that was the mantra right out of the gate deny and blame.

Sounds like Trump's excuse. Every issue he attempts to tackle he starts off by telling us, "you know I really inherited a mess".
No you didn't Don. And even if you did. Didn't you know that when you decided to run?
You guys seem to care what some countries think but not others. If the other countries opinion favors Trump you brag and if you don't like it you blow it off.
Trump says he inherited a mess. What's the world think?
A Pew Research poll of 37 nations showed President Obama got much higher ratings on the world stage than Trump does today.
“To be honest, I inherited a mess,” Trump said, in a news conference that lasted more than an hour and was at times rambling, combative and pointed. “It's a mess. At home and abroad, a mess. Jobs are pouring out of the country.”
Yet moments later, the president seemed to acknowledge the widespread reports of turbulence and upheaval emanating out of his West Wing, only to claim that his White House — which so far has been marred by staff infighting, a controversial travel ban, false statements and myriad leaks — was operating seamlessly.
“I turn on the TV, open the newspapers and I see stories of chaos — chaos,” he said. “Yet it is the exact opposite. This administration is running like a fine-tuned machine, despite the fact that I can't get my Cabinet approved.”
