I assume that in the little Podunk in which you live, you wouldn’t have a clue as to Trump’s business success. As a NYer, I can tell you not only is he a spectacular business man (do you know what the west side highway looks like these days??) he has been a cheerleading voice for being tough on crime for over 40 years. I still admire his outrage over the Central Park jogging case and his generosity to the victim.
And he did not conflate China with the new trade deal. You need to listen more closely.
Apparently you hold that NY is better than where most of us live - in “flyover” land - but do not fool yourself into thinking that you are superior to, or smarter than us; the fact that you often bring up your geographic location near Trump as some sort of stick to poke non-Trumpsters is so, so like Trump (arrogant, juvenile nonsense).
