    Not our fault Trump can't put together a coalition to pass legislation. Nobody trusts Trump - that's his fault. No one else's.

    Trump spends most of his time fending off legal attacks from the democrats

    If nothing gets done its your fault not his

    The GOP had unified control of the executive and legislative branches. Don't blame Dems if they couldn't agree on what to do with that power.

    Well...........when he starts to respect Congress' duties and rights of oversight Congress will not need to force the issue.

    You do know Dems are just representing the wishes of the majority when they oppose Don, right?

    NO - Trump WASTES his time yelling at every dog in the yard. Real Presidents put on their big boy pants and move forward by building coalitions to get legislation enacted ... but then again, Trump has fired or chased off the team that put together his tax reform bill, so it's not surprising he get's nothing done.

    Not to mention he has no interest in governing with the majority's wishes or compromise in mind. He governs with his base in mind and only his base.

    Trump is a Mistakenly-Elected AMATEUR, who has no idea what he is doing.

    Anybody even close to representing an "Adult in the Room" has long since abandoned Trump's Ongoing Trainwreck.

    IN 1957 our cars were suicide traps with unpadded dashes, bullet steering wheels and tons of gas gobbling pollution spewing out the exhaust. Big industrialized cities like Cleveland, Pittsburg, Chicago, and Gary were unlivable garbage cans with air unfit to breathe. Dentist offices were medieval torture chambers filled with screaming kids. Cancer and heart attacks, along with other incurable diseases were death sentences. A big TV was a black and white console with a 21 inch screen. And a lot more.

    Having said all that, these are material things that ignore spiritual and social elements. In that department, we're not doing so hot. We are disjointed nation and mad as hell about everything. That's not so hot either. Still, I'd rather be a product of today, rather than sixty years ago.

    BS it's not the Democrats fault. You've been bound and determined to keep Trump from doing anything from day one the unholy coalition of Dems and neo cons would rather destroy the country than let trump have any success at all.

    You're following a pattern of other Trumpists who demand ideological purity to the moving target of Don's ideology (which basically is all about what works best for him) and throw anyone who deviates from it under the bus.

    If congressional Repubs aren't crazy enough to follow Don's every whim they are considered a disgrace by cultists.

    Every President has to deal with the opposition party - successful Presidents find ways to build coalitions. Moronic twits stand around blaming everyone but themselves.

    Your post is like the Catholic maga hat teens/native american fiasco which was frantically driven by the left wing media.....simply untrue. Just more parroting of radical left wing rhetoric. You are driven by your own false scenario. You can't make yourself crazy and then blame it on Trump. Well, maybe you can. But it doesn't buy you any credibility.

    Poor little Trump Child. No other President has had to deal with an opposition party ... poor little, rich kid. Life just isn't fair ...


    Gods, we've elected a Drama Queen, not a President.

    The popular vote means nothing, is invalid, and the majority of the votes came from the state of California through illegal means.

    Obama had to deal with 4 years of Benghazi investigations - he was able to compartmentalize that.
    Clinton had to deal with 8 years of Whitewater investigations, AND an impeachment ... he still built coalitions with Congress.

    Trump is just a child emotionally.

    Oh give it a rest you all bitched like hell when Limbaugh said he wanted Obama to fail. This is o damn different only the people opposing Trump at any cost are in position to make that actually happen. However glib you are however willing you are to deal if your opposite numbers would rather die first there isn't a lot you can do.

    Both had people on the opposite side who were willing to cut a deal. Trump does not.
