Want to blame his opponents only?

No, but so far I support what the President wants to do and see the opposition resorting to fear tactics and smear campaigns, as opposed to actually addressing the issues.

For starters, that would mean he underestimated his opponents. He did, actually. And that wasn't his only mistake - he got wrong his allies too.

He did? I think we were all well aware that the right likes to play dirty and deal with fear tactics. Sadly, a good portion of this country only listens to fear tactics. While I regret that the administration doesn't counter with their own fear tactics in order to accomplish the goals I support, that's not how I want progress made in this country anyway.

His approach is unrealistic.

Yes, I suppose the President's biggest failure is expecting Republicans to actually support things in a nonpartisan manner.

What's wrong with his staffing achievements? Even you have to know that by now. If his appointee is vulnerable to whatever critics can find, that means it was a mistake. Even if you personally think that appointee's views are great.

The fact that they're vulnerable to fear tactics and smear campaigns is a non-issue. Everyone is vulnerable to those things when the general public easily falls for them.

Wrong. You actually ignore strong majority of his opposition and focus on freaks.

I didn't know that Republican senators, governors and talking heads were all collectively freaks.

When you say that the President is too good for his country, you have to look at the situation again. Maybe you are missing something.

Like?
