, then followed up with additional commitments to NATO over the summer, they were a bipartisan expression of support for U.S. allies at a moment of heightened fear about Russia.

Now, however, they are coming despite the White House, not because of it. Eastern European ­nations say they fully trust Washington’s commitments — but the jubilation of the summer has been replaced by concern over Trump’s overtures to Russian President Vladimir Putin. NATO leaders acknowledge that the alliance will be rocked if Trump abandons the troop deployments.

The uncertainty has led to an unusual gap between Trump’s rhetoric and that of nearly the entire military establishment underneath him.

Hardly a plus for Trump.

On some of Thiesson's others pluses for Trump - Obama had long pushed for more involvement by ME countries toward ME peace, and more
contribution by NATO countries in it's purpose. Also, Obama always supported NATO and the UN while Trump has rubbished both of them.

I fail to see any positives around recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital, as protests broke out, ..

and Trump's intention to move the US embassy there ..

As suggested by others in reply to yours, your economy is riding on Obama's efforts, and the effect of Trump's tax cuts are arguable. Note also a recovery worldwide is underway.

Also note one of Trump's most negative contributions.

Pruitt's cutting back on anti-pollution regulation (if lasting) will inarguably have long-term negative effects on the health of American children.

Noted also: America's respectability status worldwide has plummeted.

On balance it's hard to see Trump as a positive.

Good to see you alive and well, too.
