How Would You Rate Donald Trump’s Performance After One Year In Office As President?

Jeanine Crumpton…
I think Trump has made a mockery of the office and the position and it is saddening. I don’t even know who supports him anymore, he doesn’t support the people that support him and it’s just sad. He’s breaking hearts, he’s breaking spirits and it’s unfortunate. I think there’s hope in the fact that people are resilient, specifically us. We are a resilient people and we know how to handle these things and so you’re seeing people come out of the woodworks cause we’ve been doing things about injustice for a long time. So peopleare gaining the courage to run for office, to fight back, to push back, to be more involved locally, to educate children more, to just make sure this doesn’t happen again and I think that that’s the blessing to the curse that is freaking Trump.

Amaar Burton…
I don’t think it’s gone well. You know it’s a four year process, and the first year, I think a lot of it is about your ability to bring both sides together, Democrats and Republicans and obviously that hasn’t happened. It is still very divisive. As far as his policies and things, all I see so far is a lot of him trying to undo what President Obama did and some of those policies that Obama put in place were good policies and so it seems like he’s trying to undo a lot of them just because he wants to do the opposite of what Obama did. There hasn’t been any major crisis over the last year so I think that’s good, no new wars, but in general I’d say not good for the first year and you can kind of see by how low his approval rating are.

Willie Echols…
Trumps first year in office? Honestly as far as the economy it looks to be improving, him as a person and as the president utterly a disaster. The things that he says, his policies, the things that he’s done is just ridiculous. I think he needs to apologize to all races, especially the Black race, just for his antics. And his tweeting is just ridiculous that’s all I can say.

I believe that his behaviors mimics a person who is very, desperate and he is desperate because he followed President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, a Black man who is educated and so is his wife. He is having a difficult time with digesting the fact that the leader of the free world must accept all people as they are. This is a fight that we have been engaged in way before MLK and the Civil Rights movement and we are still fighting.When the leader of the free world behaves in the way that he does for instance to call a country a “S-hole country is deplorable. So he’s creating his own centripetal downward spiral.

Jimmy Price…
Donald Trump has done a pretty poor job as President representing all the people of the United States. He’s been critical of the African and Haitian nations and saying the ‘S’ word about them and I think this country has always been immigrant social and he has completely destroy that. He has gone against everything that President Obama established — the environment, free trade and a lot of social policies. He has completely turned against what this country stands for — democracy and the constitution. I don’t think he’s going to go down as even one of the worst presidents, I think he is the worst president.

Cynthia Brooks-Hassen…
I find it difficult to give President Trump a positive rating. He has diminished the role of the president worldwide. The world has lost trust in the United States. His antics, his inability to be truthful, his obsession with former President Obama and undoing all that he has done clouds this president’s judgment. He is not mentally fit for this office. Now no one comes into the office with experience, but most people have a sense of patriotism and education that gives them the fortitude to respect the office, yet this man lacks in education, common sense and the metal to be president.
