Historic support for American farmers.

Successfully negotiated more than 50 agreements with countries around the world to increase foreign market access and boost exports of American agriculture products, supporting more than 1 million American jobs.
Authorized $28 billion in aid for farmers who have been subjected to unfair trade practices – fully funded by the tariffs paid by China.
China lifted its ban on poultry, opened its market to beef, and agreed to purchase at least $80 billion of American agricultural products in the next two years.
The European Union agreed to increase beef imports by 180 percent and opened up its market to more imports of soybeans.
South Korea lifted its ban on American poultry and eggs, and agreed to provide market access for record exports of American rice.
Argentina lifted its ban on American pork.
Brazil agreed to increase wheat imports by $180 million a year and raised its quotas for purchases of United States ethanol.
Guatemala and Tunisia opened up their markets to American eggs.
Won tariff exemptions in Ecuador for wheat and soybeans.
Suspended $817 million in trade preferences for Thailand under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) program due to its failure to adequately provide reasonable market access for American pork products.
The amount of food stamps redeemed at farmers markets increased from $1.4 million in May 2020 to $1.75 million in September 2020 – a 50 percent increase over last year.
Rapidly deployed the Coronavirus Food Assistance Program, which provided $30 billion in support to farmers and ranchers facing decreased prices and market disruption when COVID-19 impacted the food supply chain.
Authorized more than $6 billion for the Farmers to Families Food Box program, which delivered over 128 million boxes of locally sourced, produce, meat, and dairy products to charity and faith-based organizations nationwide.

American Energy Independence

Unleashed America’s oil and natural gas potential.

For the first time in nearly 70 years, the United States has become a net energy exporter.
The United States is now the number one producer of oil and natural gas in the world.
Natural gas production reached a record-high of 34.9 quads in 2019, following record high production in 2018 and in 2017.
The United States has been a net natural gas exporter for three consecutive years and has an export capacity of nearly 10 billion cubic feet per day.
Withdrew from the unfair, one-sided Paris Climate Agreement.
Canceled the previous administration’s Clean Power Plan, and replaced it with the new Affordable Clean Energy rule.
Approved the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines.
Opened up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) in Alaska to oil and gas leasing.
Repealed the last administration’s Federal Coal Leasing Moratorium, which prohibited coal leasing on Federal lands.
Reformed permitting rules to eliminate unnecessary bureaucracy and speed approval for mines.
Fixed the New Source Review permitting program, which punished companies for upgrading or repairing coal power plants.
Fixed the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) steam electric and coal ash rules.
The average American family saved $2,500 a year in lower electric bills and lower prices at the gas pump.
Signed legislation repealing the harmful Stream Protection Rule.
Reduced the time to approve drilling permits on public lands by half, increasing permit applications to drill on public lands by 300 percent.
Expedited approval of the NuStar’s New Burgos pipeline to export American gasoline to Mexico.
Streamlined Liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal permitting and allowed long-term LNG export authorizations to be extended through 2050.
The United States is now among the top three LNG exporters in the world.
Increased LNG exports five-fold since January 2017, reaching an all-time high in January 2020.
LNG exports are expected to reduce the American trade deficit by over $10 billion.
Granted more than 20 new long-term approvals for LNG exports to non-free trade agreement countries.
The development of natural gas and LNG infrastructure in the United States is providing tens of thousands of jobs, and has led to the investment of tens of billions of dollars in infrastructure.
There are now 6 LNG export facilities operating in the United States, with 2 additional export projects under construction.
The amount of nuclear energy production in 2019 was the highest on record, through a combination of increased capacity from power plant upgrades and shorter refueling and maintenance cycles.
Prevented Russian energy coercion across Europe through various lines of effort, including the Partnership for Transatlantic Energy Cooperation, civil nuclear deals with Romania and Poland, and opposition to Nord Stream 2 pipeline.
Issued the Presidential Permit for the A2A railroad between Canada and Alaska, providing energy resources to emerging markets.

I do as well. If Trump can navigate the nomination, I'll be all in. If DeSantis unseats him, I'd not have any problem supporting RDD. Anyone who takes out the OMB is going to be a major power player.

It seems like there is a group of you that decide on a particular day to come and gaslight the "I liked trump before, but it's time to move on" mantra.

Getting no real lasting significant legislation pushed through and signed into law

Not getting his border wall complete


the way djt stood by when senate gop refused to even vote on the Ryan repeal replace was special.

no white house weekend to hammer out a deal senators could live with.

the best trump was north korea. impressive.
if i were president for 24 i would appoint djt ambassador to north korea.

All within a few days!


And what's really easy to see is who they were prior to Trump. Most (not all) hated Trump from day 1.

That’s like, your opinion man. I hope he does though

I also hope he and Trump can debate on the issues because overall that’s good for our side

Because I've seen his product while in office, and when both sides of the aisle have worked FEVERISHLY to ruin him and his influence, it makes me want him in there worse and worse by the day. I don't even "like" Trump as a guy. I think a lot of the things that are obvious about his personality. But it's clear he loves the fk out of America and hates the influences that have absolutely ruined our country.

My memory isn't as short as yours, apparently. And I'm just not as easily influenced by MSM who want to demonize him at every turn. You (as in, the editorial man) probably hate him worse than you do Biden, if you're an average person with a pea-brain.

What America needs right now is a guy who can go toe-to-toe with these crooks in Washington. Beat'um at their own game. They play dirty; you match'um and raise them a notch.


Trump had four years to "beat 'um at their own game."

He is now sitting in FL posting away on his second rate personal social media site because he didn't "beat 'um at their own game."

I'm amazed at the thought processes of those that hold Trump up as some ultimate fighter for the people. He didn't get shite done and got pushed out of the WH by a dementia patient.

Doesn't sound like a winner to me.

By the way, the establishment sucks.

Trump is living in the past, he's approaching 80 years

So now this is an issue?
Age of POTUS, that is?
You realize Biden is 80, right?
I’m assuming that means you won’t be voting for Joe in 2024 ….

Do you realize how much shite DT was put through when in office. Also continue to attack him as a private citizen. It’s him against the establishment. If you are Mega which you apparently are not you would understand that.

Desantis is backed and funded by the establishment.

The establishment that is complicit in the election fraud of 2020 and the fraud we just saw in Arizona.

Desantis is an edgy Jeb Bush and will be controlled.
