Trump Administration Accomplishments | The White House

Warp Speed.

I cannot see any entrenched politician bucking the system and getting a vaccine stabbed into peoples arms in less than a year. I am simply amazed he got the bureaucrats to get off their butts and make allow this happen. Of course the inept governors are mucking up the last step, but at least they shut down their state economies.

He showed tariffs are not the binary, end-of-world evil the WSJ, US Chamber of Commerce, Wall Street Banks, and countless right-wing think tanks have been telling us they are for the last 25 years.

For 4 years, American policy regarded China as the enemy they actually are.

Now, the media and government are invoking the language of plutocracy, and calling China a "partner" again.

American government has been on the wrong end of the China issue for a quarter-century. Trump reversed that for a brief period of time. I think history will show him to have been prescient on this.

Why would anyone need to? The list speaks for itself.

You still seem unable to differentiate between people who like Trump as a person and people who appreciate what he has done while in office. I don't care for him as a person but I'd invite him to dinner long before I'd let the bumbling pedophile anywhere near my family.

I'd like to be a guy that can separate the person from the office.

And I'd like to know what INGO thinks his legacy is.

I read part of the list - a lot of "the economy is great!", which isn't necessarily the President's doing.


Operation Warp Speed - It's ironic that Trump supporters have the feeling that it was too fast and not thoroughly tested. Couple that with the "it'll blow over" and the bleach & UV speech, and his handling of the pandemic won't be on the positive column in the history books.


And Twangbanger is right, The tariffs really haven't been as terrible as I would have thought. It does make everything more expensive than it should be... Who got helped and who got hurt? I don't know. There's a lot of manufacturers that had their material prices spike.


I'd list rollback of Obamacare as a positive.
Perhaps the change in taxes, but that made the 1040 bigger instead of smaller for a lot of folks.

No president ever receives undisputed credit for the economy. If it's going well it's always because of the previous administrations (according to some), same if it's bad (according to others). I don't agree with everything the man has done but from my perspective it's been nice to relax a bit and stop worrying that the sitting POTUS could care less if this country sinks and is actually not taking steps to accelerate the process.

I would vote for a groundhog to make political decisions the way Punxsutawney Phil does before ever casting a vote for a party which has every intention of changing everything that made this country great. We're at that point where the Socialists no longer really feel the need to masquerade and their intentions are pretty clear. I will not live under their rules so it's pretty much now or never as far as I'm concerned.

The left has very cleverly been attacking everything this country has stood for since it's inception and as long as people are willing to look at every "issue" in a vacuum and allow emotions to rule over logic they aren't going anywhere anytime soon. I'm tired of listening to their BS and damned sure tired of their policies. I am far from alone in this thinking.

We don't need these Mickey Mouse Moth**************** dictating how we live our lives and "protecting" us from things like mean words. When it all falls apart I wonder how hungry some will have to get before they are blessed with the clarity of truth.

I'm sure.
