Such a dead horse topic.

We know he's like a classic 90s democrat.

We have FAR greater issues than pretending the letter next to their name or a few policies we disagree with will matter at all.

We have already seen his product in office and I will take him over unknown values. Please give me 6+ years ago everything.

D.C. culture must change. Our societal culture must change. I can't wait to watch that dude go scorched earth on these MANY enemies of America in control.

How was the economy under Trump?


Good for 3 years, and then he signed the CARES act among other things and spent more money than any President in history, and ruined it.

The people on here trying to pass him off as some kind of bastion of conservatism are probably the biggest retards on this board.


There's a video clip posted in another thread that shows him talking to Barron as a kid going to start school, and can't say he doesn't have typical old school conservative family values. Tells him...

He wants A's in reading, writing and arithmetic.

You can project your inferiority complex all you want, but that aligns with what my own father told me at that age. I'll take that mindset at the core and can overlook "mean tweets" all day long.

Name these scorched earth things he can do. I’m interested in what he can do with executive power with no help from Congress while facing another massive resistance from the left and Lawfare left and right.

They are going to stonewall him and just wait the four years out in the unlikely event he wins.

“In many cases, I probably identify more as Democrat,” Trump told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer in a 2004 interview. “It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans. Now, it shouldn’t be that way. But if you go back, I mean it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats. …But certainly we had some very good economies under Democrats, as well as Republicans. But we’ve had some pretty bad disaster under the Republicans.”

Covid was unprecedented and there were a lot of fails to pass around. Nothing wrong with pointing to when times were normal and how it was.

Yes or no. Did that tank the frick out of the economy? Do you think the fallout of the two is comparable?

Did he tank it or did how leftie states handle it long term hurt the economy, even after he left?

Also, there's a major difference between one state and being the leader of the free world. If Desantis would shut down his border, then can't say he would have done anything differently than Trump. He was very Fauci and Birx positive too.

Monday morning QBing can be done, but no proof Desantis would do any different

Did he not have border check points? Purpose of doing that...and how American is doing it?

Not being a liar if it was the national perception at the time and not cleared up...on "purpose or not"

Then stop whining about it, and clear up what actually happened at the check points?
