Trump has done more than Obama did in years: #tellusatoday

Readers react to President Trump’s 100-day benchmark in office.

President Trump.

This weekend President Trump reached his 100-day benchmark in office. Facebook comments are edited for clarity and grammar:

One hundred days? Feels like 100 years. Maybe Trump’s best is yet to come, but considering how bad it is now, that’s not saying much. Worst president ever. I doubt he’ll make it to the end of his first term.

— Ray West

Against the Democrats’ odds and their cabal of opposition to Trump, he has succeeded. Trump has done more in 100 days than President Obama did in eight years.

I have never seen so much flipping and flopping in my entire life. What Trump says today, he changes tomorrow. Lies and propaganda coming and going won’t help.

100 days of Trump selling his presidency: Our view

 

If you’re not happy with Trump’s first 100 days, try to imagine the mess that Hillary Clinton would have done in this time!

David Knoll

Trump ridiculed Obama for his extensive use of executive orders, yet he already surpassed him. Only one of his actions has any real significance: the nomination of Justice Neil Gorsuch and, ironically, that was only achieved with Senate Republicans changing the rules so a simple majority was needed for the confirmation!

Trump has accomplished no legislative achievements.

Jim Harron

Trump gets a B+, which will turn into an A when the wall business is put to rest and Obamacare is repealed.

Anna DeMarinis

These Republican fascists have legislated nothing — and the only thing they have achieved is revealing their malodorous thinking.

Mike Muoio

I have seen worse presidents in my life, look at the last three. Trump gets a B+; health care rollback isn’t as big of a deal to me, but it matters.

We asked our followers to grade President Trump’s first 100 days in office. Tweets are edited for clarity and grammar:

I would give him an F. Trump basically governs by executive order, not legislation. He flip flops and divides us instead of trying to unite us.

@northkats

I give him an 85, a solid B. He continues to fight animosity from those that did not vote for him, hindering his progress with legislative initiatives.

@JerseyAttitudes

A big, fat F. Trump’s a liar and a cheat. Making money off the government while president.

@TeddyCharlie

Meaningless, made-up date to give pundits something to talk about. I’ve never witnessed a legacy developed in 100 days.
