Is there anything about Trump 2 you disagree with? If so, what?

Biden was dogshit too. Trump 1 was a great term. No new wars, economy roaring on wall st and with jobs, tax cuts, cut regulation, border secured, didn’t piss off half the world. Shame he couldn’t just replicate that.

I wasn't talking to you.

Trump has been in office 18 months out of 48. He has faced just a little bit of pushback from radical judges, msm, and nut jobs much more this time. I love how you people think it is just easy to fix something that has been installed for over half a century or more. The media plays a part to make things look worse, because they know the lower intellect types will swallow what they passing out. It takes a strong, intelligent person to stand up against what is being thrown out through the media. I have not been hurt at all this term.....in fact interest rates are better than what Biden caused us. Not wasting anymore time on you....you seem to know it all and if you were in charge it would be much better I'm sure. Quit blaming everyone, and make your own way in life.

Uhhhh….trump 2.0 has been orders of magnitude better on the border and deportation than trump 1.0. Also, unlike trump 1.0, trump 2.0 actually achieved his legislative goals (massive ICE funding, tax cut extension, Medicaid reform, etc)


I agree that tariffs are the big elephant in the room

But you are flat out wrong that trump 1.0 was better on immigration

What’s he even trying to accomplish at this point? Can you articulate it?

And I’m doing just fine. Thanks for asking. I’m not dumb enough to think my personal situation is indicative of what is going on in the United States.

I didn’t say or mean to imply he was better on the border in term 1. Obama also left him a better situation in 2016 than Biden. We did not have true open borders until 2021-24.

Indoctrination works-if you teach children that human nature can be perfected through government-and tell that perfection is actually possible-they will become these slack jawed idiots. It's a faith-but sadly a faith that has been disproven time and again.

Even through Russiagate and the Ukraine impeachment, it was like halcyon days back then until COVID (and you will never hear me trash him on COVID other than to say that CARES Act lit the match or poured gas on inflation). I don't remember how we was on the border then, but if he has improved on that, credit to him.

We're involved in a pointless conflict 6,000 miles away, he wants a 1.5 trillion defense budget because we don't have enough missiles and our Navy is breaking down, and signs are flashing red on the economic situation. It's not good. But, we're fighting wokism, so I guess that's a win.

This is what happens when you import the 3rd world for 30 years and grant birthright citizenship.

I also disagree that trump 1.0 was more legislatively successful. He got generic establishment gop tax cuts. He failed on healthcare, failed on infrastructure, among others including failing to get border wall funding

The OBBB:

1) extended term 1 tax rates
2) largest funding expansion of immigration enforcement in US history
3) border wall funding
4) fulfilled campaign promise of no tax on tips and SS
5) reformed Medicaid (something he failed to do in term 1)


Not to mention smallest federal workforce since 1965


If the economy was better and inflation lower, his term would be considered more successful than term 1

I view Trump 1 and 2 the same.

Trying everything to help Americans and being attacked by literally anyone who’s not truly American.

Blunders

Trump 1- Couldn’t handle the Covid/lockdown/election rigging attack.

Trump 2- Handling of Iran.

Honestly. Just wish he was more aggressive and became the tyrant we need.

COVID was not his doing. The Iran war blunder is 100% on him.

I personally don’t care if someone wants to transition their five year old. But, I totally understand why parents don’t want an overly aggressive pro-transgender agenda shoved down our throats. I think the cultural pushback on that and BLM insanity we were put through is healthy.

Agreed. That entire period was an attack. They used Covid as an excuse to tank the economy and rig elections. We’re still paying dearly for it.

I think the blunder was him trusting Fauci and even entertaining lockdowns.

This lead to the stolen election, 10s of millions more illegals, forced vaccines and so much more.

That said. It wasn’t him attacking America like the DSA will continue to do.

How do you feel Biden's term went, in terms of improving this country?


Horrendous. Arguably the worst administration in the US.

No

No

Inflation through the roof?


Biggest issue on your list and Trump is equally as responsible for the current inflation crisis.

Fraud everywhere?


Major issue. But Trump’s second term is far from free of fraud.

I get that Biden wasn't the man leading the country, but he gets all the credit.


Why compare Trump to Biden? Trump has failed to deliver on most of his campaign promises and, in some cases, has made things worse. The country is going to respond by electing leftists and we are going to go through a world of pain as a result.
