In no particular order:

1) Hurricane Harvey
2) Afghanistan troop surge
3) DPRK missle launch
4) Congress returns next week
5) Sheriff Joe pardon
6) Getting supporters elected in House and Senate races in 2018
7) There's always that pesky "Russia thing"
8) Funding for "the wall"
9) Tax reform

Bon Appetite!

I'm sure there are a few omissions.

Don't worry, Mexico is going to pay for all of it.

1) FEMA

* shrug... = Not his problem

But yeah...there are other issues Trump has to deal with...well, not exactly "deal with". He has people to do the actual work. He makes the decisions, though.

Tillerson and Mattis seem to be keeping their cards close. Good to see you are happy with the decisions to date, cheers!

I support government people who don't blab about what they are "going to do" when it comes to dealing with other countries and our issues with them. Seems that would discourage deal-making. So yeah...State, DoD, Commerce, Treasury and Trade SHOULD be keeping their cards close. On the other hand, all of them HAVE made statements and taken actions that give indications what sort of tactics and directions they are going in to deal with NK, among other places.

Probably the most important thing on Trump's plate right now, though, is China. Our dealings with them impact much more than just trade between our two countries.
 
Trump is doing a great job escalating the situation in North Korea. They've never fired a missile over Japan before. All the tough talk is working great.

Not true, they did back in 1998, but yeah I get your point.

Are you voting for war?

And BTW, the 'stans, are strategic because they are smuggling routs for drugs, nuclear dirty bomb material, terrorists, and a safe haven for terrorist training. There is more going on over there than civilized people can imagine.
 
Are you voting for war?

No, I didn't vote for Trump so I didn't vote for war with NK thank you. Trump seems more than happy to escalate it to that point though.
 
And yet, still plenty of time to tweet about cable news... He treats the presidency like a babysitting job. He's an immature teenager who hopefully won't **** everything up before the adults come home.
