Fake Leftist News.

I did like this comment, from the link, though...

Trump is doing some good things. The opposition claimed he would never be President , then when he was , that this will end in 6 months, and when it did not, set about Fake News and rumour and personal attacks on him and his family.
It is simply propaganda.

10. He enforced President Barack Obama’s red line against Syria’s use of chemical weapons.

9. He has taken a surprisingly tough line with Russia.

8. He recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Four American presidents promised to do it.

7. He withdrew from the Paris climate agreement. After George W. Bush pulled out of the disastrous Kyoto treaty, U.S. emissions went down faster than much of Europe. The same will be true for Trump’s departure from the Paris accord.

6. He got NATO allies to kick in $12 billion more toward our collective security.

5. He has virtually eliminated the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. Trump removed the constraints Obama placed on our military and let it drive the terrorists from their strongholds,

4. He admitted he was wrong on Afghanistan and reversed Obama’s disastrous withdrawal

3. He enacted historic tax and regulatory reform that has unleashed economic growth. Trump signed the first comprehensive tax reform in three decades and removed the wet blanket of Obama-era regulations smothering our economy. We are now heading into our third consecutive quarter of above 3 percent growth

2. He is installing conservative judges who will preside for decades. With his appointment of Neil M. Gorsuch, Trump secured a conservative majority on the Supreme Court, and he is moving at record pace to fill the federal appeals courts with young conservative judges

1. He, not Hillary Clinton, was inaugurated as president. Trump delivered the coup de grace that ended the corrupt, dishonest Clinton political machine.

There are many other significant achievements that did not make the top 10.

Trump has taken a clear, strong stand against the narco-dictatorship in Venezuela, and he renamed the “Asia-Pacific” the “Indo-Pacific” to include India in the larger task of preventing Chinese hegemony in Asia.

Trump has made clear that he is willing to use force to stop North Korea from deploying nuclear intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of destroying U.S. cities — which has prompted China to finally put real pressure on Pyongyang. We’ll see if it works.

The record of achievement suggests that, despite the noxious tweets and self-inflicted wounds emanating from the White House, Trump has the potential to become one of the most consequential conservative presidents in modern American history. The question is: Does all this good outweigh the bad?

The question is - did Obama do even one great thing by comparison. The answer is no.

“Does all this good outweigh the bad?”

What bad?
