that's above avg. if one pays attention to muh poles.....
so other than his crazy tweets that have easily calmed down recently, what would you choose in deference when his platform was to attack the right/left/msm in totality???
can't wait to hear this one if'n ya willing........
if it's crazy tweets = -3, I can't combat that op-ed in weighting....
I think he has largely failed to make any substantive changes in Washington.
Washington has change him, not the other way around.

You know, because these were things the lefties said would happen if he was elected.
He also did not visit California. Bwahahahahahahahaahahahaha

He would have though if the election were based on the popular vote.
He left well over 3 million votes in California and New York combined.
He would have done incredible in those States if the rules were changed.

fair enough....I actually see it the other way around.....
the RNC has begun to take notice.....which I believed was his goal all along....ol' boy knows he's simply grooming Pence for '20...which I'm easily certain more will cling onto in 'polish'....
it takes a tad more time than 1 year to achieve what you and many others are looking for in that arena....it's ironic how much he's accomplished both in planning and policy based on your posit when he announced....
I give him a 9.5 with a 0.5 tweet deduction.....he's achieved all I was looking for with that minor deduction....

I'm OK without a physical wall IF we enact virtual walls.
A few years ago Arizona passed a law penalizing businesses which employ illegals.
The first offense carried the penalty of losing your business license in Arizona for one year.
The second offense carried the penalty of losing your business license in Arizona forever.
Once the law was enacted illegals self-deported themselves to surrounding states.
However, with too many pro-illegals states, I think the wall is one part of the strategy. And it would basically pay for itself within a year, maybe two max.
I like that idea. I would add a penalty of $200 per person for first offense and a $1000 per for 2nd.

Sheesh, I've been saying that for years. If you don't stop the problem at its source you'll never fix it. If it hurts the pocketbook of the businesses nothing will get done. It's not like if they're keeping the prices down because they're hiring illegals and not paying them comparable salaries to other honest companies. It all goes to their bank accounts. That law should be nationwide. Stupid politicians are so lost in their own little world that they don't know what the story is. I blame both parties.

RE: First year accomplishments of President Donald Trump
There is never going to be a physical wall across the entire border and I don't believe for a second Trump or any of his people ever intended for there to be. Its completely unnecessary and total overkill.
I do believe they will build new walls in key crossing areas, but most of the border will never have a physical wall and never needed one. Most illegals come across in a few key areas.
