Eventually Trump will have to accomplish something as president. It will probably be legislation that Republicans pass in spite of his attempts to divide the party and destroy the GOP leadership in Congress. It's pretty clear he is not an Obama, Bush, Clinton, Reagan, or Carter, but it is not what he isn't that is important but rather what he is.I snatched this from my home forum from DFB...
It's so good..........
It's about Trumps lack of decorum, dignity and statesmanship.
My Leftist friends (as well as many ardent #NeverTrumpers) constantly ask me if I’m not bothered by Donald Trump’s lack of decorum. They ask if I don’t think his tweets are “beneath the dignity of the office.”
Here’s my answer:
We Right-thinking people have tried dignity. There could not have been a man of more quiet dignity than George W. Bush as he suffered the outrageous lies and politically motivated hatreds that undermined his presidency.
We tried statesmanship. Could there be another human being on this earth who so desperately prized “collegiality” as Ronald Reagan?
We tried propriety – has there been a nicer human being ever than Mitt Romney?
And the results were always the same. This is because, while we were playing by the rules of dignity, collegiality and propriety, the Left has been, for the past 60 years, engaged in a knife fight where the only rules are those of Saul Alinsky and the Chicago mob.

It is nothing but the incessant use of fake news (read: propaganda) that keeps the Left alive. Imagine, for example, if CNN had honestly and accurately reported then-candidate Barack Obama’s close ties to foreign terrorists (Rashid Khalidi), domestic terrorists (William Ayers), the mafia (Tony Rezko) or the true evils of his spiritual mentor, Jeremiah Wright’s church.
Imagine if they had honestly and accurately conveyed the evils of the Obama administration’s weaponizing of the IRS to be used against their political opponents or his running of guns to the Mexican cartels or the truth about the murder of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the Obama administration’s cover-up.
So, to my friends on the Left — and the #NeverTrumpers as well — do I wish we lived in a time when our president could be “collegial” and “dignified” and “proper”? Of course I do. These aren’t those times. This is war. And it’s a war that the Left has been fighting without opposition for the past 50 years.
So, say anything you want about this president - I get it - he can be vulgar, he can be crude, he can be undignified at times. I don’t care.

Evan Sayet - He Fights
Funny about them more eh? Anyways, Trump has no ideas. He had nod ieas. He was smashed in every debate. He promised the sky, yet has delivered nothing. ACA, his wall, and his tax reform, all lies. He wants to keep A A now, his tax plan is about as far from what he promised as it could be, and the wall? Yeah, right. Trump was not elected on ideas, Trump was elected as punishment. Trump is a message to bad people like dubya, Mr. Amnesty 2.0. Dubya oversaw the biggest termination of out rights then J.Edgar Hoover. His daddy signed some of the anti gun legislation there was and made NAFTA the way it is. Trump is going n over his head. He is better g tamed by the swamp. All Trump is to America is a place holder.
The one refreshing thing about Trump I like is that he is not a hypocrite. He doesn't excuse or try to hide the fact that he is completely immoral, lacks any understanding of government and has no idea how to accomplish anything that he has promised.
I would be good if he just destroyed the GOP as it is now. Far as leadership gos, there is none to destroy.
You are right about this....
We all hope Trump destroys the GOP
as we have known it...
It's full of no gut pussies afraid to fight...
We need to rid it of rinos..
We need more Warriors like Trump...
Or at least at a minimum try.
