Donald Trump Has Done An Amazing Job At His Most Important Job

Looking at it objectively, as a guy who opposed Trump until he dispatched Ted Cruz, I have to consider all the facts and ponder the evidence carefully before awarding Donald Trump the grade of A+. He has done an incredible job of doing exactly what I had hoped he would do in the off chance he defeated that naggy harridan and her corps of gender indeterminate hipsters, coastal snobs, race hustlers, aspiring libfascists, media scum, and wussy pseudo-conservatives terrified that a Hillary loss would mean people might expect them to do more than wear bow ties and go on NPR to prattle about Burke in their high-pitched, nasal voices.

There can be no serious debate. Donald Trump has done a truly outstanding job of not being Hillary Clinton.

His not being Hillary Clinton was and remains my sole expectation of Donald Trump’s presidency. Nothing else matters in the end; it is enough that Trump foiled Felonia von Pantsuit’s creepy scheme to subjugate forever the deplorable mass of normal people she despises. The Obamacare repeal, tax reform, plus appointees of the quality of Gorsuch, Mattis and McMaster, and his lower court appointments – the inexplicable and damn-well-better-be-corrected-if-Trump-doesn’t-want-a conservative-rebellion omission of Justice Don Willett not withstanding – are merely icing on the red velvet cake of Trump’s not-being-Hillaryhood.

In fact, the only thing keeping me from giving him an A++ is that Trump has unforgivably failed to point toward his zipper and invite the liberal establishment and their panty-twisted Fredocon houseboyz to “Obstruct this!”

Now, that is not to say there have not been challenges, but we must be careful not to confuse the lies of the media and their Democrat masters, repeated by the Never Trumper geek chorus, with problems Trump himself caused.

Here’s the brutal reality: No matter what Trump does, he will always be evil, awful, criminal, and/or treasonous. It doesn’t matter if he does something good. It’s doesn’t matter if Obama famously did the same thing – or worse. It doesn’t matter if it’s an outright and obvious lie. It will never stop. The soft coup plotters’ plan is to generate a constant barrage of bullSchumer designed to eventually browbeat the weak-hearted among the GOP into going along with their impeachment scheme as the first step on the road to the left retaking power and consolidating it so that we normals can never again have our voices heard.

If you want to blame Trump for the phony “controversy” surrounding him, ask yourself – what actions could he take that would stop the liberal feeding frenzy? Be nicer and gentler and act like “the bigger man? Worked great for W.

Puh-leeze.

You fall into their trap when you buy into the characterization of Trump himself being responsible for what is an organized conspiracy to delegitimize him. They want you to think that. They want you to think that where there’s smoke there’s fire. They want you to think “Gosh, Trump has to be doing something wrong if so many of the conventionally pretty TV people and my dying morning newspaper keep saying he is.”

But it isn’t true. It’s nonsense. It’s a fraud. It’s a steaming pile of Harry Reid.

Ask yourself: If Trump did not collude with the Russians, what would happen? He’d deny it – Trump has. He’d hit back – Trump has. And no evidence of actual wrong doing would leak out after nearly a year of investigations – and none has, as even that wizened crone Diane Feinstein and that gold standard of stupidity Maxine Waters have been forced to admit.

Now ask yourself: If Trump did collude with the Russians, what would happen? Well, we’d see a zillion leaks about the damning evidence from the intelligence community, and currently unemployed nut job James Comey would have been pressing for indictments. Those things haven’t happened.

Gee, the facts are perfectly in synch with these allegations not being true, and utterly at odds with the allegations being true. Since liberals believe in science and evidence and stuff, I guess there’s only one rational, reasonable conclusion we can draw:

TRUMP IS A TREASONOUS TRAITOR OF TREASON AND HE MUST BE IMPEACHED AND STRAIGHTFORWARD FROM HERE HILLARY MUST BE SWORN IN AND THAT UNICORN IN MY CLOSET KEEPS WATCHING ME, JUDGING ME!

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!

Just watch how Robert Mueller becomes part of the conspiracy when he comes back with nothing on the President. The left will 180 its attitude toward him even faster than it did toward Comey when that towering dork got canned.

There are things Trump can do better, like getting some appointments made of loyalists who share his vision. His loyalists been shut out, and the Never Trumpers have been invited in. Apparently their high principles lasted until Election Day when they finally accepted the fact that Jeb! was never going to be president of anything except his extensive stuffed bunny collection.

Allowing his friends and conservatives to get shafted is a grave error. It will haunt Trump. His embrace of enemies by giving them a chance to betray him will dishearten and drive away the loyal. For example, why are Trump and every single White House rival of Reince Priebus getting trashed by leaks to Maggie Haberman & Co. at the New York Times, but never Reince? I guess none of those disloyal anonymous leakers ever says anything bad about Reince because he’s so gosh-darned squared away.

Yeah, that’s it. Or every night Reince lies in his bed on his tummy wearing a floral bathrobe with a One Direction poster on the wall, kicking his feet in the air, holding his pink rotary dial phone, exclaiming, “Hey Maggs, do I ever have some dish for you!”

Trump needs to start rewarding loyalty while punishing disloyalty, do some housecleaning, and get himself a competent Chief of Staff who is focused on running the staff instead of running his mouth to the enemy. Otherwise, the President needs to simply drive on. Every day Trump stays in office is another day Hillary is not in office. And that’s a win.

——a truly outstanding job of not being Hillary Clinton.——

However, the ultimate solution to the persistent hillary problem is her death. Absent that the problem will persist and fester

President Trump greatest failing to date has been the slow speed at which he is clearing out the debris left behind by Obama. They simply cannot be trusted. Demwits put Party over country. Always have, at least today’s Dem. Time to “clean out the barn and take out the trash” as Ross Perot said. Just do it.

You are obviously not getting it that the rats and your kind, which are the #Never Trumpers have thrown huge boulders in his path that he must overcome first.

What do you mean by “your kind?” I have been a Trump $upporter since Cruz dropped out. I’m hardly the only one to comment on his slow ejection of Dems from Washington. He needs to get rid of every man/woman/ and he/she that is still in charge of anything. They cannot be trusted.

Seems some pissant of a no name, blackrobed, tyrant has usurped President Trump’s power to set immigration policy. Why is Trump allowing this?

Your post sure doesn't look like it. Perhaps you should rephrase it. You are obviously not getting it that the Rats have put huge boulders in his road. So far he has not even been able to put his entire cabinet together, which is a shame, but not his fault.

Yes I agree he needs get rid of the rats that are still in his administration. The sooner the better, because like you said: THEY CAN NOT BE TRUSTED.

Nothing wrong with you having been a Cruz supporter. Although I had nothing against him I did not vote for him in our Tennessee primaries. I also did not vote for for Donald Trump in our primaries, but I sure did in the general election on November 8, 2016, because I always vote for the Republican nominee and have done so since the 1980 general election when Ronald Reagan was the nominee and I voted for him. I voted for President Reagan again when he ran for reelection in 1984, but this time both in the primaries and the general election. I did the same with President Bush43 in the 2000 election and 2004 election. I will do the same, God willing. When he runs for reelection in 2020.

It is important though, that we must concentrate on the 2018 midterm election and make sure that we not only keep the majority in Congress, but increase it and make the rat party the minority party for generations to come.

Oh, I dunno. Maybe, just maybe, it will be like what usually happens when Trump is challenged. The media says he's dumb and beaten and then he somehow turns it into a win...by having given the judges enough rope to hang themselves. Judicial censure and possible disbarment come to mind.

Close, but the proper response is:

I wish I had written this.

You will, James, you will.

Yes, I’m aware of the stumbling blocks Dems have placed. They have fought the President every step of the way, and will continue to do so. However, there are approximately 3600 “appointees” that a President can remove and fill upon taking office. These posts need to be filled immediately with people that can be trusted. And that rules out ALL Democrats. If nothing else Pres. Trump needs to remove these underlings and worry about replacing them later. Just flush the SOBs right the hell out!

You will, James, you will.

So, in other words, you DID write it. Just not yet...
