Gaslighting everywhere. Trump supported every bloated budget funding the deep state. Mere rhetoric. The classic example was the numerous druggies and celebrities he pardoned and left out Assange, perhaps one of the biggest people exposing the deep state out there.

That’s very true, and it’s something that shouldn’t be ignored or simply explained away. After all, he held a veto pen for four years. Trump never worried much about deficits, and that bothers me.
But except for Rand Paul, no one in DC worries about deficits. So Trump was certainly not unique in that regard.

Which POTUS was as successful as Trump? Look at what Trump accomplished:
- Gas price per gallon was about $2.30;
- Inflation 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-shape 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 the jobs due to well executed tax treatments;
- Peace in the Middle East aka Abraham Accords; US Embassy moved to Jerusalem; and Iran was isolated.
- 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.
Who the heck can accomplish the above in four years while being impeached twice and investigated by Obama's Weaponized Agencies?
