That's what I've been gathering too. Trump signed a few bills recently, and while they weren't his administration's bill in the first place, that hasn't stopped the media (and definitely social media) from trash talking Trump constantly.
It's almost as if people that hate Trump with the ferocity that they do are incapable of reporting anything positive and just saying "Ok, this was a good thing."
Someone I worked with once told me that putting anything he does in a good light risks "normalizing his behavior". Shows how polarized these times are.

This is a bizarre statement. If he's signing the bill, his administration - and him specifically - is explicitly endorsing it. That's the whole point of the thing.
He is responsible for what he signs, regardless of origination. He has the option to not sign if he objects to one; it's entirely fair to criticize him for signing a particular bill into law even if it originated somewhere else.

Have a look at places like r/politics on Reddit. People were seriously arguing with me that his nasty tweets were more serious than the possibility of North Korean nuclear disarmament.
The possibility of North Korean nuclear disarmament is pretty close to zero - especially after Bolton started spouting off about a Libya-style ending for Kim Jong-Un.
The chances of Trump tweets ramping up tension to the point where a mistake gets made and North Korea shells some South Koreans seems higher. It's not like they've needed much provocation to do that in the past.
