What would you consider Trump’s 3 biggest accomplishments in his 2nd term?

And how would you score their importance and impact?
Bonus question: One unmet expectation.
I’ll hang up and listen.

He's slowed down the southern border influx. That's important.
Cutting USAID was a big one, but I'm not sure how much of that has or will stick.
I don't really have a third.

Banned DEI at the federal level.
No tax on overtime.
Captured Maduro.
Unmet expectation.

I'll give him that one.

This has never been an actual problem. The U.S. actually reaped some benefit, and it accomplished some actual worthy humanitarian goals. It was an easy target fabricated by a few goons at the Heritage Foundation and Cato Institute
The cited examples of abuse were mostly false or completely out of context.
It's impact on the budget hasn't been as substantial as fraud and waste at the DoD...

I think corruption lives in things like USAID and the glut of "non-profits" throughout the country. It was a tack in the right direction, but again, I'm not sure if was anything more than cosmetic in reality. These outfits have lobbies of their own and they're hard to touch. And I don't think Trump has the will to truly fight them.

1) Border security
2) Reduction in bureaucracy
3) Decreased taxes
Not that you asked, but on the surface I’m not happy with his rollback on the protections of public lands. But I am admittedly no expert on the topic. There are a few others, but I don’t feel the want or the need to list them.
Rule of thumb for me: if I find myself agreeing 100% with any politician, I probably need to take a look in the mirror.

They just started rolling this out.
It's only no tax on the extra pay that you get from the over time hours.
So if you get 1.5x, the tax break is only for the .5 earned.

Even if you agree with USAID’s stated goal of using “soft power” to increase US influence overseas there is zero reason it should ever existed as an independent agency. We have a State Department for that.

(1) Securing the border; (2) deporting millions of illegals; (3) the tax cuts in the Big Beautiful Law; (4) lowering inflation; (5) increasing and re-shoring American manufacturing; (6) incapacitating the Iranian regime; (7) toppling Maduro; and (8) pushing the Chinese out of the Western Hemisphere.

The SAVE Act. But that’s on the Senate, not President Trump.

Great point. This would be number 9 for me. Trump has shrunk the size of the federal government to pre-Great Society Levels. This is a monumental achievement.

1) He ended the surge of unvetted illegal aliens across our southern border. Tom Homan and our ICE Agents are now focused on apprehending illegal aliens and deporting them.
2) He eliminated Joe Biden's sufficating business regulations issued through Executive Order (EO) effectively bypassing the legislative process.
3) Drill baby drill. He brought our Oil & Gas fossil fuel industry back. A critical industry Joe Biden and his Global Warming lunatic pals had sworn to destroy.
He's done so much more, far to many to list here.
President Donald J. Trump - He leads.

So If someone works 60 hours in a week and 20 was overtime, they only get relief on .5 pay for 20 hours? How does that make sense?

So much- fixed the financial system with tariffs - fixed the Americas so we control this hemisphere - closed the border - stopped the democrats major funding arm with USAID - DEI - fixed the woke bs in the military - deportations - releasing the Epstien files - ufo and jfk files making his administration the most transparent in history. And we aren’t even half way. He will go down as the goat president with no clear second that’s even close. He will be sorely missed and. In 20 years people will long for the Trump years.

He pisses off the MSM several times a day. I enjoy seeing their pain.

great list. there have been secondary items as well (reduction in govt workforce) stated here also.
I would simply add to your #1) "and doing so in a manner so quick and efficient that it should expose the lie we were told by the previous admin to an extent that party shouldn't be taken seriously for at least a decade or two
