Absolutely WONDERFUL! Thanks for asking.
Border crossings/arrests are way down (as Trump said they'd be).
ISIS has been destroyed under Trump (as he said it'd be).
North Korea is now being dealt with for once (as Trump said he would).
China has vowed to open up its trade system to make it more fair (like Trump said they would).
The economy continues to hum along.
Companies continue to post great earnings.
African Americans are starting to realize they've been played by the Democrats (Trump received 13% of AA males in 2016, the highest in decades.... he may get 20%+ in 2020, so watch out).
The Democrats are in desperation mode, as the NYT editorial board published themselves begging Justice Kennedy to not retire. RBG is not looking very well lately either.
The Russian-Trump colluuuuussssssion hoax is being validated more and more each day.
The Democrat/DC establishment-FBI-Comey-Lynch-McCabe-Strzok-Page actual collusion (conspiracy against the USA) is being validated more each day.
Liberals continue to whine and cry on a daily basis.
Mueller is grasping at straws with the only indictments related to the 2016 election being against 13 phantom Russian nationals that will obviously never be punished.
And, it goes without saying...
The clown is still Flagpole here on LRC.
So much craziness in this post, but I will respond to my favorites.
1) ISIS was on the brink of elimination under Obama. Trump did nothing more than continuing what was going on with Obama. WHOEVER was elected in 2016 would be the one presiding over the eventual demise of ISIS.
2) The economy was on the rise the last 7.5 years of Obama's presidency, and he handed it to Trump in great shape. We've actually hit a little bit of a lull as of late, and in 2018 the stock market has sucked (not something I would normally point out, buy Trump took credit for it going up in 2017, so he needs to take blame here then too).
3) Companies and their earnings -- see #2 above. Again, they did great under Obama too. Just a continuation of a rise out of the Great Recession that started under Bush.
4) Trump hasn't done one thing for Black people except to show them directly what a racist he is. Gotta take a brain surgeon and make him the head of HUD because he's black and HUD has the word "Urban" in it. Ridiculous. Makes sense that Trump has a Jewish lawyer too and that he has said he uses Jewish accountants. He is just so full of racism and racial stereotypes it isn't even funny.
5) The Russia Collusion HOAX is validated more and more each day? WOW! Dude, not only is that flat wrong, it is the opposite of what is true. Collusion (conspiracy) is well on its way to being shown. The Trump Tower meeting alone is enough, but now we have cooperators, we have Cohen who will flip (and who WAS in Prague), we have a call from Don Jr. to a blocked number (Trump Sr. uses a blocked number) right after the Trump Tower meeting. We have Don Jr. saying he loves the subject of the meeting and then he tells them when to release the dirt on Hillary "later in the summer". They then did that through Wikileaks. That is the very definition of conspiracy. Roger Stone, Kushner, Manafort, Don Jr. and Trump himself will all be charged with conspiracy, and there WILL be others too.
6) Mueller is far from grasping at straws. Who cares if the 13 Russian nationals will never be brought to justice? It would be good if they could be, but the fact they likely won't (they can't travel internationally any more) has nothing to do with Trump and whether he or his American clan are guilty.
Trump will be found guilty of;
Obstruction of Justice
Money Laundering
Bank Fraud and/or conspiracy to commit
Wire Fraud and/or conspiracy to commit
Emoluments Clause violation
Logan Act Violation (if they even want to pursue that...that is jaywalking compared to the rest)
Some sort of computer hacking violation or conspiracy to commit
Conspiracy with Russia
Some other crimes we don't even know about yet
And THEN on top of all that, he will be forced to admit he had sex with Stormy Daniels and facilitated the payment to her.
AND, there is a 50-50 chance (and likely even higher than that) that the $1.6 million payment to the Playboy Playmate who got pregnant and then aborted was because TRUMP got her pregnant. Seems Elliott Broidy wasn't a client of Cohen's, so that leaves either Sean Hannity or Donald Trump as the likely impregnator there. Hannity is an a$$hole, so I won't be surprised to learn it is him, BUT Trump has the history of f*cking everything, so it is more likely it is him. I say 80-20 chance it is Trump - 80 being Trump and 20 being Hannity.
Anyway, you are misguided to call the investigation a hoax. SO MUCH evidence to the contrary.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.
