You're dam right it was. He has kept more promises than any other President in U.S. History. DS> So, what does he do but appoint a Secrtary of Education who has been DS> on record as being for private schools instead of supporting public DS> education. Has she done so during her post as Secretary of Education? All you can say is what she allegedly done on a former post. DS> GD> while America's DS> GD> infrastructure has fallen into disrepair and decay. DS> DS> And his grand plan for infrastructure has never even gotten started. He is not a dictator - where as he can't do the infrastructure on his own, he needs Nancy and Chuck to stop conspiring behind his back and work with the President to get this infrastructure completed. DS> Tell that to the farmers who have lost much because of his implusive DS> trade tariffs. Or the American public who has to pay what amounts to a DS> tax for his tariffs on imported goods. You really need to stop watching the likes of CNN and MSNBC, the money that has been coming from the tariffs has been provided to the farmers.

Why the knock-offs, these people are riding the coat tails of Trump for their own fiscal gain. DS> Not that much.

Trump is increasing the DS> debt with his tax cuts and other things to the point where the credit DS> rating may again be lowered. Do let me know when this happens, until then just enjoy the efforts of the President. DS> I have as good a clue as anyone who follows the news, including DS> pronouncements by Trump -- e.g. downplaying windmills because they don't DS> work when the wind does not blow, and because they kill birds, etc. Or DS> the proposals to allow oil exploration in pristine Alaska protected DS> areas. Would you rather return on being dependent on a foreign land for oil and natural gas. I am sure you are old enough to remember the gas crisis of the 70's is that want you want to return to?
