There’s a lot of euphoria and triumphalism right now among Trump supporters, and even among Trump-skeptical conservatives. It’s easy to get carried away in the whirlwind of activity emanating from the desk of a man who even announced in the middle of the Super Bowl that he is abolishing the penny. But it’s too soon to spike the football or — for that matter, if you’re a Trump critic — to rend your garments. A lot of what Trump is doing now will take eight years to complete.
He has only four, of course. And thus far since his return to the presidency, Trump has passed no new treaties through the Senate. He has seated no new judges on the bench. He has yet to propose, let alone pass, a budget.
