I like that he has: Withdrawn from the tpp. Is currently renegotiating nafta. Mattis is an excellent choice. Tillerson is an excellent choice. Is supporting Saudi Arabias "Vision 2030" plan, which attacks the root cause of radical islamic terrorism (economics). Is in the process of draining the swamp (Susan rice and the unmasking scandals). I've made and realized a shit ton of money off the stock market since he got elected. Obamacare is gone and is in the process of being replaced. Jobs are coming back. He supports laws and law enforcement over criminals. Edit to add: Gorsach is an excellent supreme court choice. I'm glad that corrupt comey was fired. In the process of reseting nato relations and getting everyone to pay their fair share. Mattis is handling north korea expertly. Oh, he avoided starting ww3 against russia after obama tried to start it in his last few months in office. Also, jury is still out, but there has also been lots of work done on China and their whole basket of problems. And, most importantly, acknowledges and recognizes that us Americans from flyover country are not red neck slaves to the self righteous smug ass coastal cities and their out of touch political elites.

Some comments on your points. I know you didn't ask but couldn't help myself. Withdrawn from the tpp / Agreed. Seemed like an overall bad deal for the US. TBD on what overall impact will be. This was going to make the US have better economic ties to other Asian countries. Now they're turning to China even more. Seems like if we don't put something like this in place then we will lose more in the long run. Renegotiating nafta / We'll have to wait and see what happens. He hasn't been able to get anything through that requires collaboration with other parts of government. Mattis is an excellent choice / Sure, why not. Tillerson is an excellent choice / Seems like a massive conflict of interest considering the massive web that surrounds him and Russia. He's inexperienced and looks like he's getting pushed around out there. And is it not apparent that his sole job is to help that oil deal with Russia sealed! Is supporting Saudi Arabias "Vision 2030" plan / Seriously? Saudi basically created muslim extremists. They've been building schools that export extremist views for decades (google saudi arabia exporting wahhabism). They're also on a war path. How the hell are they going to create peace in the region? I guess they could kill everyone that opposes them, that'd probably be their best shot. Draining the swamp / What? How? You mean firing government employees and replacing them with inexperienced yes men? He's refilling the swamp with something just as bad. All the lobbyists are there. All the career politicians are there. All the money flowing in is still happening. I fail to see the benefit with his version of draining the swamp. I've made and realized a shit ton of money off the stock market / You could've made more money on the stock market under Obama's first 100 days (2nd term; not his first term he saved the country from one of its worst recessions): http://www.marketwatch.com/story/how-trumps-stock-market-ranks-on-his-100th-day-in-office-2017-04-29 http://www.marketwatch.com/story/how-trumps-stock-market-ran... Obamacare is gone / Not quite. Remember he hasn't been able to get agreement on anything. Healthcare was harder than anyone thought! Jobs are coming back / Where is your evidence that they are coming back because of Trump? I know a few corps announced their "plans" to bring jobs back. Many of those are shady. Job growth seems like a continuation of what was happening under Obama (yes, Obama had tremendous job growth numbers). He supports laws and law enforcement / Everyone supports this. Cops are still getting killed under Trump. There is still civil unrest, perhaps more now that he has empowered white supremacists. I fail to see what's changed.
