I would disagree and say he's been extremely effective. Whilst I don't agree with EVERYTHING he's done of course, a lot of it is looking up.

Of course I'm still waiting on replacements (promised) for certain things that have been repealed.

Typically think it's crude to judge a president 6 days in but he is doing work for sure.

Effectively writing executive orders---Hey I thought your ilk hated those things. What gives?

I guess you were against them before you were for them :roll:
 
This is only Day 3 of Trump's first work-week in office. It's more than a little premature to be judging him the "worst President ever!" And more than a little unreasonable and a lot silly. :roll:

I don't know what "your ilk" means but I never personally said I was against an executive order, although in some circumstances they are not necessary or inappropriate. In cases where Trump has used the EO inappropriately I disagree with him.

He's fulfilling more campaign promises than even I expected of him, honestly. Regardless of if you're a partisan or don't like Trump it's hard calling him a liar in this respect.

Worst ever? Can't tell yet as we have to see what the FULL EFFECTS of his decisions come into play. Is he setting himself up to be? IMO yes. But it will take years before that can be said for sure.

I'd say he is certainly sowing the seeds.
 
Meanwhile, daily death by a million paper cuts.

He's not supposed to act like a dictator. I hope you understand that.

Oh, please. I'm hoping, actually, that he takes some of those EOs to Congress to make them law as time goes on. And remember, he learned from a guy who told us, "I've got a pen and a phone."

Speaking of phone

https://www.wired.com/2017/01/trump-android-phone-security-threat/

Even if you’re not a security expert, some potential dangers of keeping an insecure device in the White House probably come to mind right away. There’s a reason President Obama had to make do with a heavily modified BlackBerry for most of his time in office, and why security officials reportedly issued Trump a locked-down device when he took office. One that he apparently doesn’t always use. If Trump does use his old Android smartphone in his spare time—which recent @realDonaldTrump tweets sent from Android seems to support—he’s leaving himself exposed to all manner of unsavory outcomes.

I didn't have real high hopes for him, as I was mostly trying to stop Hillary. But having said that, I am impressed that he is actually keeping his promises. Clearly his detractors were correct, he is no politician.

Why is a person that keeps his promises a nightmare?

Let's see...maybe because we are not a dictatorship.

Oh you mean he isn't supposed to be like Obama

With his I have a pen and a phone?

Guess you guys should have thought that his attitude would then follow on to the next guy

Welcome to the revolution......congress? Who needs them? With EO's presidents no longer have to legislate

Now they can play dictator in some things....payback is a bitch isn't it?

Typical petty response I would expect from a Right Winger.

Well, your lips are so firmly planted on one of Trump's butt cheeks, I expect that from you.
