After 500 days of trumps presidency

Being totally real, tax plan was more or less successful in what it set out to achieve, which basically continues the trend of unemployment dropping but meaningful wage growth stays stagnant

Trade war isn't looking good for us, and I usually like the America first angle when it comes to some of this shit, but I would've preferred that national infrastructure plan he talked up (but that was about as much of a pipe dream as Mexico paying for the wall)

I doubt anything comes of the NK talks, but that's more how I feel about NK than Trump

Without any major achievements to run on other than the tax plan, which probably only shores up his base, you'd think Republicans would lose seats in Congress. but with McConnell extending the legislative term 3 weeks into prime campaigning time, odds are some senate dems lose their reelection bid, meaning come 2020 the republicans need something to show for it or he's a one term president...

Tldr

He's not Ted Cruz or Mike Pence, so I'm cool with losing international karma in exchange for getting very little done
