Why do Americans love Donald Trump?

[Mercury]

Because Americans hate the guts of people of color, people with disabilities, Americans are a heavily prejudiced, selfish, and racist peoples. They want America to be a whites only country. They want America to be a nation of all luxury, upper class gated communities with huge mansions. They want an America where "full time" is 126 hours a week, where non-business conversations are illegal under Federal law, where everyone makes at least 6 figures or more a year, and where nobody knows anyone. No retirement ever, no services whatsoever for people with disabilities, crippled people thrown out of their homes and left to starve to death or even executed by default

Libs hate trump because he plays by their rules, lie whenever you want to. Also not that uncommon to gop either.

America is the most generous country on earth helping others around the globe, but it's the most discriminatory lol?

(well, people who would never allow thousands of young middle eastern men to just walk into this country, but will wish that for mostly hispanic men coming across the southern border...are not racist or displaying a prejudice????? Seems an open southern border is based on prejudices does it not? Toss in human trafficking and drug trafficking and the exploitation of illegal emigrants and it is obvious that legal emigration is the solution. And yes, the country is 23 trillion in debt and emigrants by percentage are more likely to use public aid than non emigrants. I personally watched little kids of murdered parents be denied the free no child left behind tutoring a few years ago. They couldn't get in because it was full of kids who could not speak english. So, when you hear someone say America needs to take care of its own a little more than it does, maybe they have seen it and there are valid reasons. Legal emigration reduces human trafficking and stops the horrible exploitation of people ware are illegal emigrants. No empathy for those killed by illegal aliens who have already been deported once before? Again, why no empathy for US citizens ? You don't believe those US citizens has the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness apparently, a constitutional right????

You sure don't want to watch Trump make the sausage, but his results are pretty unbelievable.

Economic growth back to 4 percent where the libs 5 years ago had to say the economy would never be the same to justify the Obama slowest recovery ever

Unemployment at super low 3 something percent. Low unemployment is the great equalizer. People can move from bad job to better job and competition for the workers drives up wages. Black unemployment at record low 5.9 percent, which is lowest ever since this stat began in 70s, but what is helping minorities you ask?????????????????

Negotiated NAFTA to more favorable trade agreement for the USA.

Won back Iraq that was given away by Obama after americans died winning the ground. obama lies about not being able to get a SOFA agreement, but in his debate against Romney, Obama said no I do not want a SOFA and do not want to leave 10k troops in Iraq.

Calmed down North Korea, the biggest global threat according to Obama.

Trump pulled out of Paris climate accord. What happened a year later in Nov and Dec 2018, the french citizens protested and rioted against high energy prices this caused and the French did a quick reversal on those particular actions.

oh, for the racism again, how about the criminal justice reform "First Step Act" that many thought could not push forward? No credit there?

Somewhat ended Obama care health care takeover by government by ending the mandate, which was a campaign promise. Actually, a president doing what he campaigned on, shocking though as it seldom happens.

Appointed 2 conservative judges off his published list to supreme court, thereby keeping a campaign promise and conservatives happy.

So other than the country being more prosperous and safer, etc etc what has trump done lol?? Again don't watch him make the sausage against all the other lying politicians, just look at the results. Results are actually very astounding. Economic growth, Super Low unemployment, trade agreements, turned around war zone given back, criminal justice reform........ All in two years. Isn't hat actually like unbelievable success if you step back and think about that? I hope trump holds the government shut down until the POS congress does its job and writes emigration law instead of blaming the president and others for them refusing to do their own jobs and pass legislation to change their own bad laws. Congress hasn't done crap as they refuse to agree to anything, and nothing gets done. Trump trying to find away to make them actually negotiate and agree to something in an area it is their job to fix.

yep at times looks kind of wacko, lots of turnover which typically is not good, has worthless politicians on both sides attack or fail to support at times, but the bottom line results , actually are astoundingly good. As Mark Twain said, diapers and politicians should be changed often for the same reasons. But, trumps results, pretty amazing.

PS: in case it has been missed, Hillary Clinton and John Kerry have flipped and are again supporting a stronger non open border lol. Just as dems and Schumer did in 2006. And think about this idiotic lie . The libs now crying the wall is not what stops emigration so is kind of pointless. Really, if the libs believed the wall doesn't matter , then why not easily trade that non impactful wall to pacify trump supporters , for DACA?? Think about it, the libs aren't willing to give in to something that they think doesn't impact anyway lol!! And oh, the president proposed a wall and DACA with more forgiveness than Obama proposed, last Jan/Feb, but the two sides refused to agree to the obvious compromise. Again, you can see why Trump has shut down the gov't to make them agree to the obvious compromise. (Answer: Libs fear if trump gets his wall, he has high chance of being reelected. This is about stopping trump from being reelected, not so much about a wall that some claim doesn't work. (Even though the border patrol says they would use portions of walls in certain locations)

[gsjackson]

I'm not entirely sure who Trump is yet, but if the Q narrative is true -- and there's some reason to think it is -- he will go down as the greatest American president by far.

[traveller]

Donald Trump is a horrible, terrible president! Toxic, twisted, and corrupt. Trump has done nothing but harm to America. He is stealing children from their parents and locking them in prison camps. He is cutting services, including subsidized housing, for people with disabilities. All he cares about is building another wall, when there already is a wall on America's south border. He has sided with several known dictators, including Kim Jong-Un. And now with this government shutdown, there is going to be an explosion of homelessness all over the United States. People with disabilities who can't work will end up on the streets, exposed to the harsh elements, many of the crippled ones up north will have no way of migrating south to escape winter's brutal freeze.

[NMBob]

The only problem with your rant is, it is so inaccurate and totally contrary to what is going on. The fed is making all social security and disability payments both SSDI and SSI. I know people on SSDI, they have been paid since the shutdown!
Contrary to your post, disability payments SSDI and SSI are unaffected by the shutdown.

https://www.businessinsider.com/governm ... aid-2018-1

"Funding for the programs under Titles II, XVI, and XVIII of the Social Security Act will continue, even in the event of a lapse in appropriations," the plan says.

A shutdown only affects funds annually appropriated by Congress, not funding that is sustained long-term. The Social Security trust fund is paid for through a combination of taxes and long-term investments.

Other core functions like disability claims or appeals over benefits would continue to function.

For the military and veterans, VA disability payments, Survivor Benefits Plan payments, and retiree payments would all be made because those funds also come from non-annual appropriations.

While previous shutdowns have led to the furlough of Social Security employees and some services, a full-year funding agreement for the Social Security Administration was reached in September so the agency is not affected this time around.

And, just as happened decades ago in government shutdowns, some of which were before booming economic conditions (Clinton / Gingrich) that I somehow survived .......many banks are advancing the salaries to fed workers anyway.

https://www.cnbc.com/2019/01/07/banks-c ... tdown.html

Remember , unlike some other times, 75 percent of the government is already funded right now. So it is only a 25 percent shutdown. And, they have already announced those on furlough ....will get back pay. Folks, that is a decent deal if you think about it, many would jump on it given the chance, to get an additional 3 weeks paid vacation, to be paid at the end of vacation.

I wouldn't say I "love" Donald Trump as president. I never liked his bullying and arrogant personality especially on his show, but I grudgingly respected that he was a successful businessman that made deals and built massive real estate projects. And who else was there to vote for. It had gotten so bad from both parties for so many years that during the 2016 primaries, there was just a socialist and scheming witch on the left, and bought out boring drones on the right saying the same do-nothing stuff over again. The dems of 40 years ago were more like the minor far right wing conservatives today. Trump was the first true outsider in a long time and possibly the last one we'll ever see reach the office and so far it's been refreshingly different from the same bought out politics for decades, so I'd think the country could take a break from the downslide to ruin for a few more years.

[NMBob]

pretty accurate asiabc

[Mr Natural]

I grudgingly respected that he was a successful businessman

Really? What I see is a terrible "businessman" who has made a lot of money screwing people and publicizing himself as great. He went bankrupt six times and every time flew away in his private jet. Would have been seven times if his daddy hadn't bailed him out. Look it up. The truth is he's a terrible manager, how do you go bankrupt running a casino? I saw somewhere that with the hundreds of millions he inherited from daddy, if he had just invested it in mutual funds he would've ended up with more. He is a pathological liar, a racist, and a huckster. But you do have to give him credit for that, because he is a world-class huckster. Your point about there not being anyone else to vote for is understood, but putting a guy like this in as our leader is highly questionable thinking. In any event, he won't get reelected because he's not even going to last through his first term. Once the Mueller report comes out he will be finished, it's going to be money laundering, obstruction of justice, and who knows what else. I give it about a 95% chance that he resigns sometime this year. Just like Nixon, once the votes line up he isn't just going to sit there and let them throw him out. He will try to spin the resignation some way to try and make himself look good, it's a frame up or a conspiracy against him etc. But he will resign.

Wanna bet whether Trump makes it through his first term? You can't be serious about the Mueller Report, two years in the works now with not so much as an incriminating leak. Mueller's more likely to indict Hillary for the uranium caper than he is Trump for anything. Have any of your predictions about Trump over the last three years come to pass?

If Trump is removed or forced from office, you can expect the Civil War 2.0 to kick off in earnest. Some say we are already in a soft Civil War 2.0. But if a Deep State coup takes place via Mueller or anyone else, there will be the showdown of all showdowns.

I wish I could believe you. The sooner the right kicks off and exterminates parasitic vermin like you the better. But it is always "Right, we're going, well you go, no you first etc.". I hope this will be the kicker.

Projecting again Cornfed? Members of the elite such as Digital Nomads and Perpetual Travelers don’t get their hands dirty in proletarian skirmishes. We watch human waste like yourself fight such battles while we relax from above.

Actually, you more than anyone needs to have a life purpose so I encourage you to join that fray to try to give that sad life of yours some measure of value. I’ll be thinking about your ultimate fate from some beachfront with a sweet, cold Tom Collins in my hand.

Including quite possibly a military coup. There is a large segment of people who believe that Trump was asked several years ago by a coterie of generals and admirals to run for the presidency, and his agreement forestalled a coup against the Obama regime. Their belief is that the ruthless oligarchy represented by Obama, Bush and the Clintons doesn't just exercise total control, they are into some really dark stuff, like human trafficking.

In any case, lots of people are wise now to the propaganda ways of the Deep State and its presstitute media corps. If Trump is assassinated or driven from office on bogus charges (and anything involving Russia will be completely bogus), there will be some form of rebellion.

America has nothing but death written all over it. Yes, it's bad that Trump is throwing kids into prison camps. But American women murder millions of unborn children every day. They murder them through abortion. So not only are American women toxic, hateful, and spoiled rotten with a bad attitude, but the womb of an American woman has become the #1 most dangerous place on Earth, over a thousand times more deadly and dangerous than Berlin at the height of the Second World War.

And it's also terrible that Trump is getting rid of Medicaid and services for the disabled. But people in wheelchairs get violently shoved right over, even brutally murdered, by non-disabled people every day in America. Black and ethnic people are getting murdered every day by white people in America, and the trend is rapidly worsening. Americans have but one philosophy; destroy and devour the poor and give all to the rich.

[Mr Natural]

One thing I didn't see coming is that Mueller has handed off all of the cases involving financial crimes. The obstruction of justice stuff alone might enough for democrats but it will take the financial crimes to turn enough republicans in the senate to convict. Financial misdeeds are where the real dirt is on him. There are 14 known cases other prosecutors are investigating, but it remains to be seen whether any or all of those cases are resolved before the election. My time table may be off but I still predict he will likely resign. He wouldn't stand much chance of being re-elected anyway, just too many have been turned off with his various bullshit. So he won't be around much longer in any event.
