He wants to put America to work - only 46% of them buy that
Mr trumps relationship with his adversaries is very much like that with my ex

I like threads like this, they bring the lib_tards out in droves and I can just add name after name to my ignore list, which actually does much to make city-data a much more pleasant place to be.

I enjoy intelligent disagreement but most of this is simply AOC or Hank Johnson level of thought.

The U.S. was in sharp decline before Trump, the globalist in both the Republican and Democratic party where running rampant, dismantling the institutions of this nation, dismantling the rungs to the ladder of success, we were being told:

you did not build that
those jobs are not coming back

All the while the general public was being forced to accept the dismantling of their culture and society by hoards of third world nationals clawing at our doors.

Trump came in, gave us an unprecedented economic boom, allowed people from multi-generational welfare households a chance to earn an honest living and rest the stage for the honest, hard working people of this nation. All of a sudden you could say Merry Christmas again instead of happy holidays. Once again the winds of greatness filled this nations sails. If ever a man, a natural born leader, could lead a nation out of the abyss, it is: Donald J. Trump. Clearly among the greatest Presidents this nation ever had.

And note I blame both Republicans and Democrats for the sorry state this nation is in. But Trump, is no more a Republican than I am. He simply took up a dusty mantle he did not agree with, dusted it off and stamped his own brand on the fabric. Hence the animosity from the entrenched Republican party who detest his as much as the Democrats do.

I don't even blame them really because it's not like anyone has ever encountered this situation before. It's a new virus that is uniquely dangerous because it is so much more contagious that other similar bugs. So I don't say Cuomo and deBlasio are to blame for most of the deaths. I'm not so political that I would blame someone acting in good faith for deaths from a virus, even if they are Democrats who wouldn't hesitate to do it to me. That's the difference between me and the really sad, pathetic people that make up the Democrat base.
I don't believe ANYONE blames Trump for the pandemic. It his response to it that is an epic fail.
How many times was he telling the public the complete opposite of what his experts were saying?
I heard him say it would disappear like magic.
No one blames him but, we could have had a 3rd grader do better as far as speaking to the public & then came his many denials sometimes hours after he misled people.
You say your not so political that you blame someone acting in good faith,then call the other side "sad" & "pathetic" people. That says it all.

Talking Trump will lead us out of the abyss

Amusing...

The abyss that tRump is headed to is one nobody wants to accompany him into.

In less than 6 months, America decides.

Spare us. The tactic of blaming him for the response is no different than blaming the pandemic on him. You are claiming that Trump is to blame for people dying. That's pathetic and sad. Why can't you liberals ever 1) be honest or 2) put aside politics for the greater good?

Agreed, however, I would classify Trump as a psycopath as opposed to a sociopath. I really think he was born with those tendencies as opposed to social conditioning and has always been evil.

At the time, Pelosi was actively seeking to prevent the president from having the power to make those moves.....but you conveniently leave that part out.
Too late and I already addressed that in my post.

No testing - no tracking - no sense of urgency. It was a farce.

He abandoned his own responsibility because he was trying to pull a Jedi mind trick on the markets. Trump doesn't want to do anything that would 'give the wrong impression', like "hey, this is serious!". Trump wanted to fake out the people, and many got sick.

~ Like Louisiana, trusting in Trump's assurances, let the Mardi Gras celebrations go forward. Two weeks later there was a huge spike and people living as far away as Virginia were coming home with it. ~

Trump wants to play down the extent and dangers of this menace. That's why he didn't want people around him and white house staffers to wear masks. Suddenly they are getting sick.

A bunch of idiots.

Then he realizes that he was completely wrong about presidential authority and pretends he is "allowing" the states to handle it themselves. He doesn't understand state's rights and he doesn't know his job.

So he can't legally force the states to open, he won't admit it, and he launches the goon squads to try to force states to open by other means. Not for the health and well being of the people, but because he is under the mistaken impression that he can revive the economy before the November election (and somehow save his corrupt presidency), and the unnecessary deaths that will cause are acceptable to him.

Trump abandoned and neglected his role from the outset, and everyone knows that. Your BS now will do nothing to change it.

Nope.

It was going to be bad regardless. Trump dropped the ball in the early weeks when prompt action could have had the most beneficial effect. It could have saved many lives, perhaps many thousands.

Epidemics grow exponentially, that is what the R-naught number is all about. The early indications were that this one was going to be really bad (and it was), but Trump went into denial and rejected the information his own governmental agencies were telling him. So did most of you Trumpies, we saw the threads and posts you guys were putting out. They are a matter of record.

"when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that's a pretty good job we've done."
Donald Jackass Trump | Feb 28, 2020

If Trump had any competence about this, the issue would have bumped his approval rating up past 50 percent for the first time in all of his term. But he messed up big time.

Trump is dangerously incompetent and he flubbed it.

LOl wasn't YOU who stated in your last post that you are not so political yet now your yapping about liberals being dishonest or putting aside politics. Your true colors are showing.
You cannot deny that Trump deliberately ignored his own experts & said things HE BELIEVED & then walked them back or lied and said he never stated that.
My position is had he acted presidential instead of a reality star host maybe things wouldn't have gotten as bad as they did & that has nothing to do with putting aside politics because I don't care if Trump had an R or a D next to his name so spare us.
