**THIS LIST WOULD EVEN BE INCREDIBLE IF IT COVERED HIS WHOLE EIGHT YEARS!!!**
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S 1st SIX MONTH ACCOMPLISHMENTS LIST Due to all of the negative media reports, especially the fake news, we should take time to realize just how many things President Trump has accomplished in less than six months! Here we go! . . .
* On the same day as his inauguration, Trump filed for re-election in 2020, breaking the political norm, giving him a head start on campaigning, and giving him additional legal freedoms and flexibility.
* Signed the first major national pro-life bill in more than a decade.
* Vice President Mike Pence became the first vice president in United States history to speak at the annual March for Life march in Washington D.C. Additionally, Trump senior advisor Kellyanne Conway also spoke at the event, and Trump himself strongly expressed his support for the march.
*. Neil Gorsuch confirmed as Justice on the Supreme Court *Brilliant Cabinet picks
*. SCOTUS upheld most of the travel ban Executive Order:
SCOTUS sent orders to the Supreme courts of California and Colorado to reconsider their opinions denying public funds to Christian schools after ruling in favor of Trinity Lutheran Church school to be allowed public funds for their playground.
*. Sending Education back to the States no more “Common Core”
*. Created Election Fraud Commission
* Used a Bluff to get Comey to speak the truth
*. The president and nine Trump Administration cabinet members, including Vice President Mike Pence, are participating in a weekly Bible study, and members of the House and Senate were also conducting their own Bible studies, returning to a nation “Under God”
*. Ended War on Christians; Executive Order suspending Johnson amendment
*. Proclamation to instituted a national day of patriotism for the country, Inauguration Day now the National Day of Patriotic Devotion
*. Proclamation May 1 as Loyalty Day, to “recognize and reaffirm our allegiance” to American values, such as “individual liberties, to limited government, and to the inherent dignity of every human being.”
*. July 1, 2017—President Trump held a “Celebrate Freedom Rally” in Washington D.C. to honor veterans and celebrate Independence Day. In it, he spoke again strongly in favor or religious liberty and stated that “since the signing of the Declaration of Independence 241 years ago, America always affirmed that liberty comes from our creator. Our rights are given to us by God, and no earthly force can ever take those rights away.”
*. First president since Ronald Reagan in 1983 to speak at the National Rifle Association’s annual convention.
*. Executive Order to perform an audit on every executive branch agency in order to reduce spending and waste and improve services
*. 5 year lobbying ban
*. Decreased US Debt by $100B Since Inauguration, debt grew by $560 billion by the same point in Obama presidency
*. Stock Market at an all time high

This is the same vein of tripe circulated around the internet during the last Administration. Saying that filing for re-election, holding bible studies and outright rhetorical inventions….make a mockery of his actualaccomplishments.
National Day of Patriotic Devotion and Loyalty Day have a very Sturmabteilung-esque rign to them…….

The LOYALTY DAY, that title, is a bit weird…but I believe what’s intended is for people to see the word LOYALTY and to wake up to how unloyal some are toward America and her Constitution.so, while it’s a kind of creepy name, i’m unsure it belongs on this list but I like how people at least consider the term loyalty again.
Kid, Mal, etc…I’m sorry any president has to do anything toward protecting Christians in any way…that’s scary and should be discussed.
I’ve been seeing so many things around the world against Christians…and it seems to me that the looser America (and Europe) gets on standing up for Christians as they certainly do for things-Muslim, it gives a kind of leeway to islamists to have their way, so to speak. It’s a dangerous thing.

Z, I wasn’t thinking about prayer groups (and actually forgot about that point in the list), more the point about ending the war on Christians.

Loyalty is an odd word. Patriot Day is more fitting and of course, participation is up to the individual.
I think patriotism is an important thing but not blind partiotism, rather from the aspect of how America created and maintained a much better standard of living than most other countries because of its inginunity and economic system and more. Seems most people under 40 or so think the Constitution should be run through the shredder. They should at least be taught of how it protects them from the government and (tries to) maintain a lawful society – never a bad thing.
LikeLike
Kid, ya, I agree…MUCH more important than the list point is ENDING THE WAR ON CHRISTIANS.
I actually just heard some other anti-Christian thing that happened in the Middle East and wondered how much Europe and America’s slamming Christianity SO much harder than they’d EVER dare to Islam isn’t kind of giving way to the beheadings and other awful things going on everywhere.
sort of like how there’s another American who’s been imprisoned in Iran for about a year, a Princeton student, and how countries are getting emboldened to do this stuff against US because of OUR LEFTWINGERS who don’t stand up for US. Kind of the same philosophy behind the anti-Christian and Anti-American thing.
If we don’t STAND UP for OURSELVES, who else would care? (until they need us, of course )
I couldn’t agree more with your other comment….well put.

Respectfully, I’m not following. How did a bible study help you, as an American? Make you feel better? Were those involved not attending church and/or bible study before the inauguration?
I’m not going to touch the “war” on Christians, but per the list above, Trump neither ‘suspended’ nor can suspend the Johnson Amendment.
We do already have a Patriot Day, observed as the National Day of Service and Remembrance, occurs on September 11 of each year in memory of the people killed in the 2001 September 11 attacks.
