That is a load of BS. In the first place, he has already had a “lasting positive effect” on this country. If Hillary had been elected the makeup of the Supreme Court would already have been altered in a way that would have already fatally wounded the future of our Republic. President Trump has already saved us from that.
As far as forming a “coalition that passes meaningful legislation”... The coalition is in place... its called the Republican Party. President Trump has bent over backwards trying to appease these RINO back stabbers but they will use any excuse in the book to not do what nearly all of them have promised to do. They can either grow some spines and start working for the country's best interest or face the wrath of the American public starting in 2018. Congress has a president who has signaled that he will sign just about anything that they send to him. They have got a blank check, they know it and they are blowing it.
I see President Trump fighting every single day to move things forward. And then I see our congressional leadership doing less than nothing. And you are blaming President Trump for this??? Because he hurt their feelings during the election? You have got to be kidding me! Wake up man!
Not doing the same damage as Hillary is NOT a lasting positive effect. There’s a difference between avoiding a negative and actually making a positive.
He spent the whole primaries burning his bridge with the GOP. And done nothing since then to put any back. Functionally right now he’s an independent, alone in DC. There won’t be any 2018 backlash. Who are disaffected Trump supporters going to vote for? Democrats? Tea Party 2: This Time We’ll Actually Do Something? Congress has an over 90% return rate, meaning the vast majority of the folks Trump isn’t getting along with now will be sworn in again in 2019.
I see Trump spinning his wheels and making sure his enemies stay his enemies. He needs to remember how he build his empire and start making deals. Congress can wait him out, he’s term limited, they aren’t.
