My first two articles in this series have provided information about the accomplishments of Donald Trump’s administration in eight different areas. It is an impressive list, and I shall add to it here. We do have to understand, of course, that much of this is WHY the Left hates Trump. Their anti-capitalistic, pro-China, pro-socialism, hate America, and green agenda were all threatened—especially by the success of what Trump did. So, they had to remove him from power. And they succeeded in doing so—thus far.
It is highly doubtful most American people truly know what Mr. Trump accomplished; the mainstream media certainly never told them. We all need to share this information with as many people as possible.
9. The southern border
- Built over 400 miles of the world’s most robust and advanced border wall.
- Illegal crossings plummeted by over 87 percent where the wall has been constructed.
- Deployed nearly 5,000 troops to the Southern border. In addition, Mexico deployed tens of thousands of its soldiers and national guardsmen to secure their side of the US-Mexico border.
- Ended the dangerous practice of Catch-and-Release, which means that instead of aliens getting released into the United States pending future hearings never to be seen again, they are detained pending removal, and then ultimately returned to their home countries.
- Entered into three historic asylum cooperation agreements with Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala to stop asylum fraud and resettle illegal migrants in third-party nations pending their asylum applications.
- Entered into a historic partnership with Mexico, referred to as the “Migrant Protection Protocols,” to safely return asylum-seekers to Mexico while awaiting hearings in the United States.Of course, Joe Biden has destroyed this; America no longer has a southern border, and even some Democrats have complained about it. If it hadn’t been for Mitch McConnell and the Washington Establishment, there is no doubt there would be a wall across the entire expanse of the American-Mexican border now. Not that it would matter. Biden would have torn it down. This may be the area where we miss Trump the most. Biden is diluting America into non-recognizability.
10. NATO, foreign affairs, and the military
- Secured a $400 billion increase in defense spending from NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) allies by 2024, and the number of members meeting their minimum obligations more than doubled.
- Credited by Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg for strengthening NATO.
- Worked to reform and streamline the United Nations (UN) and reduced spending by $1.3 billion.
- Allies, including Japan and the Republic of Korea, committed to increasing burden-sharing.
- Protected our Second Amendment rights by announcing the United States will never ratify the UN Arms Trade Treaty.
- Withdrew from the horrible, one-sided Iran Nuclear Deal and imposed crippling sanctions on the Iranian Regime.
- Brokered historic peace agreements between Israel and Arab-Muslim countries, including the United Arab Emirates, the Kingdom of Bahrain, and Sudan.
- Completely rebuilt the United States military with over $2.2 trillion in defense spending, including $738 billion for 2020.
- Secured three pay raises for our service members and their families, including the largest raise in a decade.
This is a partial list, of course, which must be limited due to space. There are many other items to be added here (e.g., Israel and more Middle Eastern accomplishments), and you can read about them at the website given below.
11. Education
- The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act expanded School Choice, allowing parents to use up to $10,000 from 529 education savings account to cover K-12 tuition costs at the public, private, or religious school of their choice.
- Launched a new pro-American lesson plan for students called the 1776 Commission to promote patriotic education.
- Prohibited the teaching of Critical Race Theory in the Federal government.
There was much more to be done here as well, as is obvious to every sane American, but these accomplishments are notable.
These three articles have given only a cursory survey of Mr. Trump’s accomplishments while in office. As noted, most Americans don’t know about them because they were never reported by the Democratic Party’s press. We only heard about his mean tweets, racism, etc. That is the battle we continue to face—getting the positive message out, despite the opposition faced in the “mainstream media.” It is one of the greatest challenges in front of us in saving our country.
None of this information will matter, in the least, to the depraved Leftists. They hate Trump and, pardon the pun, that trumps everything. Evidence and benefitting the American people mean absolutely nothing to them. But we can hope that not every liberal is a closed-minded, hate-filled, evil wretch. Maybe, if we can disseminate this information, we can truly help some people.
If you wish the complete list, go to the website “Trump Administration Accomplishments”. If you want to copy and paste them and print them out, they will come to many pages, I assure you.
If Mr. Trump is elected in 2024, obviously he will have to undo a lot of damage that has been done by the Biden administration. He will also have to constantly fight the Left which will, again, do everything possible to destroy him in its relentless pursuit to destroy America. It is amazing, given what he had to go through in his term in office, that Mr. Trump was able to accomplish anything at all.
Can he return to Washington and “Make America Great Again”? That is in the hands of the American people. Provided, of course, there is an America after two more years of Joe Biden.
Don’t miss out on some good American reading from the good ol’ days. My western novels, Whitewater and River Bend are available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Eliva.com. A third western, Allie’s Dilemma, is available for Kindle only. And read some different posts on my blog at thailandlewis.blogspot.com.

Trump is a good man and was a great president. He’s actually one of my personal idols, and has been most of my life as I grew up not even 20 miles from him.
I’ve been to his home in Mara Lago 3 times for dinner. I got talk to him once.
All that being said, The Donald has to re-earn my vote. Not sure if I want him - as an octagenerian - in these times over someone like DeSantis in 2024.
Time will tell.

That was then. What is he proposing to do if he is elected again?? Trump needs to spell out some specific steps he will be proposing to Congress. Not just pie in the sky...”I’m gonna end/stop...(fill in the blank)”. Is that asking too much of a person who wants to be President?? Produce and broadcast a video that he lays out in detail his plan...no more of this generality stuff he does. That is not gonna get him elected this time around...in my opinion. Actual plans that might have a good chance of passing Congress.
No more EO’s that can be rescinded. We’ve seen how that worked out.

I agree.
Generalities are horrible.
Republicans do it all the time:
“Smaller government” [in what areas?]
“Lower taxes” [for who?]
I want specifics.
Exactly what do they plan to do?
Exactly how do they plan to do it?

President Trump’s accomplishments as POTUS are staggering.
You know this as well as I do.
I had more money in my pocket. Gas was cheap (compared to Odumbo and Gropin’ Joe); shelves were stocked to the brim; Walmart was open 24/7; good jobs a-plenty; etc. You remember.
President Trump brought us peace abroad and prosperity at home. It’s as simple and clear as that.
This country needs cleaning up.
The brain-dead pretender Biden is the worst president ever.
He is destroying what my father and your father fought for.
We need a man who can fix it and clean up the mess.
That man is President Trump.
