This whole meme of trump being somehow interested in fighting sex trafficking is a right-wing invention. Oh wait, trump (who publicly boasted about his access to naked teen pageant contestants and who has demonstrated a clear predilection for sex workers and even married one) did wish his good friend & sex trafficker well.
Why do leftists hate President Trump so much that they are willing to attack significant progress against child traffickers

Maybe because they are the ones doing the trafficking?

According to the article he hasn’t made significant progress. He’s actually made it harder, which is why some non profit dedicated to the cause are boycotting him.

Sometimes Trump does do good things but since he’s also known for exaggerating, I never take anything on a White House website seriously unless it’s independently verified.

Many high-powered, extremely wealthy business families, politicians and celebrities are involved in child trafficking, and his administration has made many arrests over the past few years, and many more high profile ones are coming up in the next couple of months.

Human Trafficking arrests have skyrocketed under Trump, and 1/3 are trafficking children:

Trump gave $35 million to human trafficking victims:

This is an incredible effort his administration is under taking, and that easily makes the vote for Trump over Biden of more value.
That's wonderful but what is he doing about this virus. Our country is in a crisis.

Trump was also accused of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old, just one of at least 20 women who have accused him of rape and sexual assault.

No one is against fighting sex trafficking, but we should really have someone in office who isn't a walking contradiction to the stated goals. You don't hire a serial killer to tackle crime or the proverbial fox to guard the hen house.

He can fight tooth and nail to secure our porous border -- the biggest hot spot for human trafficking in the United States -- and the establishment D's and R's show their true colors. For their various selfish reasons, they want nothing to do with securing our borders. That fight continues. Trump got tough on China, a position that neither party wanted to do. He did a better job with the economy than any president I've ever seen because he cuts useless regulation -- the biggest thing strangling our economy. There's a long list of things he's done that I support. Child Trafficking is one of the biggest ones.
Another fake, reluctant Trump supporter who just happens to repeat the laundry list of conservative meme-based beliefs by heart.

If I actually asked what things he's gotten done that weren't, or how he fought China, I doubt you'd be able to give me any actual policies. It's just more platitudes. The kind of stuff my aunts share on Facebook.

Every administration had fought sex trafficking before Trump. It's a bipartisan issue. Giving Trump credit for bare minimum, especially given his own highly questionable history on the matter of child sex and rape, among others, is just more lowering the bar.

Exactly, he was involved with that mess, and don't forget his lust for his daughter Ivanka. Another Trump political ploy to steer people away from his evil antics.

Accused now means guilty - got it.

What did the past administrations do about Epstein or Maxwell? They knew. They had hard evidence. What did they do?
