Conservative Texas Newspapers slams Trump's first six months listing failures

Never has a Conservative Texas newspaper so destroyed a sitting Republican president as did the states major rag. It is an article that completely lays waste to everything Donald Trump has done or stands for entirely.

1. Let's outline Trump's achievements during his first six months in office

President Donald Trump's first six months have been defined by his often angry and tasteless tweets, his ham-handed efforts to denigrate and undercut the multiple investigations into Russian influence in the 2016 election and the stalemated legislative battle to repeal and replace Obamacare.

But Trump is right in saying he has significantly influenced government and the nation's image -- though much of his impact has been negative. His most significant clear-cut triumph was installing conservative Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch. He can take credit for slowing the inflow of illegal immigrants. And his impact has gone well beyond that, a conclusion on which two recent articles from opposite ends of the ideological spectrum agreed.

"While You Obsessed over Trump's Scandals, He's Fundamentally Changed the Country," headlined Sam Stein in the liberal HuffPost. "Reporters only want to talk about Russia, instead of what Team trump is getting done," was part of the headline over conservative Kimberly Strassel's column in The Wall Street Journal.

Hell, all republicans should be ashamed of themselves for doing this to America.

Best summation of the first six months of this nightmare, I have read. With this and
the WSJ editorial, maybe the worm is twisting just a bit...

Thanks for posting.
