The last 4 years have been the most exciting in the history of our nation for us. Finally, a dark horse underdog who absolutely humiliated his rivals and won the Presidency. Legendary unemployment across the board, Peace in the Middle East, mud in the eye of our enemies, obliterating terrorists, tax cuts, stocks up, people motivated, irreverent comments, outlandish verve to everyone. Made us proud to be Americans. We stood tall in the world.
No Apologies...ever.
MAGA
Trump will never again hold public office. Forget about 2024.

Not just Trump, but I don't think we will see the GOP as a majority for a long time.
For those of us that propersered the last four years, all we can do it be thankful and look forward to the next 4 to 8 years and hope they are just as good.
As far as policies, what was alarming about them ? Any specific ones ?
I'll start, I wasn't happy with how the trade war thing was working out. Something needed to be done, we've been taken advantage of for too long, but what he did seemed like too little to late. Maybe in time it would have worked out, who knows.
It's how elections rarely work in this country. The majority of the time, the President wins the majority of the popular vote AND the electoral college.
As far as policies, what was alarming about them? His rejection of science. That's alarming. His inability to craft a federal response to Covid-19 while creating a scenario where states were competing with each other to obtain resources to deal with the medical emergency. That's alarming. His foreign policy stances where he pushed away our allies while seeming to admire authoritatian regimes. That's alarming. His environmental policies, where environmental protections were seen as obstacles that needed to be removed. We don't need to protect the stinking environment. That's alarming. And I agree, the trade war thing was not great. Tariffs get passed on to consumers, which is something a businessman should understand.

See, here I disagree with you. Because we have a two-party system in this country, each of the parties are remarkably resilient. I look at South Texas and how well the GOP did in 2020 there, and it looks to me like they can capitalize very well on the Democrat's shortcomings.

Don't forget the montrosity of a wall at the Mexico border as a solution to illegal immigration.
I'm sure even the old school GOP members like Mitch McConnell must have known Trump was batship crazy.
Is this the official "we're going to stop talking about the fake fraud" thread?
Congrats. This is a YUGE step for MAGA.
The Republican party bids you adieu. (that means bye y'all)
I WISH the GOP would denounce and annex Trump supporters. Good riddance to bad rubbish and a good first step towards reclaiming legitimacy instead of becoming a swap meet outside a truck rally.
No you just didn't like that he couldn't controlled and probably didn't like his confidence. Makes most people jealous. He didn't bow to your government which is cesspool of money hungry useless *****. Trump doesn't need you money, your government does.
Although I think it would be a waste of time to impeach him with 12 days left it could happen. Then he'll have the distinction of being the only president in history to be impeached twice.
