Executive success is right on target. He's had a YUGE amount of executive ordersl. I am glad he was never critical of and never tweeted about Obama's executive orders.

We hate our executive orders. Wait, we love our executive orders.




Well, i'm sure you disagree, but it's about what those EO's do. Trump's EO's largely dealt with deregulation and job growth. Obama's EO's were more about expanding the power of the federal government over the people, and paying back political favors.

If you like small government and jobs, then Trump is a success.
If you love subjugation, less freedom, and political cronyism, then Trump is a failure.

Obama got a Nobel Peace Prize before he did anything in office! It was based on...what? I'm really curious.


You got me friend...I think it was based on his being the first black president of the world's lone super power....I don't think it was based on any idea of "peace" because we were at war at the time...it was an incredible display of outright stupidity...what was it, about 90 days in???

I don't know about legislation but his major successes are

1) Gorsich
2) Job Growth
3) Backing out of Obama's horrendous trade deals
4) Deregulation

Just a few in broad terms. We get it, you libs are going to bitch and complain because Obamacare wasn't repealed and there is no wall. You libs will continue to bitch and complain when Obamacare is repealed and there is a wall. Notice anything? The only thing you libs have left are bitching and complaining. Gonna be a stressful 8 years for you guys.

You do know that Presidents do not pass legislation, Congress does, right?

Actually, I am not sure. It was early, though. And, in fairness, they(The committee) gave it to him, so it was not his "fault" (Bad word, but the only one i could think of)he got it. It's not like he got up and said he deserved it.

He is head of the executive branch, not the legislative branch

You appear to know not the difference. Once again confirming to all that you attended Ole Miss.

Which he didn't do.

If he had asked for it, or said he deserved it, I could send criticism in his direction. As far as I know, you don't submit your own name for the award, though, so it is hard to criticize him for what somebody else decides to honor him for.

I voted for him twice and I was amazed when it happened....there really was no justification for it...especially considering that we were at war at the time....under no circumstance should the leader of a nation at war, for any reason, be awarded a peace prize....

I suppose he could have turned it down or something but I get the impression that he was as shocked as anyone. It is a truly bizarre episode and ripe for the tin foil hat community to make hay of.....

I would have thought getting a solid conservative Supreme Court justice confirmed would have made the 100 days accomplishment list.

That is probably the most long lasting accomplishment so far....

That whole list except for the regulatory stuff is crap and is based on how he "feels." There is no substance behind any of it.

I'm happy about Gorsuch, but if he has the Senate and they did the nuclear option, he could have gotten anyone through.

I want Trump to be successful. But, his first 100 days have not been that by any stretch of the imagination.

This guy would have been happy with a potato if it weren't Hillary. That's fine. I'm glad Hillary isn't president as well. But, don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining.

The author meant to write a provocative article.

Judging by your response, he was wildly successful.

Word is that they will move forward on Ocare replacement by the official 100 day anniversary but I don't want to jinx it.

On second thought...I can't jinx it because if Ryan and them don't DO SOME WORK already they will lose their positions.
