It has been one year since the Republicans took control of the government; they control the House, the Senate, and the Presidency.
What have they accomplished in a year?
They passed a god awful tax bill that hurts the middleclass and lower income people and gives a trillion dollar tax cut to the 1 percenters.
They stripped health insurance from millions of people.
They have refused to enforce the Civil Rights Act of 1964, they have refused to enforce the environmental laws, they have refused to enforce labor safety laws, they have gutted the consumer protection agency, and they have bent over to give anything that Wall Streets wants.
The administration has refused to enforce the Americans with Disabilities Act.
The Children's Health Insurance Program expired in September 2017 and they never brought a bill to the floor to vote on extending it.
Trump has spent more time playing golf than any other president in history and he has made millions of dollars by visiting his own properties.
Trump has failed to appoint people to key government positions, there are still many ambassadorships that are still unfilled one year later.
Trump has contradicted himself so many times that he is like a flag flapping in the wind. He hasn’t laid out any clear agendas and he changes his position from hour to hour depending on the last person he talked to. He hasn't done anything except to undo everything that President Obama has done.
Trump has stripped all protections for LGBT people and he has given special rights for bigots to discriminate against us.
Trump has appointed judges who have said the Bible trumps the Consitution.
But most of all the Republicans failed to pass a budget when they had a whole year to do it. They structured the shutdown so that the military will not get paid this time. All they did was kick the can down the road… enough is enough. Pass a budget, stop the ban aids!
In Trump's own words in 2011 when the Republicans were posed to shutdown the government... "I actually think the president would be blamed." and in 2013, he said this about President Obama, "Whatever happens, you’re responsible. If it doesn’t happen, you’re responsible.”
I give the Republicans Trump the grade of “F” for the year.
