Default Donald Trump - has your opinion changed?





So despite all the cries that he wont last a month etc The Donald is getting on with being the pres and seems to be hitting a few home runs at home and abroad. Witness the upcoming talks with Fat Boy.


CNN, no lover of Trump, scored his first year

Exercising presidential power: A

Legislating: B

Coalition building: C

America's standing in the world: D

Moral Leadership: F (though not sure that has ever been a metric, witness Clinton and JFK )

https://edition.cnn.com/2018/01/18/o...zer/index.html


So have you, and dont lie, been a bit surprised just how well he has done?

Not really. He's done some good for the US internally but has damaged their international credibility in ways that will still be being felt in decades time . But he was 5/1 and I got my PS4Pro out of his win so I'm still pleased about that. I just need something else stupid and unlikely to happen in politics so that I can upgrade my PC graphics card... they cost a ****ing fortune at the moment because of god damned bitcoin .

He'd be a great BB Housemate, but he is a terrible Politician.

He hasn't even done half of the stuff that he spouted to his voters which is good because the ideas were insane, but it's also a bad thing that he tricked his voters into believing in them enough to elect him as President.

Even if he solved world hunger, got Kim to hand over his weapons, and freed NK from communion, he'd still be "literally Hitler" because he wants to be careful about who's allowed into the country.

How would your perception of other politicians colour your view of this one?...

He is, was and forever will be a narcissistic mess.

No, I just expect more in SD than "he is a twat"

which might make you feel superior and "on trend" but does not really illustrate you know what you are talking about
