W had helped put together the deal that got the Rangers purchased, the new Ballpark built and then saw them sold for a profit. He was then elected Governor of Texas where he actually did a good job of managing getting the state to it's current strong position. He had far more leadership marks on his resume going into the presidency than anyone that has run in the past 12 years.
Let's see not diplomatic I agree with, did appoint Gorsuch and may get to appoint a few more, turning back Obama mistakes in EPA, and some on AHCA so far. Rino and Dems against him doing what he promised would get done so it's hard when even your own team won't do what they promised which is why some of them will lose seats in 18. Everything else you mentioned describes Obama and Hillary as well. Both are liars, neither is diplomatic to Americas advantage and both are incompetent. So,,,, yeah.
