His party controls both the house and senate and he's been completely ineffective. 

He was told who to pick for the Supreme Court and the pick only made it to the Supreme Court by stealing it. Twice. 

Trump has had the worst 6 months of any president... William Henry Harrison died 31 days into his Presidency and had a better 6 months.

D, he got most of his cabinet picks and a SC justice, there's been some deregulation stuff, but there has been very little advancement of his agenda, in large part due to the ineptness of Congress. Also he's made a buffoon of himself a lot, but that was to be expected.

Gorusch and Mattis alone are enough to move him up a few tiers. 

Killed the TPP [which mostly was bad because it let foreign companies get legal with US citizens in the US, not "Trade", although allowing more outsourcing to Vietnam and India is really fucking bad] 

Pulled out of the Paris Accord, which keeps climate change response an economic standard and not a legal one. [Seriously, fuck France. Outlawing gas cars. -_-; Because electrics aren't expensive or anything]

At least an effort into Health Care/Obamacare repeal. Failing here is congress being inept, but whatever.

Travel Ban. Courts are inept, but that's the courts. 

Keeps failing at Korea and making the US look really weak, so that's a downfall there. And Congress is really inept. But that's Congress.

Pulled out of Paris
got $$ for Wall
Appointed a conservative SCJ
Increased budget for ICE
increased deportations
lower illegal immigration
Repealed DAPA
Opening up more land to drilling/mining (undoing Obama EOs) 
Cut budget of EPA by $530 million/3k layoffs (20% of what he wanted but he can't force Republicans and Dems on this issue)

enacted travel restriction/ban.
Lower refugee immigration. 
repealed gun control laws regarding SS recipients.
Gave military more deference/latitude - i.e., using MOAB whereas Obama admin completely opposed. 

I am curious to see what he will do with Iran. There is considerable pressure from various sides to stick to the Iran deal saying that it would be unlawful to not rectify. I hope he pulls out though.

I voted him a B due to not repealing DACA or not getting more out of it. He's also looking to cut legal immigration by 500k immigrants per year. 

US has lowest unemployment rate in years.
Record high for stock market (which could very well be another bubble to be fair).

He also did try to defund Planned Parenthood (which I don't necessarily agree with) but Congress said no.

Cool. But most of those are mere executive orders. They can be easily reversed by another administration.

Trump needs to tell McConnell and Ryan to stop pandering to the RINOs. Otherwise he should replace them both with more competent people.

C/D - He got off on the right foot with me by getting out of TPP and appointment Gorsuch but really hasn't done much of value since. Healthcare appears to be a dud and while I don't believe this is solely on Trump it does fall on his party for campaigning on it for 7 years then fucking failing to produce anything of value. I thought pulling out of the Paris Accords wasn't really the best decision politically since it was nonbinding but the libertarian in me thinks it is neat to see states/private companies say they're going to do those things anyway. Yes the economy is doing great right now but I don't know really how much Trump has to do with that (though I will concede the stock markets rocketed skyward after he got elected). He'll get improved marks from me if he can get Tax reform passed. A much more streamlined tax code is a must in my opinion.

I forgot about the travel ban, I guess I would move his grade up then to a D+. Even though it's still up in the air, I suppose that is an important achievement he can point to, especially if the revised ban in upheld in court.

Gorsuch is an objectively awful human being and also a bad judge. And Mattis only seems decent by comparison to the shitshow that is everyone else in the Trump regime.

You realize Trump's sole objection to TPP is that it's not "his" deal, right? If he were to "negotiate" a "new deal" that's almost word-for-word identical to TPP, you and the Trump cult would suddenly love TPP. And honestly, that's probably the best case scenario since Trump's replacement for TPP will probably be worse.

No, what it does is signal that America won't have a climate change response, because Trump is an idiot who thinks global warming is a hoax invented by China to ruin the American economy.

Also, is it really that hard for you to grasp that the Paris Accord isn't about France?

Yes, Trump put an effort into making the American health care system work. Put another way, he tried to kill thousands of Americans per year.

It's not "inept" for the courts to do their fucking job and strike down Trump's unconstitutional policies. That's Trump being inept, and trying to be a dictator instead of President of the United States.

The ones in italics are bad things. The ones in bold are lies. The ones in neither italics nor bold are probably lies too, given your track record. But I have no idea what you're even talking about regarding gun control (incidentally the President can't repeal laws), and I seriously doubt your claim about Obama refusing to let the military do what was necessary.

Side note:

I have him an F.

Not for any one thing in particular, but his overall performance, or lack thereof.


He has been completely ineffective as a leader and has yet to actually accomplish anything of lasting importance legislatively sans Gorsuch and Gorsuch is an absolute disgrace to the SCOTUS. 

It is worth noting that there are a few things I actually wanted Trump to succeed on (congressional term limits, American protectionism among them) but he hasn't delivered anything but empty words.
