Donald Trump is a very good President just because he doesn’t want to just give everything away doesn’t make him a bad President..

@ItsRichard trump is a womanising misogynist, a hopeless businessman, a cruel creature, a very dishonest fool, a serious danger to the stability of the planet and is making himself richer by taking advantage of his position. I would not trust him as far as I could throw him, nowhere. He is unstable and thinks he is above the law, hopefully, for the good of the planet, he will be impeached soon.

@uknaked you wrong are and listen to fake news, and pay attention to propaganda then living in the real world.. He is the only President that hasn’t taken a pay check, He didn’t need to become President to make money... Obama would have ruined America if he could have been in another term.. I think that Traitor should be in jail..

@ItsRichard I sympathise with your delusional fantasies, trump is bad, Obama was the very best President you have had. I suppose you support the NRA and mass murder of kids as well!
ItsRichard · M
@uknaked Yes I stand with the NRA because I’m going to protect the freedoms we still have. I DO NOT SUPPORT THE MASS KILLINGS OF ANYONE. So don’t even go there. I have 2 daughters and they are educated on how to use them, also guns don’t kill its the person. There has to be an issue there and just pointing at the guns doesn’t solve the problem if a killer is going to kill they will find a way to do it..

@ItsRichard You are deluded, the only reason you need guns is because everybody has them, around 60% of all murders in the US are gun deaths, at around 14,000, plus gun injuries of around 25,000. We do not have a proliferation of guns, and gun deaths are very rare. There is a direct correlation between ownership numbers and gun deaths or injuries. The NRA are not interested in preserving life, they just want their manufacturers and retailers to make money. When will you thickos realise that it is the availability of guns that directly causes many more gun deaths.
ItsRichard · M
@uknaked I don’t see it making anything better, I believe in education and training, and that’s great if that works for you, just because your country went one way with gun control doesn’t mean we have to follow. I don’t believe in a one world government...

@ItsRichard The sentence I hear most from well-meaning, conservative friends since President Trump’s election is this: “We suffered 8 years under Barack Obama.”
Fair enough. Let’s take a look.
The day Obama took office, the Dow closed at 7,949 points. Eight years later, the Dow had almost tripled, closing at 21,414.
General Motors and Chrysler were on the brink of bankruptcy, with Ford not far behind, and their failure, along with their supply chains, would have meant the loss of millions of jobs. Obama pushed through a controversial, $8o billion bailout to save the car industry. The U.S. car industry survived, started making money again, and the entire $80 billion was paid back, with interest.
While we remain vulnerable to lone-wolf attacks, no foreign terrorist organization has successfully executed a mass attack here since 9/11.
Obama ordered the raid that killed Osama Bin Laden.
He drew down the number of troops from 180,000 in Iraq and Afghanistan to just 15,000, and increased funding for the Department of Veterans Affairs.
He launched a program called Opening Doors which, since 2010, has led to a 47 percent decline in the number of homeless veterans.
He set a record 73 straight months of private-sector job growth.
Due to Obama’s regulatory policies, greenhouse gas emissions decreased by 12%, production of renewable energy more than doubled, and our dependence on foreign oil was cut in half.
He signed The Lilly Ledbetter Act, making it easier for women to sue employers for unequal pay.
His Omnibus Public Lands Management Act designated more than 2 million acres as wilderness, creating thousands of miles of trails and protecting over 1,000 miles of rivers.
He reduced the federal deficit from 9.8 percent of GDP in 2009 to 3.2 percent in 2016.
For all the inadequacies of the Affordable Care Act, we seem to have forgotten that, before the ACA, you could be denied coverage for a pre-existing condition and kids could not stay on their parents’ policies up to age 26.
Obama approved a $14.5 billion system to rebuild the levees in New Orleans.
All this, even as our own Mitch McConnell famously asserted that his singular mission would be to block anything President Obama tried to do.
While Obama failed on his campaign pledge to close the prison at Guantanamo Bay, that prison’s population decreased from 242 to around 50.
He expanded funding for embryonic stem cell research, supporting groundbreaking advancement in areas like spinal injury treatment and cancer.
Credit card companies can no longer charge hidden fees or raise interest rates without advance notice.
Most years, Obama threw a 4th of July party for military families. He held babies, played games with children, served barbecue, and led the singing of “Happy Birthday” to his daughter Malia, who was born on July 4.
Welfare spending is down: for every 100 poor families, just 24 receive cash assistance, compared with 64 in 1996.
Obama comforted families and communities following more than a dozen mass shootings. After Sandy Hook, he said, “The majority of those who died today were children, beautiful little kids between the ages of 5 and 10 years old.”
Yet, he never took away anyone’s guns.
He sang Amazing Grace, spontaneously, at the altar.
He was the first president since Eisenhower to serve two terms without personal or political scandal.
He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
President Obama was not perfect, as no man and no president is, and you can certainly disagree with his political ideologies. But to say we suffered?
If that’s the argument, if this is how you suffered for 8 years under Barack Obama, compare this to trumps record.

@uknaked some of Trumps accomplishments sense taking office, I say he’s a damn good president anyone in our military and veterans support him, there has to be a good reason for that, I stand by my president.
With the passage of the GOP tax bill this week, the Trump administration has scored 81 major achievements in its first year, making good on campaign promises to provide significant tax cuts, boost U.S. energy production, and restore respect to the United States, according to the White House.
And along the way, President Trump even outdid his own expectations and slashed at least 11 major legacy items of former President Barack Obama, including cracking down on the open border, slowing recognition of communist Cuba and effectively killing Obamacare by ending the mandate that everyone have health insurance or face a tax.
According to the White House, the 81 accomplishments are in 12 major categories and include well over 100 other minor achievements.

You poor deluded fool, trump is wrecking environmental protections that protect people, he has no concern for humans, is racist, completely homophobic, and has no real sense of humanity, I feel very sad for your delusions, and belief of white house shite. He is certainly making millions for his companies, from his position as #45.
