Now I have to look up Obama mom jeans. I don't have any idea what that was. And sure, I poked fun at Obama. Not hundreds of times, not every single day. This is all day, every day.

Perhaps it is because Trumps goal is to be in the news everyday, all day and he is quite effective at it.

Numerous experienced politicians have told him he'd get more accomplished if he behaved differently.

He has not changed.

And so far his legislative accomplishments are not noteworthy.

Pete, when you ignore his accomplishments, I agree it's easy to say he hasn't done anything.

I didn't ignore any thing, what I said was "And so far his legislative accomplishments are not noteworthy".

Perhaps like Scott, you think he is not responsible for legislation since he is not a "legislator"
