My liberal dad just sent me the following text:
“Without any emotions give me your view on Trump today. It's to have an idea of his standing today”
IS THERE A QUICK LIST OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS THAT I MAY QUICKLY SEND HIM BACK? I need to be thorough.
Thank you, Freepers, and a Happy New Year to all! 🎉

An end to federal efforts to punish white men for being born white.
Let us know the results of your attempt.
Happy New Year Silvie!
The President forced major reduction in censorship on many key Internet platforms.
Major reduction in taxes for most Social Security recipients.
IMHO, the time for takking politics with leftists has come and gone. They will never get it. TDS is an actual mental disorder. Trump could call the sky blue and they’ll call him a liar.
Make sure your dad understands that the federal budget goes from October to October. Trump came into office in January. So Trump had some, but little influence on the economy. It will be more Trumps economy, going forward.
—An end to subsidies for electric vehicles
—Freeing up federal lands for energy and mineral production
He closed the border.
He got 2.5 million illegal aliens out of the country.
He got the war in Gaza ended.
He got oil production to an all time high and gas prices down to less than $3 at the pump.
He successfully renegotiated several trade deals in America’s favor.
He’s gotten trillions invested in the US to rebuild the manufacturing base.
He rooted out a lot of corruption (USAID and the Dept of Education) and got rid of a lot of bureaucrats.
He instantly solved the recruiting crisis for the military (ie White Men started volunteering to serve again)

Ask any “liberal”: “Tell me everything you know. I’ve got a minute.”
With the resumption of Tariffs, President Trump accomplished the largest tax increase in American History. Unlike the regrissive income tax that has been amended into inefectivenesws, the tariff taxes effect all citizens.
The Presidentially imposed tariffs accomplish what the congress could not do. The Congress doesn’t oppose the tariffs on a grand scale.
Anyone who can’t see the good Trump has done thus far is not at all objective and isn’t worth talking to in the matter.
