    The greatest trick Donald Trump ever pulled was convincing the world that his presidency was floundering.http://thebea.st/2nJWhXo

        Sometime today, the Senate will confirm a 49-yr old Supreme Court Justice to a lifetime appointment. We're on, what, day 78?

        I can see one win here, Matt. And that's with a generous presumption of legitimacy vis-a-vis Merrick Garland.

        While he is repealing some of the Obama regulation; what he's doing is typical GOP dogma. There is nothing special or unique about it.

        His gift to Wall Street by gutting Dodd Frank, we expected. His gift to coal by allowing them to pollute the streams again, we expected.

        Keystone and Dakota access were all foregone conclusions. Its unlikely to become consequential president by doing typical Republican shit.

        Matt, you're a smart guy but you give Trump too much credit. No trick. He's still a dishonest impulsive buffoon.

        "Smart" is a real stretch here. Conduct = proof of character. MKL's take is remarkably free of sense or fact.

        Hah. More spin. If you have to attack a (pre-warned) airfield to shore up 34% approval ratings, you're neither clever nor winning.

        Lowest bar for success possible. Passed some lame executive orders and a SCOTUS nom. I'm dumber after reading that. Give me my 60 sec back

        EO's are easily reversed and hardly count as lasting wins. His only major legislative effort so far flopped. I remain unimpressed.

        Maybe Trump will win, but the American people (except far-right supporters/congressmen and their lobbyists) won't.
