He's also quite right in demanding Europe spend more for their own defense. Talking to Kim was controversial and still is to me, but that's not a negative in principle (the actual result and him saying threat averted and that he alone has avoided a certain war destroys it pretty much for me though). Enforcing a red line in Syria regarding chemical attacks was ok for me too.
Of course the economy is good, but I am not certain how much credit Trump deserves for that, and I also believe the price (deficit, environment) is too high if these things are responsible for that.

There certainly are things some will percieve as good, but I won't, like the Keystone pipeline, Paris accord, tax cuts etc.

Meh, I'm sure you guys have a different meaning for objective than I. I consider objective to be: not influenced by personal feeling. 

I consider removal from the TPP to be a sound decision and not one seeded in personal feelings. Of course the argument can be made that every decision POTUS makes is influenced by personal feeling. I do not find his decision to remove us from TPP was based on emotion. I feel it was based on sound business strategy. As is his current "trade war". But if folks do not want to give him credit for anything they can always find a "reason" not to. It's a symptom of TDS.
