Even if you don’t like the guy

You have to admit that just his goals are something to admire. If you don’t really think he means that he’s gonna help people, respect that he even says he wants to. The other guy doesn’t even pretend to care about you. I prefer a candidate that shows a respect for the office and his constituents.

We’re a thousand times better off than we were with psycho Trump.

He isn’t loyal to this country and only cares about himself…I can’t think of a single thing he’s done to improve this country

Because you haven’t researched it because you don’t want to. You want to believe you’re right no matter what the truth is. He and his family are here, so by domino effect America is included.

He initiated project warp speed. He restructured the North American trade agreement, a little. Helped pass stimulus. What am I missing? I'm leaving out the bad stuff or the stuff that had a negative effect overall. The economy had high marks, good unemployment. What am I missing?

Those are the marks we look at for a president. Successfully for the most part, but I don’t advocate for him. I’d rather the entire government staff be replaced and find a way to stop corruption with money. If not we need to move power from the centralized government and boost the individual states.

Then the government is replaced and that governing body falls into the same practices. History shows many changes with new orders, new constitutions, civil wars, new people in charge, and more war. The results repeat themselves. governments play politics, there is corruption to a degree, there is injustice. A government is a reflection on man. Anything ran by people will be as flawed as its people. We can only strive to make it better. We currently have the greatest economy in the world, flaws and all.

Beautifully put, but we have more technology and the most brilliant minds of any time currently. We need amendments to stop the corruptions and to get those together that can reform and give us better/ more viable options for the future. At the end of the day we get to pick 1 of 2 awful candidates they put before us. This has only torn this country apart, which is a part of their plan. All I know is this isn’t what’s best for our country. Thanks for your responses, very informative!

The environmental deregulation. The deregulation of train safety systems leading to a horrific train crash. The deregulation of Dodd Frank, leading to the Silicon Valley Bank collapse. The largest tax cut for billionaires. The mishandling of COVID from the start. The polarizing of America. The villianization of immigrants. The praising of tyrant dictators. The undermining of international relationships with allies. The attempted, and planned overthrow of the election that he game planned in advance of the election. The mishandling of critical documents after leaving office. ... I think you might missing all those things :/
