The Republicans were sent to the majorities in the House and Senate and given the White House to repeal Obamacare, build a wall and get tax reform through. So far none of that has happened or even come close. There's still time, but the mid-terms will be here soon. If this doesn't happen then I could see the Republicans losing at least one chamber of Congress. The Democrats still have an uphill battle for the Senate but it's not completely out of play for them yet.
The budget that the President sent to Congress this week looks pretty good from what I've seen so far and I've been impressed by a lot of Mick Mulvaney's answers to the press and congressmen/women. The President's budget probably deserves its own thread, though.
The people in the flyover country are paying attention. They watch the fake news, they watch as the progressives are becoming even more unhinged and they are watching as the media and progressives do everything they possibly can to bring down this administration.
These people aren't idiots. After watching this they will not walk in the voting booth and hand power to Chuck Schumer or Nancy Pelosi. They WILL vote out republicans who have reneged on their promises and replace them with new blood. Let's hope it starts with Paul Ryan.
