Bit by bit, Trump methodically undoing Obama policies
AP ^ | April 3, 2017 | DARLENE SUPERVILLE

Amid the turmoil over staff shake-ups, blocked travel bans and the Russia cloud hanging overhead, President Donald Trump is steadily plugging away at a major piece of his agenda: Undoing Obama.

From abortion to energy to climate change and personal investments, Trump is keeping his promises in methodically overturning regulations and policies adopted when Barack Obama was president.

It hasn't all been smooth sailing.

Trump recently failed to fulfill his pledge to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, which continues to stand as Obama's most recognizable domestic policy achievement. Trump and House Speaker Paul Ryan couldn't persuade enough fellow Republicans to back new health care legislation last month. Ryan pulled the measure just before a scheduled House vote.

Trump has had better outcomes in other areas.

Obama’s “transformation” may not be able to withstand Pres. Trump’s “revolution.” God is good and has answered the prayers of His people.

Notice that whiney AP hack Darlene Superville doesn’t use the correct term ‘President Trump’.

The "big meme" of the last couple of days has been "Trump has collapsed, he's a lame duck, he's not getting anything done."

This story says he's getting a lot done: he's cleaning up Obama's mess at a rapid rate (Obama had eight years to make his mess, Trump's been in office exactly one-fifth of a year today; that's a ratio of 40:1).

The MSM-Democrats are talking out of both sides of their mouths but that's nothing new.

Whatever moves the agenda forward, that's "the news."

While Democrats and you at the AP run around screaming like your hair is on fire and looking for a Russian under every bed.

AND in 8 years from now, after Mike Pence wins in 2024 the democrats will still be mumbling about Russians and emails. One thing I will take particular joy in knowing is the old timer hardcore libs like Reid, Hillary, Shumer, Pelosi, Waters will all die a thousand deaths as they watch their progressive utopia (of which they completely isolate themsleves) be dismantled bit by bit. They will remain angry and unhappy to the bitter end.

Darlene is just another nobody ‘reporter’ who came on the ‘scene’ in 2009 from New Jersey - because she was black and America had a ‘black’ President.

Her plaints before Obama were unremarkable, unremarkable during his tenure, and nothing but wistfully vindictive afterwards. Her color now isn't her career guarantor so the thing to do is just join the fray and lash out wherever liberals can lash out.

COMMENTARY: Welcome to Trumpland, where the president enjoys the upper hand

The Las Vegas Review-Journal ^ | March 31, 2017 | Wayne Allyn Root

Liberals are delusional. They are so hysterical over President Donald Trump that they’ve convinced themselves they’re winning.

This is hilarious. Trump is destroying them every single day and they’re too blind, deaf and arrogant to notice.

Don’t look now, but Trump has ‘em right where he wants ‘em.

Who are they, you might ask? Critics, cynics, naysayers, the biased liberal media, Obama Kool-Aid drinkers, George Soros’s socialist cabal, government employees and all the Israel haters of the left.

These groups are so delusional they don’t even know the president is wiping away Barack Obama’s agenda and policies as if they never existed. Obama is being erased from the record books.

In only a few days … while liberals sat around gloating over the “failure” of the Obamacare repeal … Trump changed the direction of America. Trump did more in this time than most presidents do in a four-year term.

And wait, Obamacare’s repeal is coming, too. What happened to Trump Care was a short-term blip. Trump is relentless. Trump is the poster boy for relentless. More on that in a minute....

AP believes the undoing of the Obama agenda is bad, so they're screaming it from the mountain tops, hoping it will alarm the masses.

Not a peep on the Susan Rice story, though, as far as I can see.

Thanks be to God for this miracle. Pray without ceasing that God will bless President Donald Trump, Vice President Michael Pence, their staff, families, and team with grace and mercy, wisdom, understanding, and knowledge to lead this nation in the way we should go to please God.

Undoing EO’s is great. I do want more to be done via Congress and making things law. Obama proved that being too excessive with the EO’s does not build a foundation for legacy, they can be, too easily, undone.

Trump’s doing just fine. The Congress should have done their job and repealed and replaced Ocare.
