And Trump was handed a booming economy by Obama, it took him no time at all to start dismantling it and borrowing money for tax cuts to the hyper wealthy.

Possibly true. So that means Trump was at least as good as other leaders then, doesnt it? The apocalyptic predictions of doom and gloom when he was elected did not come to pass at all.

Really? I think deficits were similar to those under Obama. Except Trump didnt hit a trillion dollar deficit until COVID, while 4 of Obama's cracked that number.

That was during Obama's first mandate, during which he inherited the worst economic crisis since decades. Trumps deficit during pre-Covid was worse than the average of Obama's kast mandate. It increased every year under Trump pre-Covid.

Great.   More encouraging news.

    Yes, and the tax cut for the hyper wealthy was all he accomplished.  Everything else was just housekeeping--and bad housekeeping, at that.

other them him refusing to accept election results (despite court cases and recount after recount) and attempts to foment a coup to stay in power along with cheering the idea of hanging his lapdog VP....along with leaving with box fulls of classified docs then lying about it over and over and refusing to return them?

 

all came to pass and still ongoing.
