I am just trying to point out, taking the emotion out of it, that President Trump was not the second coming of (insert whoever you believe in) during his first term and won't be in his second term if he is elected.
There is a tendency for those on the right side who have TDS to wear rose glasses when it comes to looking at his term in total. Maybe because President Biden is doing so poorly. LOL
President Trump is a very good cheerleader if he is saying the things that "align" with (generic) you thinking. He is able to make (generic) you feel better, even if the "quantitative" numbers say things are the same as the previous (or current) administration.
- Avg. Border crossing actually INCREASED from President Obama to President Trump
- Manufacturing jobs is HIGHER now than at any point in President Trumps term
- money supply was quadrupled during President Trump term. I think that any economist, no matter which side they follow, will tell you that 4x the money supply = eventually higher inflation
- average return of US stock market (SP500, Dow Jones, etc) was higher under President Obama vs President Trump after four years. On a % basis, President Biden = President Trump right now on the stock market
- this is more "qualitative" but I think that Republics have underperformed expectations since 2018, the first major election that President Trump had control of the party. Same in 2020 and 2022. Some of that has to fall to leadership.
- through the end of June 2024, President Biden has appointed 201 federal judges. President Trump appointed 200 at the same point of his presidents term.
etc.

We're all very glad you are here to point that out as I'm sure this particular insight has never been shared before.
