Roosevelt could have done something for Israel, like predict a US Embassy located in Jerusalem, but he did nothing. He did not even raise alarm about the Nazi death camps.
Truman could have dealt with NoKo directly, and he could have done what Roosevelt didn’t, but he didn't.
Kennedy could have made the largest tax cut in history, and could have done what Roosevelt and Truman didn’t, but he didn't.
Johnson could have have lowered black unemployment, and he could have done what Roosevelt, Truman, and Kennedy didn’t, but he didn't.
Carter could have told Iran where to get off, and he could have done what Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, and Johnson didn’t, but he didn't.
Clinton could have made a better deal with NoKo, and he could have done what Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, Johnson , and Carter didn’t, but he didn't.
Obama could have recovered our economy, and he could have done what Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, Johnson , Carter, and Clinton didn’t, but he didn't.
All seven could have dealt with China, but they didn't.
The last seven Democrat presidents could have done these things, but none did. 
Trump did. Inside 3 years. Does he deserve 5 more, or what?

140M years ago, before man, placental mammals, having identical physiological systems to ours, evolved and thrived under climate conditions far more severe and variable than we experience today. So, what, exactly, is the crisis we face in 10 years, let alone now? It is an unproven issue. What, exactly, is our ideal climate condition, seeing as how the earth does not share a singular climate? One answer to our "crisis" is an evolutionary detail everyone forgets exists to potentially prevent extinction: adaptation. It is what our early ancestors [pre-human] did. Are we dumber than they were? It is either that, or we have defrocked Saint Darwin. Which is it, progressives?

Lacking a definitive statement [the Democrat platform of 2016 has not been updated] for 2020, I thought it necessary to post one for them.
Here's your Democrat platform for 2020:
  1. We don't want you born, because you'll just grow up and ruin the environment.
  2. We don't want you educated, so we'll make sure you learn a uniform code by common core.
  3. Should you want to be educated, we'll keep you in line without teaching anything that will conflict with what we tell you is true, and we can control it because it's free.
  4. Should your education still make you eligible for work, we'll make you pay union dues and high taxes so you can't build anything you might want to build. You don't build, anyway; we do.
  5. When you work yourself to death, we will have repealed the death tax ban, so your kids get nothing. You owe it to us anyway, because everything you got from us was free.

Tell me what is Green, New, and a Deal about the Green New Deal.
It is not green. Every single "green energy" turbine in existence uses petroleum as a lubricant, and as raw material to fabricate plastic parts. The same goes for solar panels and electric cars.
It is not new. We've been hearing about the same old complaints about man's inhumanity to the planet since the invention of plastic, peak oil, the population explosion, global warming, water bottles, and the wall.
It is no deal. $100 trillion. That's a deal?

Show me exactly where in 1A, 3A, 5A, 9A, and especially 14A [all of which except 14A lack the term "privacy" in any variation of the word, and all of which were used to support Roe v. Wade], where a woman's specific privacy, at the exclusion of a man's, is stipulated. Not to mention that, in the 14A, "secure in their persons" does not imply "privacy." One can be private and secure in a crowd, but insecure while private in their own home.
Don't bother looking; your answer s not in the Constitution However, don't let me convince you. Look.
Not to mention that the tissue inclusive of the fetus, umbilical, amniotic sac, and placenta, do not share DNA or blood with the mother; it is a completely separate and distinct entity. Not one whit of it is part of her body.
The proof: when a woman opens her mouth, her tongue does not fall out.

If healthcare is a right, why do people die waiting for organ transplants? If healthcare is a right, why haven’t we cured the common cold? If healthcare is a right, why do I need to have a license to practice medicine? If healthcare is a right, why shouldn’t you play in traffic? If healthcare is a right, why don’t you have ready answers for my questions? Because, if healthcare is not a right, why should it be free?

Is it time, yet, for us to wrestle control of education from the Democrats? If the above is the best that NYT & MessNBC can muster, I think it's time to admit that education truly is what you pay for it. Free is obviously a low-ball figure.
