Republicans control the senate, the house and the white house and they can't get schit done still?
Basically, it happens under every President since Ford. Nothing new.

Obama did not have a Dem controlled house and senate... so what was the point of bringing that up?
I don't see the similarity in circumstances there.
This administration has been bungling among it's own party so badly to get any legislation actually passed that it is mind boggling. Fortunately for them doing nothing is probably the best thing they could do with the economy recovering as it has been.Last edited by BrometheusBob.; 01-18-2018, 05:17 PM.

2016 GDP growth was 1.5%. In 2017, Trump's first year, it was 3%.
Cutting regulations did that.
Once the Trump tax cuts kick in it'll be growing 4-5%. Watch and see.
