I guess that shows what an impotent pussy Trump is that he, as POTUS, couldn't stop voter fraud.

That's it.
He's a narcissistic, shite talking, used car salesman bullshitter, but he's amazing at negotiating from a frick you position.
Moreover, he doesn't like losing, and the USA benefited from his wins.

His 3rd cousin will be AG.

Literally came on this board and defended China and bashed Trump on trade.
Later admitted to his own trades... and thus IbChinaman was born.

The one above is a very partial list. In fact, that's less than 20% of what he did while in office that was straight up America First.
I get that IBCHINAMAN prefers China and the way things were with China based on your work( your words), but we are done with that.
Just a few more on that LONG arse LIST:

Directed an all-of-government effort to halt and punish efforts by the Communist Party of China to steal and profit from American innovations and intellectual property.

Dude, Trump doesn’t need a wall of text to make his first 3 years appear successful. They were, everybody with a brain knows it - outside of extending Fisa and creating CISA, he did the country well.
It’s the last year of his term that’s the problem - wasting trillions of dollars, letting his CDC wage war on the country, and doing nothing about the summer of love.

Nah, your problem is with the constitution and laws.
Here is some more for you.
Schedule F. I know you hate it. I do too. But to avoid it as if it's nothing is more than dishonest.
China released the virus. Yep there is such a virus called Covid-19. And it killed people. When was the last pandemic you lived through? That's right David... none. This one is it. So almost all states decided a path of lock downs and slowly reopening.
I hate that. You hate that!
You want to talk about wasting trillions. I am going to talk about the taxes raised by the gov, both federal and state. Money taken from me and every tax paying citizen. The Governors shut our businesses down. You want to shut me down, give me my money back! Give my employees their money back. IT'S NOT THEIRS and it DAMN SURE is not yours.
You want to get pissed about that. Go ahead. Get pissed at the Governors for closing businesses and costing jobs. NOT the fact that the federal and states gave TAX MONEY BACK to those people who paid it in.
We send billions every where and your cranky arse is going to PREACH to people who were FORCED by governors to shut down and not work for getting their tax money back!
What a damn JOKE!

Perhaps Trump knows something about Desantis the rest of you don't. Not to mention Desantis didn't refuse his deep state endorsements.
Posted on 2/9/23 at 6:31 am to Eli Goldfinger
I BELIEVE DeSantis would be a great president.
I KNOW Trump is the greatest president we've ever had.
