The first \u201cHundred Days\u201d of a President\u2019s term in office has, for most of my life, something only political wonks and the Media really pay attention to. Not so for President Trump\u2019s second term. He has achieved one of his stated campaign goals of make his time in office historical. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though he is only the second person to be elected twice with an intervening President (being second is something DJT has never found acceptable) he has achieved several notable accomplishments. The first, and this is something DJT will never admit to, he is now the President with the lowest rating in polls coming out of the \u201cHundred Days\u201d since polling has been being taken. An to put icing on the cake, it is not just his approval rating as a President, it is also with all of his \u201cBig Political Plays\u201d are quite unpopular. All of them, Immigration, Taxes, getting rid of \u201cwaste and fraud\u201d, you name it and the American people have a poor opinion of both him and how it is being done. All are in the negative. A this is not just in the \u201cLiberal\u201d media polls, this in all of the polls taken. The only difference between \u201cliberal\u201d and \u201cconservative\u201d polling numbers is the actual size of the numbers in the poll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other historical accomplishment is he is on his way to having the most \u201cdo nothing\u201d congress since the 1950\u2019s. As of this writing only five laws have been enacted by congress. All the action in the Trump 2nd term so far has been thru executive action (EX\u2019s etc). The House of Representatives seems to be incapable of any kind of action. The Senate at least had to \u201cadvise and consent\u201d to all of DJT\u2019s appointments so they could look like they are working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I an not wait to see what happens in the next hundred days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
