I really wanted the buck to stop at Pelosi as the boogey man, but Trump’s family is earning multiple billions of the presidency. Pelosi is just doing insider traded, illegal, but still pales in comparison


No other presidential administration has personally grown their own wealth or their family’s at such a level. The amount of corruption that’s right before our eyes is staggering. Meanwhile the likes of this site will argue over culture war nonsense.

for me it's simple. Start working on your campaign promises (lowering prices, ending foreign wars, slashing waste in the federal government and returning it to the people) and stop making a mockery of the office with these rambling and delusional truth posts.

I proudly voted for him based on his 1st term and so far he has not delivered his second

Even if the BS you said, were true, better their net worth increase by hundreds of millions in business deals, than Democrats shoveling billions into leftwing NGOs that turn around and fund more Democrats.

The Democrat party is an absolute cancer.

A Kamala presidency would have been an absolute disaster.

He is going to end up a top 5 President




Fast-tracking a poisonous "vaccine", overseeing a major covid clusterfrick at its genesis, starting another directionless war in the middle east, overseeing a shitty economy and likely being the spark that finally gets the socialist ball rolling in American politics is pretty damned far from top 5.

Trump had a promising vision. Most of it he never delivered on and several things he outright lied about. He's a loudmouth clown and a troll. Nothing more.

Yeah cause she definitely would’ve spiked inflation higher, raised the national debt faster than expected, entered into yet another war, and personally grown her wealth to likes we’ve never seen before. Oh wait…

The Kamala shite is cope. You might not like her but it’s also not hard to admit Donny has completely shat the bed. She lost… the whataboutism is pointless. You’ve got shite on your hands now but being glad you don’t have puke on them is laughable.

Maybe so. Who knows what that disaster would look like.

Maybe she’d have economic policies and trade wars that would result in increasing inflation.

Maybe she’d start wars in the ME that would drive up oil costs and reduce the US global standing.

Maybe she’d have masked authorities who are untrained that would result in shooting US citizens in the streets.

He can redeem himself by doing the following:

- get out of Iran by any means necessary; and
- focus 100% on domestic issues, especially affordability

what can President Trump do to finish this term on a positive note?

Trump ran on four core commitments:

-Lower prices

-End foreign wars

-Slash federal waste

-Return power to the people

None of those have been delivered in a meaningful way this term. Prices are still elevated, foreign entanglements have expanded in some areas, federal spending hasn’t been cut, and the “drain the swamp” message rings hollow when the family’s net worth is exploding.

People didn’t vote for Truth Social rants, impulsive ceasefires, or chaotic foreign-policy pivots. They voted for results similar to what they saw in the first term. So far, they haven’t gotten them.

If he wants to salvage the term, it starts with actually doing the things he campaigned on — not the distractions, not the theatrics, not the grievance-posting. Deliver on the promises or stop pretending the base is the problem.

His presidency is basically over. At the least the democrats will win the house and spend 2 years doing investigations on Trump and his family, impeachments etc. he will get nothing passed.
The Trump term 2 got off to a great start. The tariffs that he put in place when basically everybody in the legal world said they would get overturned was the first huge screwup. So the people paid the tariffs and the huge corporations got the refunds and the people just got screwed.
Second is obviously the Iran war. If he says the reason was to keep them from getting nuclear weapon then that is what Operation Midnight Hammer did. The additional bombing was just stupid and now Iran will just randomly bomb ships in the strait for his entire term.

Dude, you listed a bunch of small fry stuff and claim it’s the big fry stuff. There’s nothing even remotely out of bounds of almost everything you listed.

That’s all it is. End of the day just like your topic trumps support and approval is pretty much 50-50. That’s pretty good considering everything that has been said about him and how hard everyone works against him.

If it is right before our eyes, then where is the proof?
I have heard this from a lot of people yet everything they point to is speculative, not concrete proof., yet they usually act - like you do - that is so obvious. Seems odd.
