the Trump folk are continually referring the the good things he has done for them. I can't think of any. Does anybody have a list of all the good things Trump has done? If so, I would be interested.

Wait, what...?

There is a perception that some of Trump's policies were successful. Most of his tariffs remained in place last I heard. The stock market performed well, everybody had jobs and money to spend.

He always told them everything was great and if they heard otherwise it was a lie.

They believed that he singlehandedly reduced the price of insulin in America!

Because he told them he did. Then everybody started getting sick and dying from the Chinese virus and democrats blamed him!

That's it in a nutshell I think.

Trump signed a 2017 tax bill whereby the wealthy one-percent received 87% of a tax break, while 331 million Americans has to split the other 13%.

I'm also aware the Trump pettiness caused over 200,000 Americans to die and prolonged the C19 pandemic in America by discounting the seriousness of the virus.

I also know that Trump met with Russian diplomats a few times in secret - away from US medias prying eyes and microphones.
i also know that Trump lied literally tens of thousands of times to the American public.
I also know that Trump ran a shadow government while conducting official US business.
I also know that Trump took classified documents and national security secrets with him on the way out of the door.

So, basically, he didn't do a damned thing if you weren't already rich. Thought so, just making sure. Its just hard to believe that the true believers are TRUE BELIEVERS! The Republican Party is actually a cult!

We live, I think, in very strange times.

Here's an article from Politico about what the Trump Administration accomplished.

30 things...

The Atlantic also weighed in near the end of his term...
13 things...

Even a blind hog finds an acorn now and then...

Seriously?!? NOT repealing ACA was one of the things that Trump DID?!?

NOT providing workplace guidance for C19 was something Trump DID?!?

Trump found ways to expand federal support for religious schools? No the SCOTUS did that.

I'm done...this Politico opinion piece is nauseating. crazy I only got to 5. I thoroughly didn't understand #2...the military thing.

  • Safeguarding 5G networks from Chinese control <------ Meh
  • Appointment of Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve chair <----Isnt' the guy choking right now?
  • Destruction of the ISIS caliphate in eastern Syria and northern Iraq <---- Pretty sure Russia did that

Man! People are desperate to show that Trump did any good. It's completely laughable.

Those weren't lists of "good" things. Just things in general.

And replacing it with our very own homegrown version of it.
Thanks Trump.
