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! 🎉

Absolutely he needs to do this on his own.
Telling a liberal anything good about PDJT will only get you an Alinsky type of response. He’s just looking for something to attack you with.
Sealed the border in weeks, something the Establishment allowed to happen and lied they could not do anything about unless congress passed new laws.
That, and that alone, is more of an accomplishment than the last administration in total. It Trump does NOTHING else beyond that, that alone deserves him the White House.
Well.. it’s 2:44 so if he’s still waiting you failed miserably.
Hasn’t a lot changed, just since Jan. 20?
A lot has been hindered in his plans, but it still goes forward.
I completely agree with you.
Stopped DEI
Modernizing FAA
Raised the standard 4 hiring qualified Air Controllers.
Hiring and training more Air Controllers
Some liberals say our bombing, those drug boats is a violation of international law. In their view, there is no proof that these are drug gangs smuggling drugs to our country. ,
Those with that viewpoint seem to get hung up about those boats being in international waters when we attack
#TDS is real and had many adverse real world consequences.
Regular gas in Midland, Texas 2.19. Somebody wake Joe Hiden and tell him the bad news.
Trump’s accomplishment
Everything he did and is doing MAGA
He has exposed to the world how corrupt the institutions are that are running the US.
sealed the border
stopped student loan forgiveness
Big Beautiful Bill passage
Pardoned J6 protestors
Got inflation back under control
brought the price of eggs back down
made other NATO countries start paying their own way
cracked down on many cities crime problem
started prosecuting those who politicized justice under Biden
Investigated waste fraud and abuse
And I could go on and on
Just Grok it and then craft it so it won’t be rejected by your father.

The purpose of this thread is to list the President’s accomplishments.
Your views on tariffs (which I did not discuss in any of my posts) are hilariously irrelevant.
My favorite sources for general information.
Below is a question for Grok and the answer:
What are Trump’s most significant accomplishments in his current term that benefit American citizens?
Economic Growth and Job Creation
In the first half of 2025, the U.S. economy added 687,000 private sector jobs, with real capital spending increasing by 15% annualized, marking the strongest two-quarter growth since 2018. These developments have boosted employment opportunities and business investments, directly benefiting American workers and families through higher wages and economic stability.home.treasury.gov
Border Security and Immigration Reforms
President Trump restored travel restrictions from his first term in June 2025, updating them based on current global threats to enhance national security. Additionally, under his administration, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) hiring increased by 42.5% on average monthly since January 2025, leading to historic enforcement efforts. An executive order in March 2025 addressed the flow of illicit drugs across the northern border by adjusting duties, aiming to reduce drug trafficking and protect communities from opioid and other substance crises. These measures have contributed to safer borders and reduced illegal entries, benefiting citizens by curbing crime and public health risks associated with smuggling.

Fiscal Responsibility and Government Efficiency
Congress passed a historic rescissions package under Trump’s leadership, saving taxpayers $9 billion by cutting wasteful and politically motivated funding. Furthermore, a presidential memorandum focused on updating permitting technology for the 21st century, streamlining processes for infrastructure and energy projects to reduce bureaucratic delays. This has facilitated faster development of critical projects, lowering costs and improving efficiency for businesses and consumers.

Health and Wellness Initiatives
Through the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the administration launched the Presidential Commission to Make America Healthy Again, phased out petroleum-based dyes from food supplies, took action on the autism epidemic, and overhauled FDA’s “Generally Recognized as Safe” (GRAS) process. These steps aim to improve public health by reducing exposure to harmful additives and addressing chronic conditions, benefiting families with safer food and better healthcare oversight.hhs.gov
Overall Legislative and Executive Productivity
By mid-2025, Trump’s second term was noted as the most successful in legislative achievements since Franklin D. Roosevelt, according to AI analysis, with 225 executive orders signed throughout the year. This high level of activity has driven rapid policy implementation across multiple sectors, providing broad benefits like enhanced security, economic vitality, and regulatory reforms for American citizens.
Agreed on your general point—but the OP asked the question so it is reasonable to answer it with details.
The way I deal with leftist relatives—since I agree with your view—is I do not offer details.
I let them talk and find specific points they made which contradict other points—and make sure they know there is a contradiction.
Examples:
—They love unions and love illegal immigration which undercuts wages.
—They love Muslims and love “women power” even though Muslims treat women as second class citizens.
—They think “race does not matter” and then favor programs which benefit specific racial groups.
etc etc etc.
Did you inform of his greatest accomplishment[s]. He kept both Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris out of the White House.
Did you say that correctly?
Trump accomplishments starting with Trump 1.0.
