    OK, so what's "positive" about wiping out healthcare and a preceding President's "legacy"?

    The rest of the crap that you want to give him credit for were years in the making, and long term trends. We could have a chimp in the office, and our economy would still be booming.

    The President doesn't run or manage the economy, and there's not a respected economist on the planet who thinks that an incompetent boob like Bonespurs deserves "credit" for long term economic trends.

    The president does not pass laws, the Congress does but your OP actually accuses him of not passing a law LOL

    As far as the economy is concerned, the president creates an economic climate in the country, negotiates treaties, signs or revokes regulations, deals with immigration (that affects labor supply), manages tariffs and subsidies and is involved in a million things that affect the economy directly and indirectly.

    The revenues generated by Americas workforce is what has made us wealthy.
    -$568 bn ... that's the BEA figure for 2017. Now present some science, fact, or reason that supports that an annual half trillion dollar global trade deficit, made us, or will ever make us a wealthier nation.

    The TPP would have corrected the trade imbalance however Trump pulled out to spite President Obama

    as the Iran deal which most Defense Department officials wanted to stay in.

    Trump has no idea of what he's doing............. he's just a salesman.

    Trump is delivering on his campaign promises, that's what we elected him to do. Your views on these matters together with your candidates representing these views were overwhelmingly rejected by the American people. Although in all fairness Hillary was also against the TPP, after she declared it to be the golden standard of free trade agreements lol

    THREAD LOCKED - Rules 11 and 15

    The OP had no commentary and therefore did not set the basis for respectful debate.

    The OP contained significant portions of a copyrighted article which violates the intellectual property rights of the author and the publisher while only a snippet (like a sentence or two) are allowed under Federal Fair Use Guidelines.
