Not well tbh. But he's handling other things better. You win some, you lose some.

Alright. What is an example of something he handled well?

Doge is the biggest one. Doge is finding a lot of government waste. Sure, it's being a little quick at times, but I'd honestly prefer that approach versus nothing ever getting done which is what's been happening for decades now.

Yikes. I couldn't disagree with you more on this one. And it's barely even trump doing it, it's mostly another billionaire oligarch, so that's an interesting example.

I thought conservatives wanted to mostly preserve what we already have. But trump this term is doing nothing but burning shit down and causing chaos.
