Further more, we can see evidence of others sidelining him. Prominent Republicans ignored the president’s instructions to continue working on healthcare and instead turned to tax policy. “Trump has proven to be a relatively weak president. He hasn’t learned how to use the powers of the office,” says John Sides, a political scientist at George Washington University. “It’s difficult for other political actors to take him seriously.”
And those pesky Russians? Prime Minister Dimitri wrote on Facebook "The Trump administration has shown its total weakness by handing over executive power to Congress in the most humiliating way . . . The US establishment fully outwitted Trump; the president is not happy about the new sanctions, yet he could not but sign the bill.”
Mentioning Russians, talk that special counsel Robert Mueller has convened a grand jury to investigate alleged ties between Mr Trump’s 2016 campaign and the Russian government only sets the scene for more interesting times ahead.

That's typical of Russia not understanding there is three branches of government in play. All independent of each other.
And yet after all that questionable above, US jobs, US economy, all up considerably under the Trump Presidency. In July, over 200K extra jobs.
And you still doing it again with polls. I take no notice of them at all. Remember that 90% chance that Killary would win Presidency in a landslide, that there was no path to Trump winning. What total bollocks all this turned out to be.

The wider point that they're not interested in the Clintons is surely difficult when they, more than anyone else, were doggedly chasing the e-mail story (as in breaking news about it, rather than the conspiracy stuff).

Not a big deal ?
Of course it's a big deal, it's called one sided biased Journalism. You know the type of media outlet that gives the questions to Hillary, to help her cheat in the Bernie Sanders Primaries debate.
