***First Quarter Grades for President Trump’s Team

[Oldcarpy2]

Ah, good ole deconstructed curried naan with jellied eels compot on a bed of baked beans. Just like mom used to decant.

Still more palatable than the worst of American politics, sadly.

Bluuuurgh!

I'm going to hold off grading this Administration till they have a full year to get things lined out. Biden had 4 years to screw things up and people expect a solution in 100 days. The Democrats/Liberals are doing exactly what they did last time. Filing court cases to hinder any decision Trump makes.
Funny how they are fighting to continue to waste tax dollars and keep illegals in the country much harder than they ever have for the Rights of American citizens.

I gave WALTZ an "F" on my report card.
He just got fired.
Just 4 hours ago he was on Fox and Friends, obviously clueless as to what was coming.
This guy is a tool.   Untrustworthy.   
He never did adequately answer why he had the reporters phone number in his own phone.

Bu-bye.

Now get rid of Navarro ....

TRUE.

The left has been so absurd ... with shoving their trans-fad down everyones throat and with their wide open border and their identity politics and and their anti-real-men rhetoric and their 'america last' world order mentality ... that people regurgitated it all back up and voted for someone who stood for the exact opposite and was an obnoxious a-hole about it.   The left created Donald Trump.   and they are the ones keeping him alive.   They are STILL coming out with their trans nonsense and their antiborders and defund the police and their identity politics and their 'you are a nazi if you disagree with us' stupidity.  This garbage is what keeps Trumps political position alive and well.  If the left would be normal ... which is a tall order at this point ... then the Trump phenomenon would wither and die.

On the left, the DNC power brokers had to transition the party's platform to include every extremist letter of the alphabet that they could find to counter Trump's never-wavering, vocal, high-profile base. They propped up Joe, but once it became evident he was a lost cause, they pivoted to a Kamala and Tim ticket. 

They hoped they could still sway enough Independents and Moderates based on thier Trump hate and fear mongering. They openly wished Crooks were a better shot...  

But as we are learning, they lied the whole time, Biden was Jill's autopen and thier internal polling NEVER showed a Harris and Walz lead.

I think Trump is doing pretty good.  We need to blame everything on the liberals, progressives, and the Democrats in high political positions.

They went after Trump and created a monster...it is the Democrats in charge that caused him to be so forceful in cleaning up the country.  If they had followed the laws properly and not stuck all obviously misguided legal actions against him, he might not be so fired up at cleaning the swamp and trying to fix things so our country can survive.

I am sure that the Liberals, progressives, and Democrats cannot see they caused what is going on, they are blinded by their beliefs that they are above the laws of the country.  I am not a MAGA person, I am an observer of what has been going on in this country and the world.

But Trump believes he is above the law, ignoring SCOTUS and the Constitution, Congress, threatening Judges who rule against him, law firms, Universities, media outlets and so on.

But, never mind, eh?

Oh please. We watched Biden ignore SCOTUS and go after Conservative/Religion based colleges during his term also, while wiping his ass with the Constitution and using the courts and judges to go after Trump and anyone associated with him.

Democrats made the rules, don't be mad when Trump plays by them.

Crap on toast ...

Trump fired Waltz from being National Security Advisor this morning.
Now he appoints Waltz to be United Nations Ambassador.
This weenie Waltz should be GONE.    Bone head move.

True.

You forgot to mention the part about the Democrats and Biden ignoring SCOTUS and paying off college student loans by the hundreds of millions ... even though SCOTUS said not to .... all to try to buy votes in the 2024 election.

Side note ... Trump didn't ignore SCOTUS when it comes to Garcia.  SCOTUS said he should 'facilitate' the return.  That's exactly what Trump did.   Trump can't go to El Salvador and kidnap Garcia from his own country in which he's a citizen of.  So he asked for the return (that's 'facilitating') and the President of El Salvador said he wouldn't send his citizen out of his own country.

Overall grade: incomplete

Overall I am happy with the progress this admin has made. If I was to give a low (but not exactly failing) grade on anything, it would be messaging before the inauguration even happened. Far too much sugar coating of reality by the Trump team. They never should have said war in the Ukraine would be over "in 1 day," never should have said tariffs would be directly paid for by the nation's that export to US, and seriously should have STFU about this 51st Canadian state crap.

The rest of it has been fine. Anyone with any degree of economic knowledge knew that short term pain would happen from the tariffs, that's a long game from the get-go and should have been messaged as such. The deportations? Good, keep 'em coming. The handling of belligerents within the US college system? Good job so far, keep grinding. The economic war with China? Long overdue, slap the piss out of Xi's carefully constructed economy and then stop a mud hole in the puddle afterward. Ukraine? So-so. I'd prefer we had stayed entirely out of it, but if we must be involved and we stand to benefit from Ukraine "winning" then we may as well go all the way and let our nuts hang over Putin... which is actually starting to look like it may go that direction.

So incomplete grade, but showing signs of good things.
