In today's world "governing" means going along with the establishment, something I'm glad DJT doesn't know how to do. His next job is to turn the crowd against any Republicans that stand in his way. 2018 can't come quickly enough.

He made few promises, and only swore a few solemn oaths during his election. And those promises are what got him elected.

Hold firm on immigration
Build that Wall

This Goodwin guy runs his business on emotions, rather than facts.

An article about Trump, his goals and the word “wall” appears zero times. NY claptrap.

I agree.

The way he works the Left using the technology that they claim to “pwn” and forces the traitors on the Right to expose themselves to the voters is proof that he can govern in the 21st century—where politicians try to steer us into R vs D when the real fight is between Nationalists vs Transnationalists/Globalists/Progressives/Communists.

In government, as in most things, WHAT is more important than HOW.

The feds have been doing the wrong thing (”WHAT”) for decades. It really doesn’t matter HOW you do the wrong thing.

Trump has the RIGHT things (”WHAT”) in mind. HOW (governance and implementation) will come in time - Trump is a smart and quick learner.

Where would Trump be today if he had not done what he did as a candidate. Assume he was elected but chose a different governing path (go along to get along) up until today. Where would he be??? Would the media be singing his praises????

He is taking the only path he can. Twitter has actually been his salvation in governing and keeping the wolves at least at bay. IMO.

Exactly! The establishment’s efforts to sabotage President Trump’s agenda have come with every kind of imaginary complaint they can think of. Most of us who live in the real world wish they would find another country or another planet.

I don''t know, but from where I sit he's doing just fine. 3.1% growth this last quarter and the MSM didn't even blink an eye. Even though Obama rarely had 2%.

Sometimes on I82 and I90 it seems like it's wall to wall trucks.

I have not seen any of it, but it is very disheartening to think more Americans are okay with this disgusting anti-Americanism.

The Headline is ignorant.

The GOPe is going to give Trump practically NO legislative victories fullfill his promises and the people (meaning his base and populists) will throw the bums out next year.

The trick is to primary the necessary scumbags and keep a majority in Congress and the Senate who will not betray the people who put them there.

It's not all up to Trump, he needs us.
The globalists have only proved what they are.

It's a whole lot like the NFL, again, the headline is ignorant.

Agreed. This article smell like more b/s from “establishment” thinking. IMO, America is very lucky to have Trump in there.

Fans that actually go to games are just too addicted to care.

I believe the NFL IS going to suffer for their treason because television viewership is going to drop the most.
