He's done a handful of good things .... mostly appointments that any Republican would've made. But for every good appointment there is a bad one.

He has also sowed the seeds of two possible future wars.

NK - he's blown hard and done nothing, likely convincing NK's leaders he's a weakling and encouraging more aggressive actions. He thinks he can make friends w/ Putin and Xi and they'll handle Kim for him. But despite what they might tell him with a smile they have absolutely no interest in actually restraining NK.

Europe - he campaigned on suggestions he'd cut defense ties to NATO, lift sanctions, recognize the Crimean seizure ... iow give Russia everything it wanted for NOTHING. Putin was overjoyed but now he's seeing that the POTUS can't deliver. He raised expectations and we're quite likely to see more aggression from Putin. This happened before!

Palin was right(!) years ago when she said Obama's appeasement might lead to an attack on Ukraine. Downright prophetic. Appeasement DOES lead to aggression. The last three Presidents have come into office determined to have a good relationship with Putin, make him a friend. And Putin treated them all like saps.

A Marine general just told troops in Norway he thinks a war is on the way. To be ready for it. Don't be surprised if a NATO member is attacked.
