Do not have the time right now to investigate all the good things written about Trump but sure would like to see this Forum mature from the juvenile antics of some. Get back to the actually issues than personal insults and CRIMINAL HARASSMENT.

.

This list, some of which is actually true (but each out of context and includes EO's) is plagerized directly from the Washington Examiner.

And each subject to discussion and much interpretation.

I might also suggest you look at Paul Bedard (the journalist who put this together) along with the Examiners record of accuracy.

Then come back to earth

When you speak of fake news...........

Yes, I copied and pasted it from an online news source. I didn't pay attention to which one, but if you say that it's the Examiner, I'll take your word for it. Copying articles and pasting them online is common practice these days. I hardly call it plagiarism. I didn't take credit for writing the list. But then again, maybe the left has come up with yet another new definition of a word in the English language.

But instead of attacking the source perhaps you could enlighten us on which of these are false.

Now, I know that there are many on the left that might disagree that these are good things, but they are what the president and his supporters want to accomplish. They are some of the many things he stated that he would do if elected. He's done a great job of fulfilling his promises. And, he's done it with one of the most obstructionists Congress in history.

I certainly will get back in that...time constraints right now.

You do realize, I assume, that this is not journalism. It is a copy of a White House release, and we know their track record on truth.

At least find journalism...this is from the White House, unedited.

In 2017, Trump revived feminism, saved satire and reinvigorated journalism - CNN

This is amusing about Trump's achievements.

As a reader of all press releases, I recognized, but because of the nature of lying from the WH, it is mostly non reported.

This was one.....

"The White House Office of the Press Secretary wants Americans to know just how hard freshman President Donald Trump worked this year and what he accomplished. No, its release didn’t go out on a postcard like the one POTUS says you’ll soon be able to do your taxes on; instead, it’s a 3,800-word screed/backslap ranging from the economy to “restoring confidence in and respect for America.”

Remember, the holidays are a time to believe in alternate reality."

Interesting how this is the kind of rhetoric, actually the ONLY kind of rhetoric that Trump supporters use in their support of Trump.

All they need is a vocabulary of 2 words....Clinton, Obama, and they are set for any debate about Trump.

Who did you vote for and why? Lol

I feel bad for you.

You keep asking the same question, and keep forgetting the answer.

I did not vote for either of the major candidates...Clinton or Trump because their moral values are non existent. Neither should even be allowed to visit our White House.

One year in, and my thoughts, sadly, have been validated.
