Trump's Cognitive Decline is Advanced. Time to be concerned.

[NewfieMom]

No he was objectively a terrible president

Quag is right.

 

[Grandpappy]

And there would be no maximum age reason for getting rid of some spectacularly horrible characters like:

Stupidity: Betsy DeVos
Evil: Stephen Miller
Corruption: Bill Barr and Mike Pompeo

Let's face it. The list of stupids; evils; and corrupts working in the Trump administration is endless.

Only if you're a commie. Otherwise, they were OK.

 

[Jay59]

No he wasn't.

Bring it. I can probably shoot them down like skeet.

He inherited an economy on the mend and rode it for all he could. That's it.

You say that like it's a bad thing. Biden inherited a better economy and look what happened.

However, it's not entirely true. Trump had to cope with an aging economic cycle and rising interest rates, neither of which applied to Obama.

He ****ed up international relations, his trade war cost America more than it gained,

He was very, very good at foreign policy. There was never a trade war--that was just political spin-- and we improved exports substantially during his term.

he divided the country,

He didn't. Trump haters divided the country.

he failed at addressing Covid,

The results say otherwise. That's a theme here. The results are at at odds with all of your points.

and when he lost he cried so much and spread to the point of inspiring the 1/6 sedition.

You continue the sedition lie.

There is no "objectively good" here. There's only objectively horrid.

You started with something objectively good and refused to give credit where it was due. You omitted the part about record unemployment, rising real earnings, control of the border, energy independence, the bumpstock ban, FIRST STEP, tax reform. They call what you did cherrypicking.

Omg This is so simplistic. A kind of "push, shove" view.

Trump was a good President. That much is simple.

In addition to what @Ik you must consider the long term damage Trump did. Pulling out of TPP for example was something China could never have hoped to happen. That can never be undone now.

Good. We are in a better place with China shown to be the bully of Asia.

His trade war with China cost us billions, BILLIONS of dollars with no return on investment.

It was not a trade war. It never got that nasty and we did get a much more enforceable trade agreement with China.

You don't understand how this contributed to the inflation we have now?

Because it's not.

How subsidizing farmers because of this debacle contributes to the increased prices you pay for everything today?

Not happening.

The only, and I mean only think he brought to fruition in the economic arena was the Mexico trade agreement.

Assuming you mean the US-Mexico-Canada agreements (USMCA). That's a good place to start. NAFTA was very dated.

Do you know that did effectively nothing? NOTHING. what it did was effectively put his name on the trade agreement and took off Clinton's. That was it.

USMCA has significant differences from NAFTA.

Clearly you understand none of this.

You just demonstrated that this applies to you. I don't know who you are parroting, but whoever it is has been lying to you.

Quag is right.

There is nothing right about quag. Left all the way.

It was not a trade war. It never got that nasty and we did get a much more enforceable trade agreement with China.

A September 2019 study by Moody’s Analytics found that the trade war had already cost the U.S. economy nearly 300,000 jobs and an estimated 0.3% of real GDP. Other studies put the cost to U.S. GDP at about 0.7%. A 2019 report from Bloomberg Economics estimated that the trade war would cost the U.S. economy $316 billion by the end of 2020, while more recent research from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and Columbia University found that U.S. companies lost at least $1.7 trillion in the price of their stocks as a result of U.S. tariffs imposed on imports from China.

 

[Old 'N Chill]

No, it doesn't.

You sure talk like one.
As for Trump, the amount of stupid shit he had to be talked out of is astounding. Anything that wasn't near as bad was achieved by his puppet masters. His own people called him an effing moron. Trump is incompetent, ignorant, corrupt, ridiculous and should be nowhere near the Presidency.
Time for you to defend him, Independent.

You're being too kind with traitor trump, the insurrection inciter and the scum who served his failed twice impeached one term at the pleasure of his master, Mr. Putin. He's still loyal to the murderous lover and keeps his knee pads handy in case his lover Vlad invites him over for more secret teabagging meetings, this time not in Helsinki, but in Russia.

 

[NewfieMom]

Only if you're a commie. Otherwise, they were OK.

They are not shapeshifters. They cannot be OK for some people and not for others. Either they are corrupt and evil (the truth) or not (the lie).

You right wingers have to learn what The Big Lie really is. The Big Lie is that Donald Trump was ever after anything more than money. He never cared about the United States. He used his office to funnel money into his private coffers. Why do you think he had a hotel across fro The White House where all the foreign dignitaries would come, stay, and pay him?

Why do you think he charged the American people to house his own Secret Service agents at his private hotels on every trip he too at home and abroad? He insisted at staying at Trump hotels so that he got the revenue for his rooms and those of his Secret Service agents. He was only out for money.

As uneducated/unaware a post as I have ever read here. Far to busy and ridiculous to respond to in particulars.

In summation, a cult is a cult. Fact and reason holds no value.

The dumbing down of Americans by Fox and the cult leaders will likely end democracy in 2024.

How sad.

Trump Can't Recall Name Of That Ohio Guy He Endorsed For Senate

“We’ve endorsed ... J.P.? Right?” the former president asked at a Nebraska political rally.

news.yahoo.com

Front runner to lead the 2024 Presidential candidacy embarrassed himself once again by failing to remember one of the candidates he supposedly endorsed. Anyone know who JD Mandel is?

Of course, we have no idea if he truly knew who he was endorsing, since his mental state is degrading very rapidly.

Let me help you make the OP point.

Taking those numbers as proven, it was not a trade war. Barely a spat or border skirmish. Exposing China's aggression did have costs but nothing like a war.

You are a fine one to make such distinctions.

In summation, a cult is a cult. Fact and reason holds no value.

I have no issue with this. Trump haters will believe anything negative about Trump, no matter how absurd. They will not examine plain facts concerning his administration, preferring to assume the worst.

The dumbing down of Americans by Fox and the cult leaders will likely end democracy in 2024.

You were doing fine until you mentioned Fox. The cult leaders are at CNN, NBC and online subsidiaries, NYT, WaPo, etc.

References to the end of democracy are usually acknowledgment that the next election prospects are poor. Is that what you are doing, acknowledging coming defeat?

How sad.

I guess it would be in your position.

Up is down, fact is fiction, truth are lies.
The cult guidelines exhibited.

Does a merit badge come in the mail for such blind obedience to these principles?

 

[reflechissez]

We have no idea what history will say because we can't see the future. All that is is speculation.

History happened today. trump is still the worst president.

 

[reflechissez]

Let me help you make the OP point.

Thanks for the walk down memory lane. He has said/done so much awful stuff, that I didn't realize how much I'd forgotten.

 

[Jay59]

That's doublespeak, which you're really good at, but don't forget Trump is lying even when he tells the truth. It's a central doctrine.

Does a merit badge come in the mail for such blind obedience to these principles?

Do you really think you deserve one? You spout a lot of cult talking points, but do you really have true allegiance to the alt-fact echo chamber and High Priest Licht?

That reminds me. how has the sudden resignation of High Priest Zucker affected the loyal base?

 

[Integrityrespec]

You are worried about Trump and he's not President, but you are ok with Joe and he's is President and a complete mess.

 

[US&THEM]

You are worried about Trump and he's not President, but you are ok with Joe and he's is President and a complete mess.

Worried about Trump, more concerned about his cult and which way they will decide they were wronged and attack again. The weekly rallies make sure the cult is amped up for the next Trump lie.
