On this holiday weekend we thought it would be a good time to review a number of views of President Trump. In fairness we have not included any Democrats in this review because we want to exclude partisanship as much as possible. Occasionally someone with sympathies for the Democratic party does appear but that was unavoidable if we were to include the Republican (or Republican sympathizing) personage(s).

The following videos are representative of opinions from people who are generally considered to be conservatives in general and/or Republicans in particular. The opinions expressed are varied.
First we have a video of the presidential cabinet meeting held 12 June 2017 where each cabinet member had the opportunity to address President Trump.
The next video is a mixed bag. It starts with praise of the president by congressional leaders at the White House 20 December 2017 and then moves on to a critique by Joe Scarborough (Morning Joe, MSNBC), a former GOP congressman and commentary by other program guests.
The Rev. Franklin Graham spoke out regarding the president on Fox News in January.
Earlier this month Kanye West offered an endorsement of the president.
Trump supporters in Youngstown, Ohio (many former Democrats) discuss how well the president is doing in January 2018.
Conservative commentator Bill Kristol discussed the Trump presidency with Jack Goldsmith, professor of Law at Harvard and former member of the G.W. Bush administration. The focus was on how President Trump is affecting American institutions.
Finally, Steve Schmidt, a Republican strategist and former presidential campaign manager (John McCain, 2008) unloaded on the president recently.
