The ideas that meaningful change is implemented and starts to show results in 100 days is a dumb premise. The kind of question someone stupid enough to vote for Donald Trump would ponder.
Positives:
1. Basic knowledge of a college graduate. Knows how tariffs work. Knows Puerto Rico is part of the United States.
2. Proportional and measured responses to diplomatic problems. Not always great responses, but reasonable when underwhelming. Examples: EU vaccine controversy. Retaliation against Russia for the hacks late last year.
3. ARP largely a success. The backward hillbilly retard states are having trouble finding poors to go back to work for under $8.00/hour, but the economy in the good areas of the country is ramping back up and retail/service sectors are emerging relatively unscathed.
4. DoJ not still in a state of limbo. Working on Domestic Terrorism which is the greatest direct security threat facing the nation.
5. Reopening the exchange with better subsidies for shoppers and stronger guarantees for insurers resulting in lower costs. This should result in poors going back to work which gets them off medicaid and the $400/week payments.
6. Support for NASA.
Unfortunately, the next big task will not work. Infrastructure was neglected over decades and cannot be fixed overnight. Capital gains increases need to happen, but they need to be slow and incremental and should be limited to short term gains on wall street.
