I was really hoping you were going to make a cogent point. I'm a little disappointed.

Dubya massively overspent, started an unneccessary war, embarked on a useless nation building program in Afghanistan, foisted the ironically named 'Patriot Act. on America, got his buddy (((Cherthoff))) set up with that sweet, sweet pr0no machines at the airport contract, enriched Cheney's Halliburton and the other defense contractors.

Trump ended wars, and negotiated peace deals Oh, he also massively overspent and he banned bump stocks, so really, just as bad as Bush.

Trump failed to get rid of the TSA and allow private security screeners to resume the work in the airport. Reagan failed to eliminate the Department of Education. We can find fault with every president.

Full disclosure: I hated both Bushes with a passion, including when Dubya kept getting reelected as our governor. I thought it couldn't be more embarrassing, until we ended up with former cheerleader, empty headed but great hair having Rick Perry.

TRUMP needs to learn from his past mistakes, the fact that if he wins he will not have another term means he needs to be ruthless, and take heads off.

He was never a politician, he does not need to be one if re-elected, he simply needs to have a priority list, and do ALL THINGS to accomplish them.

He simply needs to be effective and efficient, which is done by serving us first.

He was effective and efficient beyond belief in this first term. Unreal on how much he accomplished. He actually turned the Queen Mary around. In spite of being bombed with rotten tomatoes the entire time. The problem is, Biden and his handlers were able to turn it all to shit in less than 30 days. After Trump, then what?

Trump was effective in signing executive orders that allowed Biden and company to reverse all those policies in no time.

Had Trump truly been effective, he would have been able to work the system to enact lasting change.

In the end, this ^^ is all that matters. The "why" is secondary.

An old quote falsely attributed to Donald Trump has recently resurfaced online. The viral meme alleges Trump told People magazine in 1998 that Republicans are “the dumbest group of voters in the country”. This is false.
While the quote has been debunked several times since it apparently surfaced in 2015, users have recently been resharing it on social media.

People magazine has confirmed in the past that its archive has no register of this alleged exchange.
“People looked into this exhaustively when it first surfaced back in Oct. (2015). We combed through every Trump story in our archive. We couldn’t find anything remotely like this quote–and no interview at all in 1998.”, a magazine spokesperson told Factcheck.org that year.
People’s magazine archive shows Trump did appear in the publication in the 1990s, but the coverage was mostly centered on his personal relationships. On September 2, 1987, shortly after releasing a full-page newspaper ad criticizing U.S. foreign policy, Trump identified himself as a Republican during an interview with CNN’S Larry King.

He didn't have to thank the Clinton's "for their service" but he looked genuine when he did. I can't help but believe they're actually friends and not political opponents. He's on record saying he's a Democrat, too. Just a lot of evidence he's bullshiting us.

I would have much preferred DeSantis or Noem, two people that stood up to the Swamp at great personal risk. I'll vote for him but when anyone here starts plugging this guy as some kind of Savior, I'm going to continue to post the plethora of evidence, that says otherwise.

Did you listen to the Kari Lake tape? The 'system' isn't interested in working with anyone who can't be bought or controlled. The people running that system don't want what I want, and they don't want what YOU want, either.

That's not Trump's fault. It's your fault, and my fault, for not electing people who can't be bought. Look at John Cornyn, my Texas senator. Supposed conservative, history of sell out votes. I finally quit e-mailing him about upcoming votes because he voted against my wishes every time. Yet Texas can't seem to get rid of him.

Look at Dan "Eyepatch McCain" Crenshaw. Lots of words, lots of promises, and voila, he sold out QUICK.

It's not my fault nor yours. It's Liberals to a degree but the real power lies with the fiat dollar and the people that control it. I see no reason they wouldn't control the vast majority of government and the voting process, itself. I know you're familiar with the book "The Creature From Jekyll Island", and it's author certainly believes the money powers control most everything of importance.

Trump calls himself the King of Debt but the hand that lends is above the one that borrows. They could ruin him quickly by simply cutting off his credit and yet they don't.

Times telling and I'll believe he's legit when he proves it like Argentinas new President Javier Milei. That dude is making a name for himself, the right way.
