Trump's Legislative Agenda Is In a Complete Shambles

September 4, 2017 at 12:16 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard

Stan Collender: “Donald Trump last week suffered enormous setbacks on his three highest legislative priorities and Congress wasn’t even in session.”

“Each of these losses took away most or all of the leverage Trump is going to need to get Congress to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, fund his wall and do something on taxes. As a result, Trump’s legislative agenda, which was already in deep trouble before last week, is now in a complete shambles.”

where one person dictates and the other branches execute those directives.

Trump has never had to share power with anyone up until now.

The only consistant part of his agenda was the "erase Obama" from history part.

Right up there with "fuck everybody and make money for Trump."
