I understand not wanting to give someone you despise credit for anything. Some Democrat politicians are going through the motions of giving Trump any props while downplaying the achievement at the same time, others will simply ignore it altogether. Hitlery Clinton said it was a positive first step, but that's about all that could have been expected from that woman.

They are all lying if they claim they don't want the whole thing to crash. Trump pulling this off does nothing to help the Democrat Party agenda, and thus is not considered a good thing in any way shape or form. That and only that is the only thing that matters. The fake half smile is just that, it isn't real.
