He was having a COMPLETE fit last night as the votes came in, causing the reaction that we see today.
I know you're trying to be daft to portray us as overreacting, but this is no overreaction. Ya boy would eagerly disenfranchise any of us that didn't vote for him. You know it and I know it. He was saying the 2016 election was going to be rigged too - all the way up until he won it.
The fact that you don't care is exactly why we have to make sure a guy like this never gets into any office like this again. There's plenty of fascists out there willing to smile in your face. Character is the most important thing in any elected official, and that's much more clear now than it was four years ago. Luckily Trump's lack of character is so egregious his fascist leanings will not be indulged. We may not be so lucky next time, when we have a guy with Trump's autocratic tendencies that can hide them better.
In 2015 it was $2.52, which is lower than the gas price in all Trump years other than 2020. But yeah tell me about how he deserves credit for that again? The shale boom happened completely under Obama, who many of you would insist was the most oil unfriendly president ever. We had great years here in Texas when he was in office though.
Nice job manipulating the truth by using meaningless average prices. Prices vary greatly from region to region so taking a national average doesn't tell the real truth. The reality is under Obama, we had years of painful high gas prices. Under nearly the entire four years of Trump, I never fretted over gas prices and even saw it dip below $2 for the first time in 10 years

Just stopping flights to China was ridiculously ineffective as the virus was already well outside of China by then - actually having folks shelter in place early to stop the spread and give us time to manufacture masks and PPE was what many medical experts were saying do early in the game. Him stopping travel to China alone did little to nothing - most of our early cases came from Europe and the virus was already here anyway.
Laughable. Trump inherited an Ok economy that barely has a pulse and set record levels of employment and the stock market sourced to new heights. Trump created peace in the Middle East, got us out of the putrid Iran deal and directly took care of thugs like Soleimani and ISIS. I guess we cango back to the old days of Islamic terror attacks in the US since our enemies know we have a feeble weak old man as our leader for the next four years. They weren't so embolden under Trump.

Not worth it? You rather have a president that just kicks the can down the road? Trump took on our problems head on like prison reform, high drug prices, VA etc... But of course, the man could cure cancer and the haters would still complain about it. We have already seen what you get with Democrats in power. A big fat nothing burger. They spent the last four years not giving a rip about the American people instead choosing to waste our money in a relentless effort to take down the president.
That's the left has their head so far shoved up their arses they still use the Hitler line of BS....

The point is he may have done some good things, but he incited one of the greatest attacks on our nations history. Even Republicans are repudiating you Trumplicans.
