After twenty-six weeks

Just a little check to see where we are at right now. 45 has been in office for twenty-six weeks now. It seems like twenty-six years. And what do we have?
A pile of Executive Orders ( however many that still need to be enacted upon, I do not know )
Two cabinet members gone ( seems like you need to put in a revolving door with all of the people coming in and going out )
One FBI Director gone

Repeal of Obamacare bogged down like it was caught in one of them sinkholes
Tax Reform Only in a wet dream that 45 might have, if he has them
National Deficit Only 46 can do that, and a Democrat this time
Draining the swamp Is 45 really that smart enough that he can find the plug to pull it, or is there more than one plug

I miss Barack Obama
I miss Bill Clinton
I miss Jimmy Carter

I miss Bush I. Even at this point, Bush II. He got us into wars and we didn't agree politically, but really, with 45, the bar is pretty low.

Gerald Ford spoke at Bovard Auditorium on the USC campus when I was a student, early '80s. I considered not attending but after consideration I went along with my friends and it was okay. Simplistic but okay.

Come to think of it, Gerald Ford had a Russia problem of his own, didn't he? That debate in 1976 and the Poland/Eastern Europe reference.

That was genius compared to anything Trump.
