The only comparison being made is promises versus completion. That’s it.
If you’re defending Trump against anything, then show your work. Your word salads that consistently invoke Obama are NOT rebutting the article.
Amongst the major campaign promises were build the Wall, replace the ACA, formally label China as a currency manipulator, revoke the Iran deal, etc. Were these promises made by Trump or Obama? They’re all Trump promises, so why are you trying to compare Obama? Obama didn’t make those promises, so it’s an invalid comparison. Trump promised within the first hundred days that the ACA would be replaced with something bigger and better. That has not happened, so that is a failed campaign promise. There’s your comparison. He promised, and had miserably failed to deliver on what has to be the biggest promise of the campaign.
Making this Trump versus a former president also opens the comparisons to every other former president. So let’s compare Trump versus FDR, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton, Bush Jr., and Obama. All presidents of the modern era. Other than Ford, Trump fails miserably against every one of them. Six months in, and Trump has failed to pass a single important campaign promise, most notably replacement of the ACA.
The others all failed to implement major campaign promises, but the difference is that they were all able to get major legislation passed within the first one hundred days, and Trump has failed miserably and it’s already six months in.
He is the only President to fail passing a major piece of legislation this far into his presidency. By any metric, he is the most ineffectual president since Harding.
You mentioned in an earlier response that you conducted performance reviews for twenty years as part of your job. Let me present you with a hypothetical situation.
Your company hired Employee “O” based, in part, on his promises. During his stint he completed some of his tasks, and also engaged in completing other tasks by dint of orders, even though he never had complete support from other management, and so never was able to bring some promises to total fruition. Now, eight years later, your company replaced Employee “O” with Employee”T”, who earned the job with many extensive and grandiose promises. Six months in, Employee “T”, who also has complete support of all other branches of the company, has failed to deliver on a single major promise.
You have to do an employee review of Employee”T”. Does your review consist giving Employee “T” a passing grade because his predecessor failed to complete all of his promised initiatives? Or does the review focus on Employee “T” and his failure to complete not even one major initiative? What is the comparison going to be? Employee “T” versus his record, or versus the previous holder of the job?
One simple yes or no answer. During a review, do you measure the review subject against his own record?
I expect a long word salad trying to contort your answers into a way to invoke Obama’s legislative record, but we all know the truth here. You worship Trump, and you dismiss critics as emotional wrong-thinking radical leftists.
Its very telling that you can’t defend Trump based on any of his achievements without deflecting to Obama, because Trump has no accomplishments to speak of, and it’s already six months in.
You’ve failed to provide any examples of Trump campaign promises that have come to fruition — why do you keep avoiding? Prove the naysayers wrong and show all the glorious promises turned into legislation signed into law since January 21st. According to you, Trump’s been the most effective president in modern history, so there must be some sort of congressional record indicating all the winning, all the fulfilled campaign promises, all the millions of jobs created, the new and best ever healthcare act, the withdrawal from the middle east, the repudiation of the Iran deal.
Come on, you should have no problem illuminating the myriad goals and promises he’s achieved?
