Draining the swamp
I know you may think this, but Trump is not a King. He can't remove elected officials at a whim.
quote:
Ending corruption
All of it? You are pretty naive if you think anyone can just "end corruption".
quote:
Exposing and arresting the Epstein class
I'm kind of tired of repeating this, but it takes time to build a case. I know you "demand answers now", but no one really cares what you want.
quote:
Going after the people who allowed him to be shot
Yeah, Trump is protecting the people that shot him. You are a psychopath
quote:
Arresting the heads of those who commit fraud
Trump is not a police officer. In order for arrests to happen, you have to build a case that doesn't get overturned or dismissed. Again, i'm sorry your impatience is causing you pain.

Building a wall
You do know this is happening, right?

Mass deportation
Is Trump the one preventing his administration from deporting illegals?
quote:
Stopping foreign workers, Indians, from taking IT jobs
I wasn't aware this was a campaign promise.
quote:
Holding the tech-bros in check
In check of what?
quote:
Exposing fake news
He's already done this multiple times.
quote:
Cut spending
This, he has not done, to my dismay. But, to be fair, he never campaigned on cutting spending. He has cut some spending to bullshite programs, but not enough for my liking.
quote:
Lower prices on the middle class
When energy prices go down, this will happen.
Hasn't even been a full 2 years yet and your flare ups are over exciting you. You need to calm down, ma'am.

No, they aren’t “voting on principles.” They’re being propagandized and they love it. All you “Ron DeSanctimonious wears lifts” jagoffs are now chasing another set of pied pipers.
You all wouldn’t know principles if they shite down your throat.

Trump's schtick of flamethrowing and making enemies when there was no need to, only to complain when those people he alienated didn't help dig him out of holes he created later, is still fascinating.
We're seeing the same shite with Europe and his war in Iran.
There is now a pretty easy blueprint on how to beat him
Either ignore him completely or call his bluff

Ron isn't good at communicating policy in a way that makes sense to people and is just an odd guy. I will tell you from firsthand experience he is great in a room with policymakers. He understands the processes and levers of power at a level few do.
Ron also has a pure red legislature which has helped him tremendously as governor. If only Trump had that kind of support he may show some principles but look at what he has to work with.

Was thinking so. In libtards braids they win in every argument. It’s comical. I can’t believe we live in a world of people with so much hate in their heart that they allow it to eat them up. They def keeping big pharm in business with anxiety prescriptions. 
I still love them !

He just endorsed Florida congresswoman Maria Salazar who is openly pushing mass amnesty.

People don’t remember what a normal President was before Trump.
That includes Trump 1. Despite all this revisionist history that Trump “betrayed us,” we shouldn’t forget that his first term was basically just a tax cut and a constant war against Russiagate.
Trump 2 has, by far, wielded the most executive power of any President since WW2. He’s basically doing everything within the confines of the law to push deportations and crush his political opponents. He’s fulfilled far more of his campaign promises than the average President too, contrary to this app’s claims.
It’s not his fault that our system is a corrupt leviathan that is difficult to change. You should’ve known that going in. If you’re just now learning about woke judges, terrorist Democrats, or corrupt Republicans, you haven’t been around enough to comment on anything.
I remember during Trump 1, we viewed him as our crusader who was fighting that system — even though he did very little in reality. Being the symbol of resistance was enough for us. Being hated by the Deep State was enough.
Now that he’s genuinely pushing hard against the institutions — and even dismantling some of them — these same people mock him if he loses. It’s ridiculous.
You can fantasize about Trump suspending the Republic and becoming Caesar, but that was never a realistic outcome.
Fixing the country is not accomplished in one election. It takes years, generations to keep marching, stacking wins, and making progress — which Trump has done an absurd amount of in a short time.
For me, Trump is a hero. He is the trailblazer who paved the way and showed patriots that it’s possible. But he was never a messiah. I’ve always understood that there would be more work to do, long after he was gone.
We should ride the momentum and opportunity we’ve been given. Lead by Trump and Charlie’s example. But sadly, we won’t. Because social media has fried our brains and attention span too much to actually do the hard work of sustaining a political movement.

Because people saw him as a war mongering RINO that would spend us into oblivion like George W Bush and didn’t want that
And yet, we got that anyway? You are proving my point

Glad you brought to my attention wrong poster. Getting old big fingered it.

Ron D doesn't appeal to middle class and working class voters as much because he isn't a populist.
Hes the best actual conservative governor the nation has produced in my lifetime, but we wouldn't be seeing tariffs, etc had he been elected although we would probably see other things domestically that arent happening because Trump has been so distracted by foreign issues.
What hes done from a wealth and financial standpoint in the state of Florida is incomprehensible and needs to be studied, I think $1T in wealth moved to the state in just the last few months (Mark Z, Google, etc)
The perfect ticket would've been Trump/DeSantis because Trump could've handled tariffs, etc and could've delegated domestic execution of cleaning up DEI, the federal agencies and the judicial to Ron, but ultimately I don't know if Trump can handle having anyone around him who doesn't tell him what he wants to hear at this point so I'm not sure it would've worked for four years.
And to be clear its absolutely Ron's fault that didnt happen because the RNC was in he and his wifes ear about taking down Trump in the primary.

Trump thinks his supporters are these people. People who voted for HIM because he’s TRUMP.
He did not expect that people voted for him because of actual ideals and promises like:
Draining the swamp
Ending corruption
Exposing and arresting the Epstein class
Going after the people who allowed him to be shot
Stopping the endless wars of the Industrial Military Complex
Exposing and stopping fraud with DOGE
Arresting the heads of those who commit fraud
Building a wall
Mass deportation
Stopping foreign workers, Indians, from taking IT jobs
Holding the tech-bros in check
Exposing fake news
Cut spending
Lower prices on the middle class
Very little of this has he accomplished, and in fact, many would argue he’s reversed course on a lot of these so they are upset
And now Trump is getting pissy thinking the world has somehow turned on him because he’s realizing he isn’t loved because he’s Trump, alone, he’s loved because he stood up against the machine with THESE PROMISES.
This hurts his ego

For those who say Trump screwed up by launching Operation Epic Fury I think many would agree the timing was very suspect but the eventual confrontation between the Islamic Regime and the West/US is likely inevitable.
I think if Trump 2.0 should have retained laser focus on domestic policies leading up to the midterms and a lot of items you listed could have been addressed, if the Iran situation needed to be dealt with before Trump left office then take the last two years of Trump 2.0 and let'er rip.

I like Ron, but he was just super awkward during the campaign.
Also, on a certain issue that a lot of people aren't fans of Trump for, Ron is even worse. And, you're right, he may have been a neocon on foreign policy.

Didn’t we run a deficit for the first time in like 30 something years during trumps first year when including the tariff revenue?
Pretty sure we did but could be wrong
