Lashing back at the "failing" New York Times and criticism he has yet to keep his major campaign promises, President Donald Trump tweeted reminders of his moves to work away from the past administration's major policies.
President Trump was referring to Peter Baker's piece Saturday in The New York Times titled "Promise the Moon? Easy for Trump. But Now Comes the Reckoning."
"President Trump leaves little doubt about what he thinks of his predecessor’s top domestic and international legacies," Baker wrote. "The healthcare program enacted by President Barack Obama is 'outrageous' and 'absolutely destroying everything in its wake.' The nuclear deal with Iran is 'one of the worst and most one-sided transactions the United States has ever entered into.'
"Yet as much as he has set his sights on them, Mr. Trump after nearly nine months in office has not actually gotten rid of either. Instead, in the past few days, he took partial steps to undercut both initiatives and then left it to Congress to figure out what to do next. Whether either will ultimately survive in some form has become a central suspense of Mr. Trump’s first year in office."
