« on: February 02, 2019, 10:24:35 AM »The economy is doing really well, unemployment continues to drop, and tax cuts have been passed. That's a very strong case for re-election. I'm not a fan of Trump's demeanor, nor his tweeting, but he's governed far more conservatively than I expected. In the end I think the left nominates someone who's far left and Trump wins. If the Democrats could actually nominate a moderate I think it would be a lot easier to beat Trump.
Personally, I would not trust Trump as far as I could throw him. And I have no illusion that he is doing good for the country because he cares about the country. Maybe he does and maybe he doesn't but I'm not assuming I know what his private feelings and motives are. But what is fact is that he is keeping his promises. Why he's keeping his campaign promises is his business. Maybe he just wants to make a strong legacy for himself. Maybe he genuinely believes low taxes result in a stronger economy. Maybe he is doing it all for his own personal glory and political power.
I suspect he actually enjoys making enemies and then beating them down, so maybe he is keeping his promises mostly because the Democrats don't want him to. I don't care why, I am just thrilled that he is. I got a great tax cut. Maybe he'll succeed in reducing the flood of illegals. He has rolled back so many regulations that is so good for the economy, and getting this country energy independent. Jobs are coming back. He has put China on notice that they can't walk all over us anymore. A good SC justice, nearly everything he's doing I am thrilled about. So he tweets like an ass so what? It's very refreshing to have a president tweet directly to us instead of the media filtering everything through a biased lens.
I thought Reagan would be my favorite president ever but I think it's going to end up being Trump. Reagan disappointed me with the illegal issue, and on several other things, although his heart was in the right place. Trump so far is doing everything I voted for him to do, and I've no idea where his heart is or if he even has one.
