85 days straight of winning . . .
Stand shoulder to shoulder with him in the breach on a daily basis...trust his instincts and his judgement and never ever underestimate him.”

AMEN!
I actually have not read ‘Art of the Deal’ but definitely need to...
it’s more about watching his behavior...you can see he’s a tactical as well strategic thinker that understands how to solve problems (business, people, etc.)...many domestic and foreign issues can be defined mainly within a business and people problem construct...
to me, Trump focuses on getting to the core issue and working backwards from there...the people around him, for the most part, think this way as well...just my .02

Love it :)
Thanks for posting this list of what Trump does while our pearl clutchers and Never Trumpsters say Trump has let them down and hasn’t done anything positive:
“Let’s use the Syrian strike as our center of gravity since that’s been the main subject of discussion across the nation...both here on FR, in the media, and everywhere in between...in the past I’ve noticed that when something like an airstrike happens, everything else stalls and stands still...that’s what is expected because that’s how things have always been done...well, if you know anything about Trump then you know that norms do not apply; in fact they’re completely ignored and put out to pasture...he’s exhibited this behavior over and over again...I really like to watch it in action because all of the usual suspects are looking and talking about what’s happening over there, while Trump and his team are pursuing multiple outcomes in another set of places...
In a few days on either side of the strike on Syria, the following actions\sprints were being run by the Trump WH
- Executive Order freeing up the Arctic and offshore areas for energy exploration (Energy Sprint, Economic Sprint)
- Golf with Senator Paul around healthcare (Healthcare Sprint)
- Syrian Strike (America’s Back Sprint, Moral Sprint, Message to Russia Sprint)
- China PM Weekend with strike occurring during visit (Trade Sprint, Manage your Problem Child Sprint)
- 1 or 2 Carrier groups sailing towards NK
- AG Sessions announces that our immigration laws will be upheld...this is only the beginning of what I think will becomes more and more expansive (Immigration Sprint, Nation of Laws Sprint, etc.)
There are others and the above sprints have multiple intended outcomes but these 5 actions encompass 2 foreign policy outcomes and 3 domestic outcomes, with some of the actions affecting both foreign and domestic policy...
So, what are some of the results...
- China refusing shipments from NK and sending the ships back
- China massing troops on the NK border...don’t know if that’s real or not
- China openly stating today that they\China will take out NK nuclear capability if NK doesn’t play well with others
- China giving some early trade concessions
- Russia looking really bad on the whole Assad thing
- Putin probably now meeting with Rex the T-Rex
- Putin realizing that he misses Obama
There are other good outcomes but you get the picture...
And all the sprints that were happening before all of this are continuing in the background (Obama Spying, etc.)...
My whole point is that Trump is a problem solver who just happens to love America...he is committed to fixing it! I’m enjoying watching him make his vision a reality...
Stand shoulder to shoulder with him in the breach on a daily basis...trust his instincts and his judgement and never ever underestimate him.”

Trump is maneuvering with the Chinese and Russians with the same skill that he went through the primaries and took out 16 components and then pulled up the upset of the century beating Hillary
The left is too stupid* to get that his Bluster is one of his tactics. A lot of Freepers haven't learned this reality of Trump going back to how he devastated his primary opponents and eventually Illiarily.
“I wish the Pearl clutches and chattering class would pay attention”
I agree. Way too many drama queens here on FR.
thanks Grampa Dave, not even close to a complete list either...

A lot of folks just do not seem to notice that Trump is using his expert negotiating skills to get better deals & only judge him on “changing” rhetoric.
excellent response to Trumps “golfing”
As you update it, please ping me. I will share it where appropriate.
Trump ran for President in 2000 - he tried to win the nomination of the Reform Party if you will recall.

thanks, I’m having a blast watching this unfold while the media and enemies of our nation are running around in an echo chamber talking to themselves about what amounts to nothing!
TG
I think Lazamatz??, one of frequent posters has a complete running tally of everything Trump has done since day 1...don’t know if you know him, but I’m sure he’s add you to his ping list for this...

That was my reaction too. I feel like we are in pretty good hands right now, and I don't always understand what he's up to, but I feel certain that he wants for this country what I want for this country.
It’s the bureaucratic mindset that says you’ve got to have pieces of paper that say you’ve “done something.” These pieces of paper, policies, bills, formal statements, are the currency of DC. It’s how they, and the media, measure political “success.” They compete to pile them up, it’s their yardstick of worth. Trump comes from another world, with a different set of criteria for measuring success. If he makes an apparently extreme, if demonstrably true statement, say that China is unfairly manipulating currency exchange to their economic benefit, and China changes their behavior, where is the piece of paper that proves that to the people seeking to measure him in DC? There is none. So, they go on to call him a flip-flopper, as if stating that China has unfairly manipulated currency exchange is some sort of permanent state of affairs that cannot be changed without “official” action. And on it goes, NATO, illegal immigration, jobs. Maybe he needs to at least symbolically play their little game with pieces of paper, so they’re not quite so adrift in a world that they just can’t comprehend.
