Jiminy Christmas....

I realize he said a lot of stuff would get done in his first 100 days... but with the amount of push back he's received from both sides of the aisle trying to save face, he's gotten a good bit done. And still has some time left, iirc, to get more done.
You want the wall, tax reform, healthcare reform, education reform, and infrastructure all done all at once right away...

He just got the biggest tax deal done and of course its "Oh but what about the wall? What about infrastructure"

You kids will never be satisfied.
Trump alters immigration rules? He's a racist.
Trump pushes for tax reform, he's killing the poor and helping the rich (not true) and if you like the tax bill, it's still not enough "where's my wall?"

In the political landscape you will not find a person running for office that doesn't have their fair share of nonsense and rhetoric on the trail. Trump promised to get much done in 100 days, and while it's been closer to 365, I think he's done a lot of good for the US as a whole.
But you guys would never admit to it.

Dude could turn [BLEEP] into pure gold and people would complain because they prefer silver.

"The Wall" was his #1 campaign promise by a mile. It wasn't even close. It was his main point on the campaign trail. It's what the vast amount of low income to lower income middle class Trump voters elected him on. I know, because I have several in my family. It was basically the only thing they wanted. Everything else was secondary. I told them it was a "pipe dream", but they insisted he would get it done and now they are getting ticked off, because he hasn't even been mentioning it. When he does, he no longer mentions Mexico paying for it. Believe me, I'm having fun telling my family members who voted for him, "I told you so," but they are getting very frustrated that he has shoved this promise aside. I'm just saying. Maybe he appeased his rich supporters with his tax reform, but his biggest group of supporters were the low income and lower income middle class and he's ignoring the promises he made to them. I see it. His base is losing confidence and if he loses the low end middle class vote, he's not getting re-elected.
