To grade the progress he’s made on one thing you find negative is fair? Your opinion for sure, but it sounds as if you’re giving him the grade based on the entirety of our government, instead of his record alone. A government that was here long before he was elected. If you need help deciding what big positive things he’s done for our country I could make a list, but you really have to be turning a blind eye to say he’s not done well for the country. I realize with nearly every media outlet spewing anti Trump BS and a near blackout when it comes to his accomplishments a lot of people will live ignorant or in denial about it. Just look at the constant unprecedented attacks from the left and ask yourself why they’re willing to show their true nature and lose so much ground now.I can’t completely put my political biases aside, but last night and today I can’t help but wonder how are we perceived as Americans by those who are void of political ideology.
I have no problem admitting Trump has been good for our countries people from the perspective of improved quality of life. I don’t think it’s as much as he believes, but it is massively greater than the left wing ideologues would have you believe.
I have mixed reviews on our republic as a structure of governance. Of course he would grade himself with an A+ and the leftist would give him an F. I have to give him a D. Honestly if he wouldn’t have screwed us with the bump-stock EO he would have scored much higher. Still likely not the A+ he would claim but better than most presidents in my lifetime.
I guess my point in all my rambling is on the world stage we are so polarized, that if you are to believe one side over the other you would have to recognize one side is delusional. I’m not so foolish to believe that this is *the worst it’s ever been* but I have to wonder what someone from another country with no real political ideology thinks when they see us behave in this manner.
I also realize many folks will never be happy with any POTUS, but I don’t understand why they can’t be honest with themselves. I’d like to pose a serious question to everyone here: has there been a president in your lifetime that you feel has done more good for this country, more positive changes to affect our economy, our security, our status on the world stage? I’ve seen 10 US presidents in my days. Born right after JFK was assassinated so I don’t count him. I think I’ve seen one better than Trump. I’d say Reagan was a better POTUS than Trump if there was one in my lifetime. I was an adult and I saw the difference his 2 terms made at a time when we had taken some really bad turns. His second term was a shoe in because nobody could deny that the country was in the best shape it had been in decades. I’ve not seen a better POTUS since Reagan. Trump will have another term and may even outdo Reagan, who knows. Even with the left fighting him tooth and nail at every turn, he’s managed to turn many things around. To deny that is unrealistic to say the least. I imagine I could find a few reasons to hate him, but I’d rather open my eyes and appreciate the positive and feel content that we have a leader that’s trying to work for us for a change.
Yes sir, I’ll appreciate another 4 years of Trump.
