A for me. Not sure what there is to not like. Considering he is still dealing with some count republicans too interested in appeasing dems.

Dude is bringing the heat from every direction and not giving pussyfied NATO members a pass.

So lightyears ahead of 9% with the liberals and Biden
Not really. 9% was peak inflation in 2022. It was 2.9 in 2024.

Joe ended his term with 3% rate. So that means that during Trump's time in office so far, he has increased the inflation rate.


Joe entered his term with a 1.4% inflation rate and had a cumulative inflation rate of 21-22% over four years. The only President in modern American history with a worse cumulative inflation rate was Jimmy Carter.

I think Trump Term 2 has been wildly disappointing but Biden's presidency was among the worst in US history.

Trump's first term was good--which is why I didn't mind him winning.

This term has gone completely off the rails so far. He hasn't passed any meaningful policy and seems to put more effort into creating these vanity project bills, more so than actual economic policy. No need to discuss the failed tariffs and the war in Iran.

First term- B+
Second Term- D-

D.

Still time to turn that around, but thus far, I’ve been disappointed.

What modern president has ever had to deal with a global pandemic? I don't care who would have won; they would have had high inflation.

It depends what you want to focus on:
Border: A.
Immigration: B+/A-.
Tariffs: no idea how you even begin to evaluate this.
Foreign policy: D.
FBI/DOJ overhaul/smashing the deep state: D.
MAHA: not sure.
Fiscal restraint: C-, but not all his fault.

The inflation spike globally was caused by poor US economic policy in dealing with COVID which all came from Biden's White House.

False

Worldwide inflation was nearly 9%. How did Biden's policy create worldwide inflation?

Also, why do you guys compare Trump to Biden if he is so bad? Greats compare themselves to greats.

How does Trump's inflation rate compare to Obama's?

D+/C-

This term, at least for me anyway, was all about him. Stroking his own ego. Not putting Americans first. Clearly didn’t look out for Americans this go-round which is is a huge disappointment.

With the lack of changes he has made, wouldn’t be surprised Don finds himself in hot water post-Presidency due to his arrogance.

Oh, and he isn’t exactly lighting it up for the post-Trump era for next in line to the figurative throne. In a couple months, a lot of non-RINOs are going to start dumping on him.

Watch.

I don't like ripping Trump for too many things over COVID, but the CARES Act started the inflationary fire.

Brother you forgetting about the CARES act the second round of stimulus checks with Trump's signature on it? You could argue that Biden continued to make it worse but to pretend it all happened from the Biden administration is just pure fiction.

About what I expected. Made promises that he would not deliver on in four years.

R party, F

They control the house and senate and still can't send anything to his desk to sign.

The turd continues to circle the toilet bowl in this country with no end in sight.

Here is an evaluation of the grade level, grammar, and structure of the sentence provided. Grade Level Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level: 0.0 to 1.5 (Kindergarten to 1st Grade) Lexile Measure: Approximately 400L–500L Contextual Reading Level: While the individual words and sentence structure are highly simplistic (ranking at a primary school reading level), the use of conversational idiom, sarcasm, and ellipsis implies an adult or adolescent conversational tone. Grammar & Structural Evaluation While the sentence perfectly communicates a casual, defensive thought in everyday slang, it contains several technical grammatical errors: Sentence Fragment (Dropped Subject): The sentence begins with the verb "Guess," omitting the subject pronoun "I." Informal: "Guess that makes you..." Formal: "I guess that makes you..." Subject-Verb Agreement / Diction Error (There is vs. There are): The phrase "there is way worse" uses a singular verb (is) to refer to an implied plural noun or collective group of "things" or "examples." Furthermore, "worse" is an adjective being functioning colloquially as a noun. Correction: "...because there are way worse things on here." Colloquial Diction (Way worse / On here): Using "way" as an adverb meaning "significantly" or "much" is informal. Additionally, "on here" is redundant in formal writing; "here" or "on this platform" is preferred. Correction: "...because there are much worse examples here."

Bad. Probably a C-. Could move to a D or worse by the fall.

The Iran war is just idiotic. It is going to hurt the economy badly. There was just no need.
