Eliminating the ACA's individual and corporate mandate as Trump did with the passing and signing of the 2017 Tax Bill ended Obama Care regardless of your opinion. The mandate was the heart, soul and guts of Obama Care, plain and simple. If you (still) don't believe, then tell us why did Obama Care call for the millions funded just to hire IRS agents? Tell us why, please, if it wasn't a mandate -- a bill with no health in it, nor any care?

I said he wouldn't get a wall. He didn't.

We'll get The Wall. We'll get The Wall. We'll get The Wall. This is a battle between Trump and the American people versus the GOP, the anti-USA Democrat Party and the Fortune 1000 globalists.

While we should have fought this battle on January 20th, 2017 we didn't. Trump erred in that he thought since he was a Republican who won and Republicans controlled both Houses of Congress this would be clear sailing. It didn't happen last year because the GOP elite is bought and paid for by un-American international corporate interests.

In 2018 we will get The Wall because this time the GOP idiots in leadership now know full well if they wish to win in November they need to be on Trump's side of things. As I once said many months ago it'll be for the better if Trump campaigns for you then if he does not. Even the dumbest of GOP politicians, and there are many, have come to realize that Trump holds the ticket to any future GOP majority.

Run with him and they win. Run against him and they lose.

I said he'd get tax reform. He did.

Good for you, even if being for Tax Reform in an upcoming election year was one of those 2-inch chippie putts. We, the people, did get a lot more than we ever thought we'd get. Take a bow.

I said he'd abandon his base on immigration. He did see DACA.

Trump is not abandoning his base on immigration. He is not surrendering on DACA. I know it's wishful thinking but come on, think about this for a second: Trump wasn't changing his immigration stand throughout 2017 when he allegedly was oh, so very unpopular. Why should he now change it when his popularity is much higher than before? Doesn't make sense.

I said relations with Russia wouldn't get better. They're worse.

Of course they are worse now. Why wouldn't they not be worse when the lunatics in the mainstream media and the losers in the Democrat Party yelled every day for 13+ months that Putin 'fixed' our election. On the basic merits this 'Putin fix' argument was ludicrous. If I was Putin, I'd be mad too. Just don't even think for a second that all this trouble between 'Putin' and the USA is because of Trump because it isn't.

I said trade tariffs wouldn't be enacted. They haven't.

The reasoning behind these tariffs was to prevent companies from leaving the US for other countries, leaving behind empty plants and lost jobs. So what happened when Trump got elected? Companies not only announced they were not leaving for Mexico but stayed home and promised even more investment! Plus, many companies returned to the USA, such as Apple/Foxconn, being just one big example. There are dozens and more examples, as I am sure you know.

How did you miss all this?

I said our foreign policy would be hit or miss. It's been a mess with a few successes.

Our Tax Bill has caused many companies to return to the USA as Trump promised. As a result many foreign countries are currently moaning about it, of course, and say the USA tax policy is wrong! Is this a hit or miss? For America I mean.

Leaving the Paris Climate Change Accord robbery is a big hit. You called it a miss because all we could have done is simply ignore the treaty, according to your thinking. Would we 'ignore' the PCCA before or after we sent them millions and millions of dollars more? Same with cutting UN funding. Great idea, long overdo.

Finally, with Trump pissing off Merkle, Macron, May, the UN, the EU, Islamist terrorists, North Korea, the mainstream US media and many anti-Trumpsters on PA, all this is a foreign and domestic policy victory! Let's stop being a sissy and whine about 'America's standing in the eyes of the world' is less now. We are the world's leader, standing higher than ever thanks to Donald J. Trump.

I said the Iran deal wasn't going anywhere. It isn't.

Again, we'll see later about the Iran deal. What will happen is Trump winning against this Iran deal happening than it going through. Don't pat yourself on the back just yet.

Remember, we do know all those that wanted this Iran deal to happen are all those politicians such as Obama, Clinton and Corker who were really supporters of the totalitarian dictatorship that runs Iran.

Funny how the Iranian people ... everyday freedom-loving citizens ... wanted change toward a more representative government and are now rebelling against. Obama and Clinton first stuck a knife in their back a while ago remember? Then they turned and turned that same knife a few years later with this Iran deal. Did the people benefit from the billions illegally sent to Iran by Obama or did the Islamists terrorists benefit?

Do you think the average American citizen --freedom loving Americans-- is behind Trump on this or not with him? Let's look at things clearly, for a change.

Overall I'm happy so far... embarrassed, this stuff you find on a VH1 reality show, but happy. I don't know why his voters are... Bannon the strategist of his campaign isn't.

The less he does the better.

I already posted that Trump has destroyed the political consultant career of Steve Bannon. I was correct when I first posted it, and am correct now.

If the Trump haters and the rest of the lunatics want to keep this silly narrative of Trump-Bannon-the base whatever, alive, be my guest.

Once, again. Trump's winning campaign was a Trump win. Not Bannon's. Never was. Advisers advise; winners win.
