USMNT captain Bradley attacks Trump as sports world rounds on travel ban
When Trump was elected, I only hoped that ... President Trump would be different than the campaigner Trump. That the xenophobic, misogynistic and narcissistic rhetoric would be replaced with a more humble and measured approach to leading our country. I was wrong. And the Muslim ban is just the latest example of someone who couldn’t be more out of touch with our country and the right way to move forward.

Re: Trumps First week
There's also the lame duck possibility. Leftists such as Dick Cheney and John McCain (and yes, I know they weren't "leftists" last week) mobilise effective opposition so that for the last three years and six months of his Presidency Trump can't get bills passed. His ego doesn't allow resignation so he plays a lot of golf.

Google offered me 222,000,OOO entries in .89 of a second. Of course i didn't check to see if they were all in English...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Snowflake "Generation Snowflake, or Snowflake Generation, is a term used to characterise young adults of the 2010s as being more prone to taking offence and less resilient than previous generations, or too emotionally vulnerable to cope with views that challenge their own." So called because they melt easily.

Not a huge number, but a few republicans have not been too keen on the immigration order.

Hopefully the perpetrators of this heinous crime were not Syrian refugees. More fuel for Trump's fire...

He certainly likes to lash out at anyone who disagrees with him, including senators of his own party.
"The joint statement of former presidential candidates John McCain & Lindsey Graham is wrong - they are sadly weak on immigration. " Trump on twitter.
