Hard Starboard Radio: Trump's Idiocies, Betrayals & Grudging Education

May 09, 2017

"Saturday, April 29th marked the 100th day of the Trumpidency. I will be blunt and say that outside of the nomination of Neil Gorsuch; it’s been pretty much a disaster. Signing a slew of executive orders is meaningless. Executive orders are only good until a President of the opposing party takes office and reverses them. Trump’s promise to repeal and replace Obamacare failed miserably, thanks in large part to Trump’s short-sighted promise that coverage extends to 'everybody' in his replacement and it didn’t happen. Remember the border wall and how Mexico was going to pay? Trump recently threatened a government shutdown if Democrats didn’t acquiesce to his demands for funding – i.e., taxpayer dollars - and then signed their Omnibust big-spending bill.

"Trump recently pooh-poohed the 100-day standard as did some in the media. Usually, I would agree, but in this case, it was Donald Trump who set lofty goals for his presidency and what he promised to do in the first 100 days of his administration."
