Ford cancels plans for Mexican factories? Trump signing executive orders limiting EPA regulations on Coal? Trump signing the Keystone Pipeline into action? Sometimes I wonder if people are so butt hurt that Trump won that they will just keep ignoring the facts that he is doing everything that he campaigned he would do.

Which, was both decided before Trump took office and Ford themselves said had nothing to do with Trump.

This has zero to do with why coal movers aren't working. Congrats. The water will be polluted and the coal miners will still lose their jobs.

Funny you say this. The Keystone Pipeline approval directly helps Canadians and Canadian companies. I am related to someone who has received a 3 year contract with Enbridge recently directly because of this approval.

Its real easy to make blanket statements so please carry on.

Bickering here aside, there is also the huge upcoming problem for Trump that will likely spark another government crisis or humiliate him with the number of compromises he'll have to make. With government funding running out Friday and Trumps insistence on jamming a border wall in that the majority of Americans do not want and are unwilling to pay for, his currently level of narcissism and inability to navigate to political compromise even within his own party, I'm fairly certain we'll end up with another government shutdown and furlough of workers.

He campaigned on spending 30% of his time in Mar-a-Lago, golfing and wasting taxpayers dollars?

or that he defeated ISIS in the first 30 days?

Well if you think that cheating in the election processes automatically leads to losing then buckle up buddy...either Trump is going to be impeached or you're going to have his administration shred the institutions that make America a liberal democracy that is admired by many.

Im buckled in nice and tight. Any day now right?

Im still waiting for the information that Hillary tweeted about her "scientists" found something that will sink the trump campaign. Hmm, I wonder if these were the same as Obamas scientists too? Do you think they were conspiring when Obama was using tax dollars to fly around Hilarys butt on Air Force One? Nah, would never happen.....

You do know Keystone XL is a TransCanada Pipelines project, not Enbridge, right?

Your logic makes sense, but it appears it's not having the effect that you think it will.

President Trump nears the 100-day mark of his administration as the least popular chief executive in modern times, a president whose voters remain largely satisfied with his performance, but one whose base of support has not expanded since he took the oath of office, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

Obsessed with Hillary and Obama still? Just like the moron in office now.
It's been almost 100 days of blunder and non accomplishments. How long before you accept the election is over?

Where is Donalds proof of Obamas wire tapping? see, now that's current.

I believe the term you are looking for is "uppity" and all the racial connotations it entails.

See Fozzie, you're beating your head against a (border) wall here. He's never going to change his views because facts don't matter.
