The "swamp" meanwhile is alive and well. Mrs. Clinton "suffered enough" not getting to rule the world. The first amendment has been trashed about 70% as to the public square. DJT has agreed with "red laws" to confiscate guns first then have a trial later.
On these 4 priorities of mine overall I would give him perhaps a "C". So far it looks as if his SC picks were ill advised but it would be hard to tell if someone would actually be a Conservative if appointed.
The Democomms, who are fighters, demand that their picks be TOTALLY LIBERAL. Repubs say they have no litmus test.
But DJT did lower taxes and cut regulations. Same as any Repub would have done. He stood with Israel to his credit and perhaps strengthened the military. Our country is now in debt farther than could ever be imagined so tho jobs were at an all time high that does level out the optimism.
I like that he stood up to the press better than the Repubs before him but name calling and "tweets" wont get the hardest job (in the natural world) done.
Again, I am still for him. I thank God we had Trump instead of the Clintons. We had 4 years more to do what were doing. In his mercy God can do this again. If it is his will.

Im not sure if Trump was too naive to proclaim he was going to drain the swamp or he literally thought he could in his first term. This swamp has been going on for years, it was foolish for him to say that, AND foolish for those who believed that he could in such a small amount of time.
I do believe he rattled the swamp, he stirred things up in Washington in a way that hasn’t been done in years. That is to his credit, he is I believe self proclaimed or through other sources “a disrupter”. Because of him we got to see the other side of the media, and Washington that we haven’t seen before.
Also, he has not started a war I cannot remember the number but, in my lifetime he is the first president to do so. It’s been a great last 4 years, and well see what the next 4 years will be....
