I, like many, detest Trump would have voted for anyone other than him. That was Harris, but I was never enthusiastic about her. I'm curious what others in the same boat think about how things are going.
Here's my top dislikes and likes about Trump's second term so far: Dislikes: 1) Tariffs / trade policy 2) Unfettered, and frankly unfathomable, grift and corruption 3) The appointment of idiots and morons to critical positions (e.g., Hegseth) 4) Massive deficit spending 5) His long-term de-stabilizing theft of power from congress and the judiciary Likes: 1) Securing the border and deporting illegal entrants 2) The anti-DEI policies and pro woman's rights in sports (yes, I have conservative views here) 3) Can't think of anything else I like at the moment. |
My kid is taking a government class over the summer.
I would recommend that for you since you have absolutely no idea what you are losing/have already lost. |
Hegseth is already more successful than Austin.
Our POTUS isn’t demented. Our POTUS’ children aren’t drug addled philanderers. They certainly don’t bed their in-laws and get them addicted to crack. Iran is humbled. Hamas is about to commit to a cease-fire. The more I type, the better things look. So much winning from one side, so much whining from the other. |
![]() Soo much winning |
Most Americans will agree with most of these likes and dislikes. Not all. The likes list is short for most of us but it does exist. |
Agreed. It’s nice to find common ground in this cesspit of failed ideology. |
What will the country look like for you by and by? Belarus or Russia, do you think? |
The brown shirts and concentration camps are disturbing. I’d add that to your dislike list. |
They don't see them yet Do far they are coming "for the illegals." |
You are clearly not one of the 20 million poor and/or disabled people who are losing their health insurance. Typical selfish Dump voter. |
DP. No, I'm one of the people paying for their health insurance through federal and state subsidies. They are not owed anything from me. |
OP - I love your post, as I also begrudgingly voted for Harris as an anti-Trump voter.
I like and support the principle behind many of the EOs and policies, just not necessarily the way some of them are being implemented. Too extreme for my taste. Likes: Illegal Immigration/Deportation of Illegal Aliens DOGE - the theory and principle Ending DEI - the theory and principle Gender EO Keeping Men out of Womens Sports EO Designating English as the Official Language of the United States EO Dislikes: Deportation of Illegal Aliens - the axe job methodology, lack of accountability...illegal actions of ICE agents DOGE - the axe job methodology without foresight Ending DEI - the axe job methodology without foresight (using key search terms indiscriminately) Tariff Wars (although honestly, depending on how this plays out in the next year, this may move to the like column) Foreign Policy (although honestly, depending on how this plays out in the next year, this may move to the like column) Neither Like nor Dislike: Big Beautiful Bill -- I am reserving judgment on this for now. I do have to say, though, for all those griping about people losing healthcare.....in regards to Medicaid, I am specifically in favor of more frequent eligibility checks. I actually know someone who is receiving Medicaid because they gamed the system. I do think there needs to be more scrutiny and accountability on all spending. |
The stupidity on this thread and in this country right now is staggering. The days of US dominance are over. Kaput. I hope I get to see all you morons reap the karma someday. |
There is an agency division dedicated to fraudulent activity. You can report the person who is “gaming the system”. |
Trump is unfit for office.
Like the massive tax cut I’m getting but dislike that it destabilizes our economy and is off the backs of the poor, especially children. That said I’m eagerly awaiting Trump leaving office and the poor riding up against the Republicans. I hope this is the death of the GOP. |
