I don't think that's quite the same thing... - sm

Obamacare:
Trump (and I would assume his supporters) realize that the president doesn't write the laws. It's on Congress to repeal and replace anything. Congress failed, not Trump. Yes, Trump and his supporters expected Congress to repeal and replace it based on what they had said. They didn't. That's on Congress, not Trump.

Even Dems realize that if Obamacare isn't fixed it will fall apart soon. That's not exactly repeal, but it won't be hard to repeal it after it turns the corner and kills the insurance market.

The Wall:
We see prototypes being built. He's talking about funding it and trying to cut a deal with Dems over the Dreamers. It's not there yet, but it's obvious he's working on it.

Middle class tax relief:
This is it. CNN Money defines the middle class as having incomes between $46k and $140k. That's me! I'm going to save money on my taxes under the new plan.

Here's my reference:

Google "tax plan calculator" and plug in the numbers from last year's 1040 to see how much you'd save.

Improved infrastructure:
Yep. You got that one. I'll give you that. Obama promised it too and didn't get it done in 8 years. I'm not sure Trump supporters will hold this against him, but you're right on this point. So far...

New jobs:
The unemployment rate is down. The stock market is up. The economy is growing at a faster rate than it ever did under the last president. I'm not sure if that works out to "thousands of new jobs" but it's definitely moving in the right direction.

All in all you make some good points. However, most people realize campaign promises are meant to be kept sometime during the duration of the presidential term. It's a little premature to criticize the lack of accomplishments of someone who hasn't even served 25% of their first term.

While I'd agree with you on the hard facts, I don't agree that he's failing or misleading his supporters. Things are moving in the direction Trump said they would. His supporters have reasons to believe he's going to get these things done.
