It’s not just that he’s better than that incompetent, it’s that he’s been doing many positive things, not least of which is exposing the sheer amount of waste and fraud in government, closing off the flood of illegal aliens, and showing up the Democrats for the pro-corruption, pro-crime and anti-human party that they are.

Do you think the Fed might have something to do with that? Trump has only been in office for 8 months. The democrats have gone bonkers and refuse to support anything he does. They lie about ICE, they accuse him of being a nazi, they’re despicable. Trump is a patriot. He loves America. He closed the border. Newsome. Crockett, and the rest of the democrats are responsible for the deaths in this country. I think he’s doing well in spite of the democrats lies.

things like dealing with Israel would have been left to the career bureaucrats of the State Department, not exactly known for being pro-Jewish. Or, more dead Jews (r”l), but at least no Orange Man Bad, huh?

(Psst… you might want to compare the death tolls of Israeli soldiers before and after Trump took office. That might give you some clue who was actually hurting Israel vs. who is helping it.)

May 1, 2025 2:02 am

Although I voted for him, so far I think he is doing a terrible job on the economy and doesn’t actually seem to know what he is doing regarding Russia and Ukraine. Also for all that he says, he is currently negotiating with Iran and probably will make a”deal”. He is full of bluster and usually (if last time is any indicator) ends up making lousy deals. That said, yes I voted for him, but only because the alternative as far as Israel was concerned was worse. But the everything else, he is turning out as I thought he would… Read more »

What he is doing with Iran is a matter of grave concern. If he ultimately strikes them, he will earn praise, and it will outweigh all the bad, but the current direction he is going in is worrisome. His Jewish negotiator, who knows nothing about anything, is an embarrassment to the Jewish people. His words on Gaza were great. Unfortunately it is not clear that they were anything but words. His economic policy is terrible. And almost all things he does are impacted by his unstable personality, which inflicts needless emotional turmoil on the nation and the world. Fundamentally, he… Read more »

If you put that $400 million in an ordinary bank account, you’d have more accumulated over the years since than what he has.
Anyway, his wealth doesn’t matter to me. His deficits of character don’t matter to me either, and neither does his deficit of intelligence, if he can do what is right and destroy the Iranian nuclear program. Then he will go down as one of the greatest men in history, and all of my assessments will be gratuitous insults without justification. I pray he may do this.

David claimed that Trump is “of low intelligence.” The proper response, as “Easy” did, is that people “of low intelligence” don’t become billionaires. Now, no one said the Soros is of low intelligence, so you’re simply attacking a straw man.

The liberals won in Canada because of their antipathy toward him. There’s still no peace in the Ukraine-Russia war, which he promised to resolve on his first day. And he’s sending random guys with soccer tattoos and no criminal record to what amounts to a gulag in El Salvador just to appear effective. What’s not to like?

Harris would have been a disaster and the world would have no respect and concern about her. Trump has been straightforward with his ideas in pre election campaigns. If Americans didn’t like him they shouldn’t have voted for him. E.g his tariffs on the world are good only it takes time for the world to deal with it and accept it.
