Trump achieved only bluster, grift and decline
Hackensack, N.J.: I am tired of reading the whiny responses from the Donald Trump supporters in this section. What exactly did he do for you? You whine about inflation despite President Biden keeping ours at half (or less) than that of the rest of the world. And let’s not forget that Trump’s $8 trillion in record deficit spending (the overwhelming part of which went to the wealthy) was in part responsible for the inflationary surge, as were the tariffs he imposed on goods that we are all now still paying.
Jobs? Barack Obama created more jobs in the final three years of his administration than Trump created in the first three years of his (pre-pandemic). Economy? Trump ranks seventh in post-WWII economic growth. Simple, provable facts. And then toss in his theft of classified documents, his attempt to subvert the Constitution and his sowing of doubt and division around our elections.
And let’s not forget his lavish praise of tyrants such as Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un and Recep Tayyip Erdo an. And for all those Trump supporters who somehow delude themselves into thinking that weak, feckless snowflake is somehow “strong,” please think back to Helsinki in 2018, where we watched an American president bend the knee to a Russian tyrant. And let’s not forget the brazen corruption of the Trump crime family, starting with son-in-law Jared’s $2 billion “investment” in his hedge fund from the Saudi Royal prince. How much did greedy Donny get from that sweet deal? Biden corrupt? Spare us the feigned outrage. Hunter Biden couldn’t hold a candle to that crew. Ken Byrnes
