I'm not a republican, and (like almost all people of color), I wouldn't have considered voting for a flawed person like the orange dude.  However, I was excited that since republicans controlled the white house and congress, something might get done.  But the orange dude is so inept that nothing is happening. Pence would be a president with an asterik until he gets destroyed in the 2020 campaign.  But it's better than the alternative.
