‘How about we have someone with no accusations and plenty of acts supporting minorities.’

Sure that’s likely when the press is hounding you,. As for acts supporting minorities I just gave you one, which you conveniently ignored. I guarantee you just that one gesture cost more than the sum total of what Biden and Harris have donated to minorities their whole careers.

And how about we have somebody competent. It is the most consequential job in the whole world after all, not a Woke contest,

"Trumps fine people on both sides statement. We are arguing that it was utterly disgraceful that Trump would even consider anyone that anyone who attended the the unite the right protest as being fine people and that his statement implied equiveillance between the two sides, when one side where Nazi's and the other side where anti Nazi's!" Because you're too woke to accept that people should be allowed to protest the destruction of their heritage. ...and suffer from too much TDS to realise that a Trump is 100% correct when he says there were good people on both sides. ...and way too woke to take the man at his word when he outright condemns white nationalism and violence. Like I said, it's really that simple.

Ah yes its the press hounding Trump. 

As for ignoring your point. I'm sorry if Biden and Harris couldn't lend a 747 to fly down aid to Puerto Rico, they might have had they been so rich in the first place to you know actually own a 747.

Trump's record on makings donations to charity are again a little bit dubious. I'm sure he has made some genuine contributions but like everything in life you have to look at the whole picture and does that balance out a very long track record of either saying things that are racists or being associated with people and policies that are racist.

And how about we have somebody competent. It is the most consequential job in the whole world after all, not a Woke contest,

Yes it is indeed the most consequential job in the world that should have someone competent and Trump is the least competent person who was every considered for the job. 

Because you're too woke to accept that people should be allowed to protest the destruction of their heritage.

Not at all. Lets give a potential protester the benefit of the doubt and they where there protesting against what the protesters sees as the destruction of their heritage. Lets say this protesters really genuinely admires Robert E. Lee solely on the grounds that Robert E.Lee was a great general (which in itself is debateable) and that the south fought purely to uphold states rights and that's what Robert E.Lee fought for and it really had very little to with slavery.

You could potentially protest on these grounds and not be a racist, you could even be a fine person. (And I'm being super super generous to this potential protester, because the Confederacy's raison d'etre was to preserve the institution of slavery) 

But I don't care if that's a person's proclaimed reason to protest is, if that protester goes to a protest organised by neo-Nazi's, white supremacists and the KKK sees a large number of neo-Nazi flags in among the protesters and then joins that protest then I've sorry that person is a neo-Nazi supporter and a racist and not a fine person.

If you want to protest against the removal of that statue fine, organise or attend a protest that doesn't contain or was organised by neo-Nazi's and KKK members. 

...and suffer from too much TDS to realise that a Trump is 100% correct when he says there were good people on both sides.

LOL can you point those fine people on the unite the right side out please? 

...and way too woke to take the man at his word when he outright condemns white nationalism and violence.

Nothing to do with wokeness, everything to do with him effectively excusing some neo-Nazi's and white supremacists as fine people and by doing so he effectively undermined his own condemnation and also implying false equiveillance between the two sides. And we will know why he did it, to keep these types of people and groups voting for him.

Like I said, it's really that simple.

It is very simply, just in the opposite explanation. But at least you have now moved on to try and debate the actual point people are making when they bring up his fine people comments and not the strawman position that they ignored his condemnation.

‘Trump is the least competent person to ever run for the job’….less competent than Carter, Bush junior, Clinton, Gore and Harris. Give me a break. He may be the least likeable, depending on your views….but he had a successful presidency despite unprecedented resistance from the left. Nothing was in worse shape after his presidency except perhaps the egos of the wokes in the press.

This is Chat’s response…educate yourself (sic):

Donald Trump’s presidency (2017-2021) saw numerous actions and policies that had significant impacts on the U.S. domestically and internationally. Here are some of the key accomplishments his supporters often highlight:

1. Economic Growth & Tax Cuts

  • Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017): Trump signed into law a major tax reform, which cut the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% and provided temporary tax relief for individuals. This was one of the most significant overhauls of the tax code in decades.
  • Economic Growth (pre-COVID): Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. experienced sustained economic growth with low unemployment rates (reaching a 50-year low of 3.5%) and record stock market highs. Wages grew, particularly for low-income workers.

2. Deregulation

  • Trump's administration rolled back numerous regulations, particularly in energy, environment, and labor sectors. He aimed to boost business and job growth by reducing the burden of federal regulations.
  • Energy Independence: Trump emphasized policies that promoted energy independence, including expanding oil and gas drilling and rolling back restrictions on coal.

3. Judicial Appointments

  • Supreme Court Justices: Trump appointed three Supreme Court Justices—Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett—shifting the Court to a conservative majority.
  • Federal Judges: He appointed over 200 federal judges to lifetime positions, reshaping the federal judiciary for decades.

4. Foreign Policy

  • Middle East Peace Deals (Abraham Accords): Trump facilitated normalization agreements between Israel and several Arab nations (UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco), a significant achievement in Middle East diplomacy.
  • ISIS Defeat: The Trump administration declared the defeat of the territorial ISIS caliphate in Syria and Iraq.
  • Withdrawal from Global Agreements: Trump withdrew the U.S. from several international agreements, including the Paris Climate Accord and the Iran Nuclear Deal, emphasizing America First policies.
  • China Trade Policy: Trump implemented tariffs and pursued a trade war with China, aiming to reduce the U.S. trade deficit and address issues of intellectual property theft and unfair trade practices.

5. Criminal Justice Reform

  • First Step Act (2018): This bipartisan criminal justice reform bill aimed to reduce recidivism, shorten mandatory minimum sentences for non-violent offenses, and improve prison conditions. It was hailed as one of the most significant criminal justice reforms in years.

6. Immigration Policy

  • Border Security: Trump focused heavily on immigration enforcement, notably constructing portions of the U.S.-Mexico border wall and instituting strict asylum and immigration policies.
  • Travel Ban: Early in his presidency, Trump issued a travel ban on several predominantly Muslim countries, which was upheld by the Supreme Court after legal challenges.
  • End of DACA Attempts: The Trump administration attempted to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, though it was ultimately blocked by the courts.

7. COVID-19 Response

  • Operation Warp Speed: Trump's administration worked with pharmaceutical companies to accelerate the development of COVID-19 vaccines. The first vaccines were approved for emergency use in December 2020, a record speed for vaccine development.

8. Military & Veterans

  • Increased Defense Spending: Trump increased military spending significantly during his presidency, citing the need to rebuild the military.
  • Veterans Affairs Reforms: Trump's administration focused on reforming the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), including expanding access to private healthcare for veterans through the VA MISSION Act.

9. Trade Deals

  • USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement): Replacing NAFTA, the USMCA was negotiated to modernize and improve trade relations with Canada and Mexico. It included provisions on labor rights, environmental standards, and intellectual property protections.

10. Pro-Life Policies

  • Trump was a strong advocate for pro-life policies, reinstating the Mexico City Policy (blocking federal funds to international organizations that provide or promote abortions) and appointing pro-life judges.

These accomplishments are viewed differently depending on political perspectives, but they represent the key milestones of Trump’s presidency. His legacy remains a subject of debate, especially regarding the impacts of his policies and the divisiveness surrounding his presidency.

What Chat misses is that the US economy came out of Covid in far better shape than Europe and China and helped to power the world economy at a time China was in perpetual quarantine and Europe was dithering. Other things he did include raising wages and employment for minorities……and pushing back and delaying unnecessary Fed tightening plans.

What Chat GPT says depends on the question. I can also quote Chat GPT:

"In recent historical rankings, Donald Trump has generally been placed near the bottom. For instance, in the 2021 C-SPAN survey, Trump ranked 41st out of 44 presidents, ahead of only Franklin Pierce, Andrew Johnson, and James Buchanan. This survey involved historians and political scientists evaluating various aspects of presidential leadership?(

Siena College Research Institute)?(C-SPAN).

In the 2022 Siena College survey, Trump was again ranked among the worst, placing last alongside Buchanan and Johnson?(

Wikipedia). These low rankings reflect criticism of his handling of the office, including concerns over his approach to governance, political norms, and divisive leadership?(Siena College Research Institute)?(C-SPAN).

"

Just by the way, those are institutions that were created for the sole purpose of ranking the US presidents historically. They're not just based on biased opinions by a self-important old attention-seeker.
I doubt history will be kind to Bozo. If anything he'll probably sink even lower over time.

Those are just people who despise Trump acting on those impulses with a thin veneer of academic respectability. The measurable data in terms of the economy, consumer sentiment, employment and a number of other foreign policy variables are all positive. If they weren’t it would be all over the press.
He is an arrogant man and sometimes nasty. His performance in the debate was embarrassing. January the 6th should have disqualified him. But….no President has had to function under such adverse and false circumstances.
Now we have to choose between him flawed as he is and a woman who doesn’t have the gravitas to be President. If the world was  blundering into nuclear war, I have more faith that Trump would have the self confidence to pivot away from the compulsion to blow ourselves up.

I looked at the Siena College rankings. Drivel, like this:

‘Respondents ranked each of 45 presidents on a scale of 1 (poor) to 5 (excellent) on each of twenty presidential attributes, abilities and accomplishments. Overall rankings were computed by assigning equal weight to each of those twenty categories.’

…….

So they give each President a score on each attribute and then, this is really sophisticated, they assign equal weight to each category, LOL. A model designed to allow these presidential ‘ scholars’ to assign any ranking they want.

….

So I did my own ranking, I looked up Siena College and having leapt 200 places they are now ranked 91st among US Colleges. Gee, even lower than their ranking of Trump.

Hahahaha

Who called people who -

* complained about indoctrination of children at school board meetings; and 

*  members of the Cathoic which opposed abortion,

"WHITE DOMESTIC TERRORISTS"?

Who instructed the FBI to conduct illegal spying on 278 000 such people as exposed by the FIS Court as "illegal"?

Who had 4 court cases based on no evidence at all instituted against Trump and then called him in their hate campaigns a felon?.   That is when he was not cnvicted by an court and appeals by him if convicted of the charges be rejeced on appeal.  There is no chance that Trump woulld be convicted of any crimnal charges and that his appeals would be rejected.

Some media claims of racism has never been proved == although rpeated by the media since 2016 and never proved,   Even the Black voters do not accept thos alegations of real value.   In the latst opinion polls 48% of Black men and 33% of Black women claimed tha they intend t vote for Trump  despite the s-clled racism allegations  - that must be seen as 96% of Blacks in 1994 ved forclinton and the number dropped to 87,5% of the Black voters in 2020 supported Biden.   If the figures  refelcted in opinion poll are in act true - it is clear that increasingly the Black voters ffound out that the claims are BS,

So why is support anongst the Hispanics growing and why is the same found amogst Black voters are incraasing if there were real proof about Trump being a racist/   Why is one of Trump/s strongest supporters from the Black community the daughter of Martin Luther King?

"As for the dumb, stupid rednecks I don't recall Democratic party leaders saying that about the Trump/Republican voters."

Well you should have knwn that Biden called any opposition to him  "White Domestic terrorists"

The fact is also they accuse Trump of undermining Democracy by doing exatly what the Democrats and Biden Aministration already is doing - by using the Justice Department and FBI of using the tactics they are up  already.

By the way initial investigations indicate that the second assisination attempt on Trump was not an individual effort - but n organized attempt to kill him.   So who organized and funded the assassination attempts?   Present indications are that the CIA is probably a key element in the efforts.

The above allegations are all BS.    Biden's econmic policies in a opinion poll was rejected by 72% of the voters and 61% of the votes said his presodency is a failure.    

In all polls when asked  60 to 70% of the voters said the USA are on the wrong tract iro external and internal issues,    

Lastly the New York Times was horrified when in an investigation conducted by them over 50% of the people they interviewed said they missed the normalcy, stability and security they enjoyed under Trump and was patently upset by the chaotic conditions  now prevailing in the city,

I will be posting a great article from Revolver news which says even if Trump wins 2024 the US election system is broken. The article shows the massive flaws in the system. Only an ignorant idiot would dare suggest the system is okay. 

Bannon says the 2020 steal must be fully investigated. He is absolutely right. 

Further, Bannon blasts the Deep State and says they must be dealt with. He insists the J6 so called insurrection be thoroughly investigated and people like Liz Cheney be jailed. Again absolutely correct. I will post a video of Bannon's warning to the Deep State. 

Then I hope we have RFK Jr going after Big Pharma, CDC and FDA. By the time he is done with these genocidal maniacs mozzietard will have no leg to stand on. He will be beaten down by the evidence and facts many of which he currently denies. 

Then I hope all the perverts and pedophiles will get prosecuted as the Diddy and Epstein files are revealed. 

Then I look forward to the RFK Assassination Files being released.  This should help sink the FBI, CI A etc. 

Then hopefully a strong Attorney General lwil  launch an investigation into the lawfare against Trump, Bannon, Navarro the J6 prisoners  etc. 

Hopefully also many lawsuits will drop on the fake news Globalist media. The other day Trump filed a 10 billion dollar lawsuit on CBS. I think, if memory serves me, he is also suing ABC. 

Bye the way after the debate with Kackling K, Trump's polls went up. That was because Kackling K's serial.lies that made it appear to ignorant viewers that she had the answers etc wete brutally exposed. 

Those who opened the US Border to allow the invasion must charged with treason and if found guilty suffer the death penalty. 

I trust also that Trump will move strongly against those mutilating and sterilizing children. Again the death penalty should be considered. 

The death penalty should also be considered when convicting Cartel members etc. 

Very pleased to hear Trump will implement mass deportations. 

Trump will I think move swiftly to end the Globalist instigated war in Ukraine and bring peace to the ME. 

Oo Rooitwit was of course correct to think Trump would win. The Trump vote made it too Big to Rig. 

BUT poor Rooitwit doesn't really understand why Trump won. That is still beyond the chump. 

StavAss as usual makes a total fool of himself. To this half baked loon Trump is Hitler etc. 

What the clown has no inkling about is the coalition of working and midfke class people Trump bought onto the MAGA fold. Trump massively increased his share of the Hispanic vote to fractionslly under 50 percent. He won the Porto Rican vote. He massively increased his share off the Black Vote as well. He got 57 percent of the young vote.  He also greatly increased his share of the Jewish and Asian vote. He grabbed the Amish vote. He even got the Muslims in Michigan to vote for him as these Muslims wanted peace in tbe ME. 

All this the ignorant clown StavAss ignores. Instead he tries to bring up thoroughly debunked lies. Plum schooled him but so bent is he that he couldn't accept the truth and just dug a deeper hole for himself. 

StavAss remain a member of the very frot five for obvious reasons.

"".......are more than half of Americans stupid?"

Draad, Denise can't be wrong. Denise follows the far-left media every day and they only tell poor Denise nothing but the truth. 

They promised Denise that Trump conspired with Russia...Denise bought it. 

They promised Denise that Trump committed whatever crime he supposedly committed on the Ukraine call...Denise bought it. 

They promised Denise that Trump would be locked up...Denise bought it.

They promised Denise that Trump was a racist...Denise bought it.

They promised Denise that Trump told everybody to inject bleach into themselves...Denise bought it.

They promised Denise so many things...and Denise bought them all.


Now what you have to understand about Denise is that she's but a simple girl. Her female mind is no match for the propaganda machine that is far-left media. She'd max out all her credit cards to buy even more lies if she could. 

And will Denise ever see the light? In short, no. She's far too cowardly to peak out form under the covers and see the wood for the trees. A simple girly, not a brave girl.

And you better believe that Denise is telling herself that Trump won because America is racist and fascist. Because that is the final refuge that our most girly of girls always revert to.
