In my opinion, Trump's best hope for a lasting legacy would be from successfully securing some kind of peace on the Korean peninsula. Without that, what can Trump hang his presidential hat on?

You mean aside from tax reform, lowest illegal entry into the United States in memory, ISIS on the run, and the booming economy?

The only thing Trump can take credit for is the tax bill, the rest can and will be attributed to his predecessor.

Rising approval ratings are quite the accomplishment /s

Thats a pretty sad list all things considered.

LOL. It's like they knew they needed more than three bullet points to satisfy their moron viewers, and just started listing random things off the top of their head.

I'm surprised they didn't just write Gorsuch somewhere there

Only under a mental midget like Trump could appointing someone to SCOTUS be seen as a big deal worthy of repeating ad naseum

While 1 nomination on its own might not be an accomplishment, Trump has gotten a total of 39 Article III judges confirmed so far, which is more than the 26 Article III judges that Obama had gotten confirmed at this point in his first term.

There is nothing good (long-term) about the tax bill. The tax bill will add approximately 1.5 Trillion over 10 years to the national debt, due to a reduction of revenue going into to the federal government.
And mainly at the expense of giving businesses and individuals in higher brackets most of the benefits.

It's hilarious.
I just cant seem to wrap-my-head-around this kind of nonsense, and believe that anyone watching Fox would take it/them seriously.
You got to be some kind of severe cultist (or brain-dead zombie) to look at that list and say "what a great list of accomplishments."
Good God!

The only people worse at negotiations than the Trumps are the Kims. I'd figure they'd at least try to get some concessions before chickening out.

This is what happens when we put the fate of peace in the hands of two incompetent narcissists.

Yeah, Kim's too power-hungry (and insane) for this to work. Kinda expected this, but disappointing nevertheless.

Well, what on Earth did Kim Jung-Un think we wanted to discuss ?!
Negotiating the construction of numerous McDonalds restaurants in NK?
This sounds like some big hoax (set-up) by Kim (and possibly even the other Clown ... you know the orange one.)
To be continued, and hopefully something can still be salvaged from this "mix-up."

We did this every year under Obama, who was too weak to get as far as we have so far regardless. The Norks are just demonstrating that they're willing to walk away, just as Trump has said he would do at his most recent rally. This is just a game of diplomatic chicken.

This. Everyone here is overreacting.

If Trump wasn't a moron maybe he would have had a chance to finish them, but nope, need to shoot the guns and have military exercises at this time because of tiny penis syndrome!

This post is as accurate as Sanchez's "Blankenship surge" post

I suspect they meant that they won't agree to giving up their nukes in exchange for a summit.  This looks like propaganda posturing on their part and/or ensuring Trump or some other idiot won't be able to legitimately claim the NK are welshing on a deal by not committing themselves to denuclearize during the summit.

I never trusted them, so not a huge surprise. Though it's questionable whether than military maneuver should not be cancelled or delayed.

This was why they are threatening to cancel the summit? Military exercises?

And here I thought it was something completely new from the way everyone jumped on top of it.

The red libs jump on anything anti-Trump because he represents a threat to their left-wing, ill-advised diversification and globalism agenda.

They are, to quote the President "Absolute scum".
As your financial advisor, I suggest you rethink that phrase

I don't think a lot of posters here know much about portfolio theory, so some might not get your joke. Spread the word! Smiley

Indeed Modern Portflio Theory has not been disproven

What about Mutual (fund) Assured Diversification?
