Donald J. Trump Posts From His Truth Social @TrumpDailyPosts

THE NEW FBI BUILDING SHOULD BE BUILT IN WASHINGTON, D.C., NOT MARYLAND, AND BE THE CENTERPIECE OF MY PLAN TO TOTALLY RENOVATE AND REBUILD OUR CAPITAL CITY INTO THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND SAFEST ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. THE FBI MUST BE IN WALKING DISTANCE TO THE DOJ BUILDING IN THAT THE DOJ & FBI HAVE TO WORK CLOSELY TOGETHER. A TWO MINUTE WALK TO A MEETING IS FAR BETTER THAN A TRAFFIC LADEN TWO HOUR DRIVE TO GREENBELT, MARYLAND. LIKEWISE, HAVING THE FBI IN D.C. IS IMPORTANT FOR ENDING VIOLENT CRIME, WHICH I WILL DO, QUICKLY!!!

Oh.. he means it. Our capitol city should be a showcase... we’ve been the dominant nation on the earth for nearly a century, we should have a capitol that makes us proud, not a run down slum filled with crime and decay. I know where he is coming from, just not agreeing on this route getting there.

Clueless in Mar-a-Lago...

Yep. Until recently, I had myself held out a smidgen of hope that this dumbbell, having apparently kicked his idiot son-and-law and silly daughter to the curb, had actually surrounded himself with better people and was getting more on point.

But apparently not. Not that it matters, though. We're well past the point in this country where the outcome of any given election is going to make a real difference in the long run.

The F.B.I. should have its HQ somewhere in the Center of the United States as far away from the politics of Washington D.C. as possible.

No. The FBI should be abolished entirely.

.. and the CIA... that was an agency whose original purpose was to prevent post-war Italy from going red.

Post-war Italy has finally gone red--as in "red state."

More likely than not. I just start laughing when the true blue members of the Orange Brigade try to explain away clear mistakes in judgment perpetrated by Trump. Examples would include the aforementioned Thoroughly Modern Milley.

Milley should have been fired ten seconds after he called his Chinese counterpart.

I'll never forget the half dozen Nuclear Surety Inspections I participated in Germany from 77-79. The Deputy CG of 32nd AADCOM attended the outbriefings of each inspection. Should that Nike Hercules battery fail (a rare event), he was there to relieve the Battery, Battalion, and Group Commanders on the spot.

The question that should bother you is, "what if Night Hides Not is smarter than Trump?" lol

I guess you don’t very well understand the opposition part of “controlled opposition”.

Oh please, dear smug elitist, you deserve this long response.

Despite all the criticisms of Trump's New York Style and his choices to head government agencies and cabinets, Trump was a success. Let's go down the Trump memory hole and review the Obama/Biden/Hillary impediments and Trump's successes.
To begin with there was the Hillary inspired Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax that was known to and thereby approved by the Obama/Biden Administration. Think about that, a previous POTUS purposely set out to obstruct an incoming administration. That has never happened in American history. This was unimaginable just 8 years ago.

Was Trump wrong March 2017, when he accused the Obama/Biden/Hillary Administration of spying on him? No, he was not. But who believed him? He was not being outrageous or narcissistic. Trump was accurate and told the truth. Don't forget Governor DeSantis was then Congressman DeSantis. What did Congressman DeSantis do about all that Hillary/Obama crap from 2012 thru 2018? FYI, DeSantis chaired the Subcommittee on National Security (Remember the illegal unsecured home server while she was Secretary of State?) and served on the Foreign Affairs (Hello Benghazi!) and Judiciary Committees (the deletion of 30,000 emails). To date DeSantis has not explained to Americans how he is going to decriminalize the out of control FBI, DOJ and DHS.

Then there were the two Impeachments 1 and 2 and finally the Special Prosecutor Investigation. Impeachment 2 - Trump gets impeached for one phone call with Zelenskyy while Biden's Crime Family made millions off of Ukraine's corrupt company Burisma. Simply unbelievable! Where is the accountability?

Despite the despicable, malicious, and bullying behavior by Obama, Biden and Hillary and the very anemic RINO response (then Speaker Ryan and then Majority Leader McConnell), which recent POTUS was as successful as Trump?

Here is a shortlist of Trump's accomplishments in the 4 years that were positives for the majority of if not ALL Americans:

The gas price per gallon was about $2.30 vs $3.80 under Biden (This is a cost increase of $30/20 gal refill for each American).
Inflation was about 1.4%, mortgage rates were half of what they are now.
Unemployment was low before Covid and before Blue Governors shut everything down and we were in the midst of a V-shaped recovery until January 22, 2021.
Tax decrease - tax laws promoted small businesses as well as large.
US enjoyed energy independence - No Green Agenda, no war on energy, No Paris Treaty.
No war in Ukraine, no threat of nuclear war, NATO paid its way.
China was quiet and we were winning the trade war.
US companies were bringing home well paying jobs due to well executed tax treatments.
There was peace in the Middle East, aka Abraham Accords; the US Embassy moved to Jerusalem; and Iran was isolated. Remember Trump's audacious assassination of Iran's Qassem Soleimani?

https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/trump-s-assassination-iran-s-qassem-soleimani-was-smart-thing-ncna1111586

How about Trump destroying Isis in just a matter on months?
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/heres-how-much-ground-isis-has-lost-since-trump-took-over

Trump handled Syria and Russia elegantly and successfully.
https://apnews.com/article/fee4d978f1ca42aaa891a59c5307a261

Trump got three non-left “I don't know what a woman is” Supreme Court Justices on the bench allowing Roe vs Wade to be overturned.

Trump had an excellent Economic Team and the US enjoyed a AAA+ rating that Biden's Team destroyed in 2+ years:

https://time.com/4440711/donald-trump-economic-advisors/

They were brilliant! And do not forget Wilbur Ross.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabinet_of_Donald_Trump

Funny how Russia was quiet during the Trump Administration. There was no Russian invasion of Ukraine until Biden took over. Why was that?

I hope you remember this:
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-nuclear-summit-obama-medvedev-idUSBRE82P0JI20120326

This was a very memorable and strategic event early into Trump's Administration:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/apr/12/trump-xi-jinping-chocolate-cake-syria-strikes

The above is why Putin behaved himself during the Trump Administration. Putin invaded the Ukraine under Biden just like he did under Obama when he claimed Crimea.

Who the heck can accomplish the above in four years while being impeached twice and investigated by the Obama/Biden Weaponized Agencies?

Trump received 11 million more votes in 2020 over 2016. Never has a sitting President lost when receiving more votes in his reelection bid. Trump increased his vote total by 17+%. Trump can claim victory in 17 of the 18 bellwether counties but still “lost” according to the Dems/MSM?

Do you really believe that Bumbling Biden received 15 million more votes than Hillary? That is an amazing and unbelievable 23% increase in votes for Bumbling Biden than Hillary. The election was blatantly in your face stolen.

Now the world is as close to WW3 as it has ever been and weak kneed spineless voters are still concerned with Trump's style versus his accomplishments.

Face it, Trump did one hell of a job! Compare Trump's job to that of Biden's. Attack Biden instead! People are suffering under Biden and all I witness are attacks on Trump.

IMO he was bought and paid for before 2016.

If that were true, the powers that be wouldn't have rigged the 2020 election and wouldn't be trying to imprison him.

I don’t think it’s sarcasm. If it were, he wouldn’t have tied it in with his plans for D.C. He’s looking for something to be remembered for ... turning the capitol into a showcase would do the trick.

I think the entire federal government should move to Kansas City. And Washington DC can become an idyllic Park full of old structures and statues and museums. Sure would make Northern Virginia a more pleasant location.

WTH? I thought he wanted to get rid of the FBI? Or is he seemingly appeasing them so they will leave him alone?

That’s interesting. I hadn’t even thought of it as ‘appeasement.’ I would guess that from his perspective he sees so many enemies that he feels he has to make some of them friends.

I think Trump should purchase Greenland and put the FBI there.

” I hope it’s smaller with fewer people after he fires more than a few.”

The agency needs to be downsized and return to its historical role of criminal investigation. If downsized, renovating the existing building should be more than sufficient.

Our nation is bankrupt with $31 trillion + in debt. The GSA reports the government has surplus office space in DC and other locations. There is zero financial justification for a new FBI office campus, costing billions, under the current situation. This is just another boondoggle to contractors who fund Congressional campaign coffers.
