As a man who claims to have some love of objectivity would you care to enlighten us on which part of Trump's policies you don't agree with?

Tariffs and war. Otherwise he seems ok.

Thanks. Was not aware of where the quote originated but am familiar with Robert Owen as I lived, and visited, New Harmony, IN on occasion.

Many people would argue the opposite and would say that Trump supporters at this stage of his second term are lacking critical thinking and the ability to demonstrate a reasonable level of objectivity.

If it responds it will be the shortest post of its current short posting spell on AN.

It is incapable, in all its recent AN guises of saying ANYTING against Trump!

The latest data from the March 2026 jobs report (released in early April) shows a significant rebound in the U.S. labor market, defying many economists' expectations after a difficult start to the year.

Key Figures (March 2026)

• Nonfarm Payrolls: Added 178,000 jobs (well above the projected ~65,000).

• Unemployment Rate: Decreased slightly to 4.3%.

Seems all who oppose the being called trump are labeled "haters". I, for one do not "hate" as I see "hate" as blind emotion. Oh, I vehemently oppose trump but I have reasoning supporting my opposition. Bottom line is, trump is what he always has been, is and will continue to be.

Of course Trump is for himself first, but making anything people like work also makes him look good, and his Maga has a lot of people hoping, so again, we have to wait until it's all said and done before making judgement.

Iran has no chance against America now that their military is almost gone. The more they push, the more they'll be demolished, so it's time for them to make changes, with the help of their people, so this crap doesn't start up ever again. It doesn't matter how much is spent by either side, as it's going more against Iran the more they try to block boats from going through the Strait. Losing money is how countries change things. They killed the heads, and will continue until the heads are replaced with normal thinking. Progressive and not genocidal.

The war has continued this far because Congress is okay with it, obviously. There can't be bugging out, because that leaves Iran's regime with free reign to do what it wants, after rebuilding it's military. A war can be won by taking money away from the regime. You go broke, and lose trade, make neighbors your enemies, and you are on a downhill spiral. Israel won't stop until Iran is finished, and Israel has a military while Iran has little left, and the US hasn't even begun to use all it has. It's time for negotiations.

Please keep up, the Strait of Hormuz is closed again. How many bombs and missiles does America have left? Iran's leadership is a hydra, kill one and you get another even more extreme.

America can't win this war without boots on the ground, don't you understand?

America is good at starting wars, it is lousy at finishing them. Surgical strikes like Venezuala, certainly. It gave Afghanistan back to the Taliban after almost 20 years.

Per capita, Iran produces twice as many engineers and scientists as America does. They have been preparing for war with the great Satan for more than 40 years.

If you think this war will have a quick end without major concessions from America, you are delusional. Iran has the world by the balls, and it knows it.

Iran has mega inflation. The country is stuffed. America can belt them again for months. You have no idea.

So America is short on weapons? The same nation who bombed Vietnam for 20 years has a 3 month supply 555

Iran 90% food inflation. No airforce or navy left. GDP going down 6%. Hated by its neighbours has the upper hand? 5555

You should do stand up!

Please try not to assume, as i not only get all the news you can look up, but have friends and family in the military, all Americans, who know more of what's going on than some of the biased media. You don't only kill the heads but kill the spirit of them. That's when normal thinking Iranians, peace wanting, not terrorist thinking, can come into play. America has won every facet of this war since day one. That's what your bias doesn't see.

America could finish any war it started, but looks at casualties on our side and decides to withdraw, even if all objectives aren't met.

There are thousands of Iranians killed, along with decimating their military, and the US hasn't lost but a few men and weapons, of which they have a lot more then you think.

Calling America Satan is ignorance. You hate Trump, so keep it with that thinking, as it isn't about Americans but the government's decisions, which were necessary anyway. I'm thinking you want America to lose, so Iran's terrorist regime can rebuild then strike anywhere it wants. America has Iran by the balls, and some are too biased to see this.

If America wanted to destroy all of Iran, it would do so, but they aren't looking at killing more civilians nor taking out their infrastructure, as that would have a lot more hating America. You go by what you hear on media, and aren't hearing but a fraction of what's going on behind closed doors, nor what all the motives are here. There are obvious ones, and ones you haven't thought about. It means nothing what scientists Iran has. America could wipe the country out without losing any more men. You have no idea what thinkers America has as you're too focused on Trump.
