Was this before or after he enslaved white American youth to enforce anti-competitive trade practices for wealthy northern industrialists?

I had to double check the date.

President Trump torpedoed the future of the USA by failing to do this (suspend habeous corpus) during the riots in the Summer of 2020. He could have jailed the enemies of the USA indefinitely and saved the nation. Instead, Biden was elected and the destruction of the USA is now for all purposes assured. Its very discouraging. This, as well as his draconian covid lockdowns, will permanently stain Trumps presidency, despite his many other accomplishments. That’s why I don’t intend to support President Trump in a Republican Primary (I hope DeSantis is on the ballot), although I would vote for President Trump in a general election, assuming he is the GOP nominee.
