[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can’t stand the man and glad he is gone.  He was not only corrupt- he was also dishonest and [b]took actions that will harm our country for years[/b]. His administration was horrible.  Not one effective or competent member of his cabinet.

So glad he is gone.  
Glad Trump is here to clean up his messes. [/quote]

List, please.[/quote]

Gladly.  There are a lot, but here are my top 6.

1.  Afghanistan withdrawal.  A total disaster.  Not only did he leave the taliban with billions worth of weapons, but he changed the lives of 13 families forever and brought tens of thousands of migrants here with little vetting. [b]Left a considerable amount of usable military assets behind for use by our enemies. [/b]
2.  His deplorable immigration policies.  He allowed, if not welcomed, over 10 million illegal aliens to our country, again, with little or no vetting.  And, he lost track of tens of thousands of UAM that this administration is trying to track down today.  This one issue has had major economic, humanitarian, and national security repercussions for years. 
3.  Record high inflation.  It is finally starting to level out.  Record prices.  Gas, food, goods - everything.  All due to his spending and policies. 
4.  Foreign policy.  He emboldened Iran by not enforcing sanctions.  As a result, they became more wealthy and were able to fund their proxies.  [b]Not to mention his unfreezing of $6B in Iranian assets, wonder what that money funded.[/b] It is questionable whether Oct. 7 would have occurred in Israel if Iran hadn't become so wealthy during Biden's presidency.  And, Russia saw Biden's inept handling of Afghanistan and knew he could invade Ukraine with no repercussions.  [b]Never show weakness to your enemies. [/b]
5.  Record federal regulations.  He issued a ton of needless, wasteful regulations that cost taxpayers more than 1.5 trillion $$.  Fortunately, many of these can be, and have been undone by the current administration, but to ignore his thirst for power by the federal government cannot be ignored.  
6.  Loss of trust in federal government.  His weaponization of some of our most reputable agencies has caused a total lack of trust in this agencies.  This will take years to repair. [b]We now have the term “lawfare” as part of our lexicon. [/b][/quote]

Very well said.  Added a few points in bold. [/quote]

1.  What you people get wrong on Afghanistan is that most of the equipment left behind wasn't "ours."  We got most of our high-value equipment out.  Most of what you're referring to is equipment that had been transferred to the Afghan Army and Afghan National Police over the span of 20 years, including by Trump.  It was no longer "ours" to take back.

2.  Trump's immigration policies suck.  ICE behaving like a complete band of goons, pissing through their entire budget and overspending by a billion more only 8 months into the fiscal year, wasting over $130 million to have 5,000 marines standing around doing nothing, spending more than $50,000 a person to deport them, it's completely ridiculous.

3.  Inflation???  You got a lot of gall.  Trump promised cheaper groceries, cheaper eggs, cheaper gas, yet what we got instead is taxpayers having to shell out more because of tariffs and ag labor shortages and everything else.

4. Foreign policy -  Trump promised no new wars yet since he got elected we've seen a MASSIVE escalation in global conflict and war.  He promised a deal in Ukraine yet has failed and basically walked away from it.  He promised peace in the middle east and we got even more war.  And where it's not shooting wars, it's disastrous trade wars.  Trump's foreign policy is incredibly chaotic, disastrous and destructive.

5.  "Reglalations big gubmint deep state"  - this is deranged right wing nonsense.  Nothing good is coming out of Trump's deregulation.  He loosened financial regulations which were designed to prevent a financial crisis.  He is removing consumer protections.  He is scaling back worker safety protections.  He is reducing oversight over nursing homes.  He weakened pesticide regulations and reversed bans on dangerous pesticides.  He reduced regulations protecting water quality.   These are NOT good things.  They make Americans sicker and poorer.

6. Americans trust Trump's government even less than any administration.  His polling is abysmal compared to prior presidents.   There's been less transparency than any presidency in our lifetimes.  There are far more protests because Americans consider him untrustworthy.  And sorry but court cases and criminal charges keep finding their way to him BECAUSE he is corrupt.

You are absolutely out of touch and delusional in your little bubble of MAGA la la land.[/quote]
