I'm delighted you think so, though possibly also a touch bemused.
Do I need a new thread to play my Trump card, or may I maunder on indiscriminately here? I'll happily chat about all sorts else, but America's current obsession with The Donald has me quite confused.
The chap was President through the first year of Covid, and before that his first three years were focused on his Wall and his obsessive taunting of Democrats and most office-holders from the Republican party. He started with a lot of reversal of recent legislation, which is scarcely unprecedented. He cut taxes predominantly for Rich Americans which did little for his Base, he pissed on health care and he withdrew America from as many foreign obligations as he could lay his hands on. He committed his successor to handing Afghanistan back to the Afghans
What's not to like? How can anyone doubt he'll get elected in November? You couldn't specify a more flexibly ardent isolationist and who wants an active foreign policy? He's not far different in that regard than President Nixon, and President Nixon is definitely one of my most admired American politicians. I might have liked Huey Long but there's not much evidence to go on.
So. What is about The Donald that Americans dislike? I'm foreign so I don't have a voice in these matters, but I'm interested. What harm did he do?
Actually I have said all during his POTUS term, that I liked many of "Policies".
However, the problem is with Donny's narcissistic, egotistical, erratic , cruel, constant limelight seeking personality that
is totally unacceptable! He has many times been embarrassing and not couth as POTUS should be.
Unfortunately, I believe Donny will become 2024 POTUS again.
