Right. So if it worked, he gets the credit. If it failed, it was someone else's fault. So much for personal responsibility.

For example, he ran on building a wall, and while some progress was made, it clearly would have been completed had Democrats not refused to fund it. It is not reasonable to call that a "Trump failure". That is Democrat sabotage that was carried out specifically to block it. Listen to yourself. If that is the case, then it follows that all the obstruction, the "contrived, coordinated effort" to create failures, that the R's are doing now to hinder Biden's agenda would not be considered Biden's failure. Goose/gander. I keep pointing out that the clown failed on the 'big' things he ran on--JK There are always excuses and many of them are valid but when it comes down to whether you get done the big things you ran on...

The "wall" was a campaign slogan he forgot about for two years in which he had both houses of Congress and could have gotten whatever he wanted passed. Just as well as we didn't need a wall. It is not reasonable to call that a "Trump failure". That is Democrat sabotage that was carried out specifically to block it. Essentially every substantive failure was a result of partisan lying, blocking, collusion, hatred -- falsely predicated and without justification -- and without concern for the consequences for the country. If Trump had been an effective leader / executive, he'd have realized opposition comes with the territory.. But he wasn't so he acted like a baby every time he encountered opposition.
