Fairly good accomplishments by Trump thus far..........

[DawgWCK]

I'm a big Bill Oriley fan and listened to him list some fairly significant accomplishments over the last few weeks for Trump and his team:

1. Rubio getting Chinese company kicked out of running Panama Canal and reduced rates for US Ships
2. Getting 5 US Citizens released from Venezuela prison, some could be CIA folks
3. Getting Mexico to send 10,000 troops to boarder
4. Getting FBI to work with ICE to round up and arrest or ship out some really bad dudes
5. Getting boarder SOMEWHAT under control
6. Identifying some real areas of Government Spending Waste (USA Aid and related) to at least get a starting point for a reasonable budget

As Oriley said, none of this is earth shattering but 65% of voters would almost 100% agree that these are positive accomplishments. Hard work of getting a reasonable budget for 2026 is ahead, but thus far some reasonable accomplishments.

Exactly. I don't think meaningful change is going to come in one big package. It's going to be hundreds of small changes backed up with competent and accountable leadership.

Fantastic.

Very proud of this.

There’s still plenty of time for Kash, Tulsi, and the RFK brainworm guy to ruin all the goodwill… but this is a fantastic start.
