    Has Trump actually achieved much of what he set out to do yet?

    Most seam to be focussing on the collusion issue or stupid shit he said but what has he actually managed to do with regards to policy and how has it affected peoples lives?

    I am interested in real answers that are not emotive rants about division and feelings.

    For example only : Cancelled Obamacare = 20-24 million people now uninsured but 20-24 million other people with reduced cover at higher rates now returned to maximum cover at lower rates. (that is a fictional example by the way I have no idea of the facts hence the question)

    Can anybody help with that? or is the answer simply not much too soon to tell?

        Other than play musical chairs with his cabinet the answer is Jack shit. He has done absolutely nothing.

          Going on the logic that the President is responsible for everything that happens under his watch, NYC tourism is up, Stock Market is way up, Obamacare enrollments are way up, GDP growth of 3%: http://nypost.com/2017/11/11/turns-o...ricas-economy/

            Don't forget filling the SC vacancy.

            On top of that he signed a VA reform bill.

            And he's gotten rid of a ton of regulations. Imo, that is contributing to the rise in GDP.

                He has filled a lot of positions, but generally in a way that is counterproductive to that position.

                He definitely has been trying to get rid of regulations, such as regulations that protect us from having our drinking water poisoned.

                  That depends on your views.

                  If you want bureaucracies to grow and grow, I can see why you would think that. If you think they are too big and intrusive and thus need to be shrank, then he's actually being productive.

                  Get real.

                  You can do better than copy-and-pasting DNC talking points.

                    Meh, fuck it, I don't know why I bother with you. Yes, Trump is trying to poison us all. So are the evil corporations that produce our drinking water. Like the City of Detroit, the City of Los Angeles, the City of New York, ad nauseum. So are the evil corporations that make the $12 billion industry of selling you water bottled from municipal sources.
                    Consider for a moment that there is no meme about brown-haired, brown-eyed step children.

                      You're a fucking dumbass. Any of those corporations you like taking it up the ass from would be more than happy to dump poison in the water just to save a few pennies. It's not a theoretical debate you fucktard it's already been proven.

                      Why is it republicans claim to be for small government and yet seem to be ok with big corporations doing the exact same shit they bitch about the government doing??

                        How is it any less bureaucratic to appoint positions based purely to enhance your own agenda??

                          Let me try again, and I'll put the point on its own line, big and bold, so you can't skip past it. Ready?

                          Urban and suburban water supplies are government-controlled resources.
                          (Check your water bill, if you don't believe me. Oops, I mean, check your mom's water bill, if you don't believe me)

                          We'll add economics to the list of things you don't understand, and reinforce reading comprehension as one of the skills you don't have.

                            Submessenger said it pretty good.

                            You obviously don't understand what bureaucracy is either.

                              True-ish story, this is from memory, and I can't be bothered to provide citations because bnet.

                              In the run-up to the 2005 hurricane season, the South Florida Water Management District, in conjunction with the Army Corps of Engineers, decided it would be prudent to significantly reduce the level of Lake Okeechobee, the primary source of fresh water for the surrounding counties. They did, and while we did have one major hurricane (Wilma), there was a severe drought of rain for the next several years. Water rationing was put into effect, and that was the norm for a couple of years, until the government bean counters did the math, and figured out that the restrictions on water usage were hurting the poor widdle government books. So, they lifted the restrictions.

                              Also, dumbass bnet, how do you think things like naegleria fowleri and anatoxin-a get out of the water before it passes your lips? Do you really think that the government just charges you to hook up to a lake or aquifer?

                                Bnet is 40-ish, no?
