On Saturday, the Trump administration will reach the historical marker of 100 days in office. And this so-called president hasn’t accomplished a single thing. He has failed at his travel ban, the repeal and replacement of Obamcare, his oft-promised wall on the Southern border, tax reform, etc. The number of legislative accomplishments he has in his first three months is easy to calculate. You start and stop at the number zero.

Some conservative historians were recently asked to evaluate and comment on Trump’s 100 days, and what most of them had to say will not exactly make the alleged head of state the least bit happy:

Daniel Pipes–Professor of public policy at Pepperdine University and the president of the Middle East Forum

“Donald Trump as president hardly differs from Trump as candidate: a blowhard who insouciantly breaks with customs and laws, delighting his fans and infuriating the rest of the world, sometimes getting it right but more often proving ineffectually amateurish. The great question is whether he will learn from his many mistakes and turn into a more conventional, respectable, and intelligent president – or whether he will continue in the same mold through the whole four-year period. I am pessimistic. However, if he is egregious enough and Republican members of Congress sick enough of him, we could well have a President Pence.”

Robert Merry–Editor of The American Conservative

“Whether Russia, Syria, China’s trade posture, the World Bank, NATO, or draining the swamp, Trump has abandoned not just a promise or two, but the entire rationale of his campaign. This is the greatest open display of political cynicism in American history.”

Andrew Bacevich

“Trump is not a conservative. Nothing that he represents, says, or has done deserves the support of principled conservatives.

“Donald Trump’s first 100 days have seen the appointment and termination of decorated general Michael Flynn from the Defense Intelligence Agency, the eclipse of former Breitbart News executive Steve Bannon, a steady decline in the relationship with Russia, the bombing of Syria, a failed attempt to repeal and replace Obamacare, and two failed attempts to impose a ban on certain groups of immigrants. This wasn’t exactly what Trump promised.”

I’m not a historian, but based on what I’ve seen so far, if Trump’s first 100 days were a term paper turned in as part of a class I teach, he’d get a D at best. And that’s if I was feeling particularly charitable that day.
