Even if your false implication were true, Trump would still be the most successful pro-America president of most of our lives. That's what bothers you. You hate Trump, but you hate that he has improved the country for average people even more. So much so that you have to ignore his wins and focus on the trivial.

Trump fan here but him calling anyone a ‘sleaze bag’ is rich.

Not in practice. He's just another progressive

Trump, despite his branding as a conservative, has embraced several economic positions that align—at least superficially or tactically—with far-left or populist-left economic ideas. Here are some notable areas of overlap:
1. Trade Protectionism
- Trump: Imposed tariffs on China, steel, aluminum, and other goods; withdrew from the TPP; renegotiated NAFTA as USMCA.
- Far-Left Parallel: Many on the progressive left have long criticized free trade agreements for harming American workers and offshoring jobs (e.g., Bernie Sanders’ opposition to NAFTA and TPP).
2. Industrial Policy / Economic Nationalism
- Trump: Advocated for bringing manufacturing back to the U.S. through subsidies, tax breaks, and “Buy American” policies.
- Far-Left Parallel: Progressives often call for industrial policy to rebuild domestic manufacturing and support green jobs and union labor (e.g., Green New Deal).
3. Opposition to Globalism
- Trump: Criticized multinational institutions (e.g., WTO, WHO), global corporations, and foreign entanglements.
- Far-Left Parallel: Leftist movements often critique globalization for weakening labor protections, increasing inequality, and enabling corporate exploitation.
4. Criticism of Wall Street and the Fed
- Trump: Publicly attacked the Federal Reserve and criticized Wall Street influence, especially when it conflicted with his agenda.
- Far-Left Parallel: The left frequently calls out Wall Street’s power and demands tighter regulation of the financial sector.
5. Massive Deficit Spending
- Trump: Oversaw significant increases in the federal deficit, including tax cuts without offsetting cuts and large COVID relief spending.
- Far-Left Parallel: Progressives advocate for large-scale deficit spending to fund social programs and economic relief, particularly in times of crisis.

Give me a list of all the world's leaders who exhibit decorum and don't tweet out inflammatory messages and I will in return show you a list of world leaders that I would STILL choose Trump over every day of the week.

MAGA stated when he got to DC he didn't know anybody or anything. He got advice from this group on who to appoint to the judiciary. It turned out they were Swamp fuks who screwed him. He has learned a lot grasshopper.

Trump didn't write that. That's not how he posts.
Posted on 5/30/25 at 7:41 am to lsufan1971
Ever notice it’s never his fault when he makes decisions that he later regrets?
Posted on 5/30/25 at 7:44 am to lsufan1971
Trump’s victim mentality is the strongest I’ve every seen.

Trump's one of the most transparent political figures in ages. You can add this to an already yuge pile of looks into his psyche going back to the 80s.
What was your point exactly??

A list of terrible candidates have been pushed by the federalist society, including Kavanaugh and Barrett. Trump isn’t wrong.

Trump is a peronist.
