President Trump has accomplished a great deal

Trump is on a roll. He has been received as a great leader in the Middle East and on his recent Asia trip. He has juiced the economy to 3 percent growth rate by the promise of tax cuts and deregulation and he has just barely started.

He has cut illegal immigration and he is rebuilding our military. He is appointing judges to the bench who believe in ethics, honesty, the Constitution and NOT legislating from the bench. He is weeding out “establishment” partisan and parasitic politicians, and he is draining the swamp in Washington. GO TRUMP!
