Which good work did you enjoy the most? His racism and hatred? His open support of white supremacy? Separating children from their parents at the border permanently, and caging them? Losing more than 2 million more jobs than he created? Increasing the national debt by $8 trillion and running the two highest budget deficits in history? Refusing to trainsition power to his lawfully elected successor for the first time in history? I know, there are so many "good works" to choose from.
Trump isn't a man of faith. Unless you mean faith in his ability to grift his MAGA Cult.
The people you call "honest Christians" aren't honest, and they most certainly are not Christians. Christ himself wouldn't be a Christian as they practice it, if he were here today.

@windinhishair trillion not billion

@JonLosAngeles66 Correct.

@windinhishair wow ! What have you been smoking ?! LOL

@Jake966 It is called reality. You should try it some time.

@Jake966 Where did you get your data? The unemployment rate was higher the day Trump left office than the day he was inaugurated. He is the only post-WWII president to lose jobs. He has to this day the highest and the second highest annual budget deficits in history, though Biden has reduced them. He ran up the federal debt more than any other president in history in one term.
Objectively, we are all better off with Biden than Trump. Even most Republicans realize this, though the Cult never will. How long have you been a Cultist?

@windinhishair no cult here , you must have gotten the lame duck Obama mixed up with Trump

@Jake966 It isn't my issue if you are unable to deal with facts, which are easily verified.

@windinhishair I showed them to you and you deny them , just look at the price of gas ? It was cheaper with Trump
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Jake966 The price has come down at least $1 in the past year. Is that Biden's doing? The reality is that gas prices are driven by global market forces. Any president has very little control over them other than opening the Strategic Reserve, which Biden has done.

@Jake966 Information from Instagram? wtf?
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@JimboSaturn That's what passes for "critical investigation" with the Trump Cult now.
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@JimboSaturn on the price of gas ?
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@windinhishair how about his ban on domestic drilling ? When Trump was in we were energy dependent . That’s a fact
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Jake966 The average retail price of gas when Trump came into office in January 2016 was $1.949. When he left office, it was $2.334, so it actually went up during his failed presidency.

There is no ban on domestic drilling. US Field Production was 11,124 thousand barrels per day when Trump left office. The latest data are from February 2023 and show production of 12,483 thousand barrels per day. Production has increased under Biden, not decreased, and there certainly is no ban.

Perhaps Instagram isn't the best place to go for "facts" or "data". It is a great place to go to fuel your disinformation and hate though.

@windinhishair Well Trump had 4 consecutive years of lower gas prices , then Biden took over . Oh yah , that was on google
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Jake966 Well, Trump didn't have ANY annual gas prices as low as during Obama's Administration in 2016. Thank you for providing that data and saving me the trouble of looking it up.
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@windinhishair that’s all you got out of that ? Trump had 4 years of lower gas prices and you are gonna brag about one year of Deadbeat Oboma’s lower gas prices ? I guess the dem cult really got a hold of you ! LOL

@Jake966 oil is a commodity
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Jake966 I don't pay too much attention to the price of gas as far as who is president. As I said earlier, oil prices fluctuate based on global market conditions, not who is president. If you believe it is the latter, you have to admit Obama did a better job than Trump because he had lower gas prices during his successful presidency.
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@windinhishair you are so funny ! Trump got the US energy dependent and Biden took that away which did put gas and Desiel prices at the highest in the history of the US and took no blame for it but when the prices dropped a little he claimed credit . The president doesn’t have anything to do with the price of gas ? LOL Good joke
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Jake966 As incredible as it may seem, oil and gas resources (and other energy supplies) are used globally, by all nations on earth. And GLOBAL supply and demand is the primary driver of gas prices. Any president has only limited impact on short-term prices. Why should anyone listen to you, someone who doesn't even know the difference between energy independence and dependence? And even if it was true, and the president was personally responsible for global prices, Obama's Administration saw a lower price than Trump, so you would have to credit his policies as the best, not Trump's.

@windinhishair then why are we back to being dependent on foreign oil ?
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Jake966 I see you didn't even read what I sent you, nor do you understand basic aspects of the oil and gas industry. I suggest you educate yourself before you look like an even bigger fool.
