Bannon is pulling the strings. What you don't get is that all the controversy around Bannon's policies are making Trump unable to get a legislative agenda through. The alt-right slop to the base is destroying Trump's effectiveness. Idiotic tweets are not helping either.
He can't pass anything without Schumer, and some of the GOP are nervous with what is going on right now. You forget that some GOP Senators are from moderate states with diverse populations, and others like McCain and Graham are not impressed with the Russian ties.

You honestly think a person of Trump's temperament isn't Easy Meat for a manipulative confidant who knows how to stroke his ever-needy ego?

It was your fucking idiot king who stood before the drooling masses and claimed he would create a middle class blue collar workers paradise on "day one".............
We're just trying to hold the jackass to his word.
Day one? It's been a month and Detroit is still a shithole. Your incompetent king sucks.

Detroit has been sinking into the shithole for 40 years.
It's not going to get fixed in a month.
Or a year, or even a decade.

Don't hold your breath.
President Trump’s pledge to create a program that funds $1 trillion in new infrastructure programs has kicked off with numerous meetings but few firm decisions, beset by understaffing, bureaucratic challenges and major questions about how to pay for everything.
Trump promised in a February speech to Congress that a $1 trillion infrastructure rebuilding plan would create “millions of new jobs,” but few of those jobs are expected to materialize this year, because no firm deadlines have been set and much of the planning could spill into 2018.

No real change ever comes from the establishment.
As for the middle class, they are the ruling classes insurance policy against them being put to the Guillotine. The ruling class knows that most people will accept the status quo if they are allowed a few crumbs from their table.
Take yourself. You would never revolt against the status quo as long as you have your navy pension, tricare, and a cushy government job. You've been paid off. That's why you are a supporter of the same shit, different day corporate Democrats.
Take those away and you would become a so************************t overnight.

Right TJ. You are a real rebel sucking on LBJ's Medicare, FDR's Social Security and Obama's ACA, and whatever glitch you are suffering from probably a result of choices you made. Oh yeah and your Florida state retirement.
If you read between the lines of your posts you are just pissed off that you have to pay for some parts of your care. A real progressive would shut up and pay their bill and be happy that others who can't got the Medicaid expansion.
Like I said call your Congressman if the family glitch is hurting you or get a part time job for the money you need.
Yeah I do have it easier. Perhaps I made better choices than you.

I don't know Dude.
I have it pretty easy these days.
I do have a few regrets though.
They mostly involve chicks.

I readily admit with pride that I am on the government gravy train.
You on the other hand get all feisty and defensive when I point out the fact that you are on it too.
What's the prob Ice?
You feel guilty?
