| Axelrod: You Can Argue Good or Bad, But Trump ‘Is Doing Consequential Things' |
| 2017-12-22 |
| [Breitbart] Wednesday on CNN, former Obama chief strategist David Axelrod said with the passing of the Republican tax plan and other policies he has forwarded President Donald Trump "is doing consequential things." Axelrod said, "It is advertised as something that will spur growth. We’ll see. The Fed and most experts suggest only modest job growth and gains. It is good for shareholders. But we will see all of that will reveal itself in the future. But it is a big policy shift, as these things often are. Certainly, on healthcare, it is going to make a big difference. It is added some preferences, taken some preferences out of the tax code. So this is big. His sort of rapid regulation of the environment, of consumer protection of finance, huge. His pulling out of global agreements, very, very big. So he is doing consequential things." He continued, "I have doubts about whether the consequences are going to be positive, but you cannot deny this is an impactful piece of legislation, and he has had an impact with some of his other policies." |

| #3 Scott Adams (Dilbert): The Turn to “Effective, but we don’t like it.” dated July 7, 2017. I predicted that the end of this three-part story would involve President Trump’s critics complaining that indeed he was “effective, but we don’t like it.” Or words to that effect. I based that prediction on the assumption he would get some big wins by the end of the year and it would no longer make sense to question his effectiveness, only his policy choices. |

| #2 He has doubts about whether the consequences are going to be positive for him. The fact that others exist who would benefit is completely out of his comprehension. It never entered his head to think about this and he would find it bizarre if you pointed it out to him. |

| #1 Axelrod hedging his bets after the 2016 election prediction debacle. He can't say it but he knows the country will be much better off. America is being made great again as we speak. |
