Trump Accomplishments

[TheMalcolmConnection]

I agree with this. I try really hard to see both sides, but the shit he's said/done, I wouldn't waste a turd by pooping on his face.

What makes it extra hard to handle is HE seems to take all the credit...

Lol, never waste a good duece.

Speaking of shit, yes, he does have diarrhea of the mouth. Sometimes the best response is just to STFU.

And yes, Trump loves himself some Trump. I agree with a lot of his policies so I probably overlook the other stuff more than I should. Some of the shit he says is pretty funny tho. But he could dial it down a notch or 5 most times.

Trumps (only) accomplishment ...

Made American foreign policy unpredictable.

China knows that previously our foreign policy was always to de-escalate and slow moving. China was just doing death by a thousand paper cuts to us. They knew that if their violations or ingresses were small enough in nature that didnt warrant a major US response, they could slowly just repeat the same pattern over and over, moving the ball ever so slightly down the field but while maintaining the status quo because no single event was big enough to set off the alarms. Then looking back 50 years, they would have achieved their goal by taking a long and patient road.

Also, China knew that the US would debate and debate before ever doing anything about anything so we are always slow to respond and always look to de-escalate.

Now, Trump is so unpredictable. Look at Iran, their response to us killing their rock star General over the last 40 years was so muted because they were warned that Trump is erratic and he may go all in if he feels he has to save face. So Iran dialed it back, not wanting to prompt the unpredictable.

The Chinesse man made islands in the S China Sea are a good example. Couple of buckets of sand a day isnt alarming. But do that every day for 10 years ... and you have yourself a landing strip and military outpost established directly in contested waters.

Man Sunnyside, idk if anybody has properly welcomed you, but I do. It's fresh perspectives like this that deserve recognition around here.

This is something I'm perfectly willing to give Trump credit for.

Hey, as Trumpers, Trumpettes, and whatever names you come up with, we'll take all compliments. Even backhanded ones.

Here’s a bit from trump’s speech today in davos:

Since my election, America has gained over seven million jobs. The unemployment rate is now less than 3.5%. We’re concentrating and creating the most inclusive economy ever to exist. We are lifting up Americans of every race, color, religion, and creed. Since I took office, more than two million Millennials have gotten jobs, and their wages have grown by nearly 5% annually — a number that was unthinkable. This is a blue-collar boom. Since my election, the net worth of the bottom half of wage earners has increased by plus-47%, three times faster than the increase for the top 1%. Real median household income is at the highest level ever recorded. The American dream is back bigger, better, and stronger than ever before.


He’s right

Chico you're fooled easily.

Trump’s job growth falls short of Obama’s last three years

The Labor Department’s revised job count lowered the April 2018 to March 2019 by 501,000. Assuming that the almost 42,000 per month lower number is spread evenly across the 12 months, Trump’s 2018 total of 2.303 million jobs falls short of Obama’s 2014 to 2016 results and essentially matches his 2.302 million for 2013. And 2018 was helped by Trump’s tax cut sugar high.

Read the article. Then Googled the author and every article that had anything to do with Trump was negative. Shocking.

You might actually be Chuck Jones.

I score your link as an effing joke.

Nothing in Chico's post even referenced Obama. Not sure what your obsession with Obama is anytime someone mentions Trump. Nothing in your link makes what Chico's post said untrue. And nothing in his post takes anything positive away from what Obama did. You get defensive about Obama even when no one says anything bad about him.

But here's some more info you will just call bullshit and post some Huffpost article.

^^^^^

It is absolutely unacceptable that he added that to our debt. I never even here him talking about the deficits or debt either. That is a failure on his part. I know he can't reduce it himself, but he ran on it as something he would do, and has ignored it altogether. Terrible.

Agreed. This is one area that the republicans and Trump let their constituents down. That is not saying the tax reform was wrong, but as always they don't follow thru with trimming budgets at the same time.

Federal government has 3 main roles imo:

1. National security
2. Promoting policies that promote a robust economy
3. Budget

The 1st issue both parties are war mongers, the 2nd issue the parties mostly disagree on, and the 3rd issue they're all in cahoots to spend spend spend and screw us all over.
