Bloomberg News is out with an article this afternoon that claims that President Trump just suffered a triple "fail" with Mexico, Iran and Immigration. According to the article, since Trump announced what action he would be taking, he failed because he didn't go ahead with those actions. It makes me wonder what world the Bloomberg writers are inhabiting.
Trump threatened tariffs on Mexico unless is took steps to close the flow of illegals to our border. Mexico immediately agreed to put 6000 more people on its border with Guatemala and to refuse entry to those who do not have proper travel documents. That move will stop the caravans and the other massive flows of people from Central America who have been pouring over our southern border. The Mexicans agreed to even more, but this move alone was enough for the President to hold back on his imposition of tariffs. That's a success; it's not a "fail". And let's also add that just today, CNN (of all places) is reporting that Mexico has put 15,000 police and troops on the Mexican side of the border with the USA in order to stop illegals from crossing. SUCCESS!!!
Iran attacked an unmanned US drone. The USA prepared to launch a military strike n retaliation which must be approved by the President. Just before the launch, Trump decided not to use the military in the response. Instead, there was a cyber attack and the imposition of new sanctions on Iran. That avoided a possible war with Iran. Only a crazy leftist at Bloomberg could call that a "fail". Would he prefer that we were at war with Iran?
On immigration, Trump authorized a step up in immigration enforcement against those with outstanding deportation orders. He held off for two weeks at the request of the Speaker of the House, Democrat Nancy Pelosi, to give Congress one last chance to act. That's not a fail under any definition of the word. Wouldn't it be great if the Democrats actually agreed to make the needed changes to the rules for asylum requests together with an increase in funding for the detention centers in exchange for some other item regarding immigration that they want like some sort of DACA fix? That would be a win for the American people, not a fail for Trump.
It doesn't matter what Trump does, however, for the sufferers of Trump derangement syndrome -- which includes most of the media.
