U.S. News & World Report Opinion Piece:
Trump is Failing His Voters
Donald Trump Lied to Americans Who Desperately Wanted His Help
Excerpt:
"During the campaign Trump promised $1 trillion in infrastructure investments and they are nowhere in sight; not because of Washington obstruction but because a bill hasn't been proposed.
"Trump's Make America Great Again agenda is stalled in Congress because outside of a one-sheet tax-plan (and a budget that cuts aid to his own voters) his agenda doesn't yet exist.
"Trump promised legislation to end the offshoring of American labor. The only action has been an empty executive order encouraging companies to buy American.
"From building a wall to labeling China a currency manipulator, most of Trump's promises are unfulfilled or they've been broken mostly from lack of effort (emphasis mine) ...
"Trump signed more bills in his first 100 days than any president since Harry Truman but they renamed VA clinics or undid Obama era Fish & Wildlife regulations. There are no major accomplishments.
"There were never going to be. Not because of Senate Democrats or fake news in the Amazon Washington Post; but because of Donald Trump."
On it's own, this is nothing more than one magazine's opinion piece. Looking at the bigger picture, it appears to me this is part of a new narrative that is beginning to gel. This is more than an MSM narrative. It's a widespread belief that is beginning to take hold among voters and, significantly, among the Republicans who have the power to impeach Trump.
We're seeing evidence that Republican legislators and world leaders are beginning to believe and/or publicly voice this new narrative. It's the story of Do-Nothing Donald, a man who became president unprepared, boldly spoke, and grew weaker by the day.
The evidence includes legislative defeats, criticism by foreign governments, new lows in job-approval polls and the increasing willingness of legislators and administrators to simply ignore the president.
As Trump continues to lay blame at Republican's feet, watch for them to tire of it. Watch for Trump fatigue to express itself in the increasing Republican williness to speak and act against Trump and eventually impeach.
