Seriously? You really want to go on record here, where your posts can be quoted and held forth for prosperity, making a case for Trump's moral character based on donating a jet to ferry a sick kid?

that post was clearly response to the post i quoted, where someone said trump doesn’t have an ethical bone in his body, or some such liberal nonsense.
i hate trump. can’t stand him. but the fact is, he’s done some good things, helped some people. that’s simply the truth. that truth scares some people because it undermines their political agenda. that’s not my problem.

trump wasn’t even wrong, Powell was one of the key architects of america’s worst foreign disaster since the vietnam war.
when george bush dies, people
won’t be shy about connecting him to the iraq war. and there’s nothing wrong with mentioning that connection, because it’s true.
TDS, boy. what else are they going to focus on? great jobs reports? low inflation? low crime? a secure border?

Jim echoing the rights mantra
Trump wasn’t wrong
FYI
Jim the borders haven’t changed
Jobs are fine just nobody wants the #^&#^&#^&#^& ones
Crime is crime still lower than decades ago
And inflationary trends are world wide
You left out the stock market is still breaking records
And unemployment is 4.5%
Here are some Trump stats from his term
The economy lost 2.9 million jobs.
The unemployment rate increased by 1.6 percentage points to 6.3%.
After-tax corporate profits went up, and the stock market set new records.
The international trade deficit Trump promised to reduce went up. The U.S. trade deficit in goods and services in 2020 was the highest since 2008 and increased 40.5% from 2016.
The number of people lacking health insurance rose by 3 million.
The federal debt held by the public went up, from $14.4 trillion to $21.6 trillion.
Home prices rose 27.5%,
Illegal immigration increased. Apprehensions at the Southwest border rose 14.7% last year compared with 2016.
Coal production declined 26.5%, and coal-mining jobs dropped by 16.7%. Carbon emissions from energy consumption dropped 11.5%.
Handgun production rose 12.5% last year compared with 2016, setting a new record.
The murder rate last year rose to the highest level since 1997.
Trump filled one-third of the Supreme Court, nearly 30% of the appellate court seats and a quarter of District Court seats.
Biden still got 3.4 years to go but we know how the Republicans plan obstructing anything. No matter how many Americans want it or will benefit from Dems legislation …
Republicans are even against national holiday to vote.. can’t have Americans voting in large numbers they don’t vote Republican

Let's stick with this.
Are you going to state here, that the situation at the border isn't different than it was a year ago? We don't have meaningfully more people crossing now? Is that what you're saying?
I'm trying to talk to you Wayne, you make it impossible when you say nonsense like that. "The border" itself, the physical border, hasn't changed, there hasn't been an earthquake that would change the border. But the situation at the border, has changed drastically. And no one gives a sh*t if you can't accept that. America sees it, which is why Biden's numbers are tanking (but Spence says he's actually doing well, so you can ignore that too).
"You left out the stock market is still breaking records"
True, and important to mention. But you would never discuss that when Trump was president.

what you see at the border is only new in your imagination Illegal immigration increased. Apprehensions at the Southwest border rose 14.7% last year compared with 2016.

And if you think by me saying the border hasn't changed is somehow about its physical appearance your making thing up again ... you must think apprehension equal admission into the the Country ? what laws Has Biden changes that Trump passed ? NONE executive orders are just that.. so what's Changed on our side NOTHING .. But clearly more are trying on the mexican side..
"You left out the stock market is still breaking records"

FYI 19 Republicans who voted in favor of the Infrastructure bill how many dems 50?
but thanks for focusing on the ONLY bill some Republicans voted on
how many Bill have they filibustered ... And republicans dare speak about the tyranny of the majority !
when it's more like GOP's tyranny of the minority
here's an example A Fox News poll released last week found that 67 percent of voters support requiring teachers and students to wear masks in schools. Even in the “reddish” state of Florida,
Gov. Ron DeSantis don’t appear to care what the majority of voters want; instead, many are singularly concerned with what keeps the GOP base happy.
The GOP is giving us a master class in the tyranny of the minority. Republicans across the nation are enacting polices on issues from Covid safeguards to restrictions on abortion and voting rights that are opposed by a solid majority of Americans — but are supported by the much smaller GOP base.
that's the real threat to America

Except the Republicans voted for the 1.5 trillion dollar infastructure bill. America wants that, and the Republicans voted for it.
But your side stalled it, tying it to a 3.5 trillion package.
So who is obstructing? Please, please explain how the GOP killed the infastructure bill which a majority of Americans actually want? And which the republicans voted for?
Republicans are ba-a-a-a-a-a-d. Keep bleating it Wayne, Republicans are b-a-a-a-a-a-d.

Maybe you should tell his supporters he isn’t president.. seeing you’re not one to pay attention to what is actually going on in the. World . unless it’s grammatically incorrect .
