The supreme Court is doing what Trump tells them to do so they are doing what he built them to do. That's on the Dems for not fighting the appointments harder imo.

You know what would have allowed the Dems to fight harder? Changing their policies into ones their constituents supported so as to win more votes. The American people have rejected the retarded nonsense of pretending to not know what a woman is and belief skin color should determine opportunity via top-down governmental edict. So long as Democrats cling to the 20% side of 80/20 issues, they are going to get weaker.
It's crazy how come drunk some posters are off Donald Trump
I want to elaborate on this a little more: ~75% of the country could smell Trump as a rat, initially. A wide field of traditional Republicans running for President dramatically split the semi-rational vote of Republicans, and as that field winnowed down, Trump had basically already won the primary. Then Republicans consolidated behind their candidate because he was their candidate and he won on a razor thin technicality. As a result the Overton Window has been blown out and his absolute chaos has become normalized, in particular to an entire generation of young people that just do not know better.
The lesson of the Nazis to me and I thought to most people was that otherwise decent people can be steered into unfathomable beliefs which we must forever be wary of. I know that the vast majority of people that voted for him are otherwise mostly decent folks and not genocidal maniacs. That is not required to sign off or even participate in the madness before us.
It’s just so sad and frankly inexcusable. The unfortunate reality is we need to find out about what ****ing around does, now. And it’s going to be painful.
I am reminded of what I was taught in church about the perils of pridefulness and that is the only thing that can explain why Trump is not the most unpopular President in American history right now. We’re about to learn how powerful pride is in the face of JUST PLAIN BAD ****.
Advocating for the marginalized is definitively unpopular or those peoples wouldn’t be marginalized. That shouldn’t be a reason to eject all sense of rational governing, but here we are.
Yeah, but at least we wont have a trans woman win a swim meet while the economy tanks!

Ya what is crazy to me is that people think that it's either trans women kicking *** in women's sports or trump.
No other option.
In reality there are plenty of Republican, and even Democratic, candidates that are against trans women in sports who aren't also the most corrupt, scandalous, dishonest, and immoral politician in history. It didn't have to be trump in order to achieve what those on the right wanted.
Dumbasses.

Don't forget abortions, and the pinnacle the regular guy wants in abortion prevention, putting women who have abortions in prison. Nothing says "come unto me" like putting women in prison for taking care of their medical needs. That is WAY more important than anything else that Trump might do.

As with all things, it is a mixed bag. I do applaud finally going through the government finances to make a sincere effort at eliminating fraud, waste, and abuse. I support forcing immigrants to go through the official channels set up by the Legislative Branch rather than turning a blind eye to our southern border. I'm glad to see someone who isn't obviously senile sitting as a figurehead while unelected mystery men run the most powerful nation on earth. While I am not cheering anyone losing their job, it is a reality that many government departments have needed modernization for a long time and there is far too much redundancy is many of the government's services.
As for the tariffs, no. I'm not happy with them and have become even more opposed as I've learned the numbers were derived from trade imbalances. That is retarded. I had hoped Trump was using them as a lever to get other nations to drop tariffs they have against US goods, but then other nations started dropping those and we hit them with tariffs anyway. That is where I step off the train.
