You really expect people to believe that after all the shit he's said about everything from bragging about sexually assaulting women, immigrants whose only crime was being a child when their parents brought them here, the lbgtq community, mocking a critical journalists physical disability, openly refusing to enforce sanctions passed by a veto proof majority of congress, playing more golf in a year than Obama did his entire first term after mockingly promising not to do so. Using Secret Service funds to rent golf carts from clubs owned by his companies and a host of other alleged violations of the emoluments clause of the Constitution.

Throwing a ton of recycled bullshit to see what sticks? Or just trying to waste peoples' time debunking or clarifying those claims? At any rate, most of those are silly manufactroversies. The only real give there is the golfing, although at least some of those trips have been with world leaders. However, he's done far less *drinking* than Obama and certainly less than any other president.

As for DACA, he's waffled on that when he really should have picked a firm stance and gone with it. Most of the problem with DACA is that it's a backdoor path to citizenship for the rule-breaking parents who cut in line. And, frankly, programs like DACA just encourage bad conduct including encouraging parents to send their kids across the border.

Repeatedly showing a lack of capability and understanding of his duties and privileges as chief executive and head of state. Eraticaly switching his position on legislation when his own party supports it. Failing to gain support to fully fund his government despite his party controlling both houses of congress, getting American service men killed ordering a fruitless and poorly planned raid against suspected terrorist installations in an allied nation without their consent less than three months after assuming office against military advise and contradictory intelligence. Spearheading a tax bill that most economists not employed by pro GOP interests and congresses' own independent economic advisory board deemed highly unsound at best. And a variety of less publicized slights to the dignity and reputation of his office and the Nation's reputation.

Again, nothing more than throwing bullshit and seeing what sticks. More importantly, the mission you're likely citing was one that Obama had planned on signing off on but only delayed because of weather conditions, which just makes the position even more insincere.

You honestly don't think that this is a problem? Never mind several of his campaign and personal staff being indicted for crimes against the United States by a lawfully assembled Federal Grand Jury while several others compelled resign in disgrace and his own questionable involvement in those crimes.

The issue there is scrutiny. The Trump administration is under far greater scrutiny than past administrations so the usual malfeasances which might be overlooked are magnified. That said, he hasn't done anything like firing the White House's travel agency so he could give the contract to his friend's firm -- something that Clinton did, after which he was forced to remove his cronies and reinstate some of the fired workers.
