You could say that, if you didn't know the full story of how I strongly supported Trump for many years. I made a special trip to the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City when it first opened, and had followed him ever since. I strongly supported him as the nominee, and went from listening to Mark Levin and Rush Limbaugh every day, to turning them off forever after they spoke poorly of him at that time. I followed his every move while he was President, and supported him constantly here on FR, even creating new threads for some of his rallies or teleconferences.
So I rode on his back, hard, until the wheels started coming off in 2020. The lockdowns, the free rent, over a cold virus, all horrible. I thought J6 was a terrible end to his Presidency, and something that would dog him forever. I'm not the only Freeper who felt that way, we lost one of our best posters SkyPilot that day. It started dawning on me, that Trump was causing just as much damage, as he was doing good.
So while he's obviously been unfairly targeted by the leftist gestapo, he's not 100% the victim. His 2016 campaign promises have not aged well. Did not lock her up. Did not build a wall, much less make Mexico pay for it. Did not balance the budget or debt. And most importantly, did not drain the swamp. In fact, he augmented it with many of his picks.
You can try to blame others for Trump's picks, but that is another failed campaign promise, that HE would pick the very best, replacing those idiots currently in government, himself, he constantly said. He also said we'd get tired of winning, but we don't hear that one much anymore either.
He's wreaked so much havoc that he's got a lot more people after him than ever. I hate that, and hope he is able to escape any unfair prosecutions, but some of the things he did brought this on himself. You don't call for "a rally" during the electoral college vote, and hide classified documents when you receive a subpoena, and think you can then just call for more riots to make it go away.
So Trump has become an Albatros, unfortunately. He's so incredibly polarizing he'll never be elected, or able to govern again, I don't think. Others obviously feel differently. We just need to be careful he doesn't lead us any further over the ledge than he already has, since it's so far been proven his tactics aren't working. Thanks.
“Did not lock her up. Did not build a wall, much less make Mexico pay for it. ”
It could not be more obvious that from the moment she was sworn in and he had no control over the DOJ. After he fired told me he was pointedly and publicly told by Republicans that if he tried any further activity like that he would be impeached and removed. The worst kind of lie. He did everything but go down there with bricks and a trowel and build it himself. The republican party fought him at every turn. Then he used discretionary DOD funding and they fought him to stop that. Then when they succeed and porting him, the crow that he didn’t get it done. And utterly disingenuous lie. Typical GOP BS.
