Terrific list. Actually quite amazing considering the constant negativity he is subjected to by democrats, Hollywood, news media and even some (RINOs) in his own party.
And remember this. Just because liberals disagree with many of these or downplay them as accomplishments (border wall, benefiting pro-life agenda, conservative judges, embassy move to Jerusalem) means nothing. These are things his supporters want. Obama’s major “accomplishment”, Obamacare, was not supported by any conservative, yet it is his big-deal so-called accomplishment.
Thank you very much!
We should print a few copies of the list, and leave them in various places for people to pick up.
I plan to see the Harriet Tubman movie. I’m going to print business cards noting that she was a gun-totin’ Republican and leave them around the theater, in the restroom, etc.
