If you are poor it won't affect you.
If you are stupid, you have no problem giving the inept and incompetent morons in D.C. your money because you trust daddy.

And for not making his DOJ arrest Hillary Clinton. She knowingly and willingly gave classified information to persons who did not possess the needed clearance to view the information.
Comey admitted that there were classified information on her (also illegal) bathroom server. Hillary gave the server data to her attorneys for them to remove the "yoga and Chelseas wedding plans from".
Bitch should have gone to jail. If nobody is held responsible for their actions then nobody will follow the law. This one act would have made many people not cross the line into illegality.

he was and still is, far too trusting of people and willing to overlook their faults and give them a chance. that can and often does work in running a business, but it never works in politics.
trump biggest mistake was approaching the job of POTUS with a business mindset and not understanding that deep down people, despite what they said, were not about to put this country first and they were very happy to set this country on fire for political gain.
i think trump truly believed deep down that republicans, rinos, and dimrats played political games but he thought that deep down, they wanted to and would put this country first above political games and corruption.
i think trump himself would admit today his biggest disappointments were his SCOTUS picks. kavanagh and ACB are nothing but cucked gapping vaginas willing to burn the constitution rather then upset the dimrats power grabs

It is an anonymous message board and I am not the President of the United States.
I know you are limited in your intelligence but most posters understand these distinctions.

In hindsight, some of Trump's appointees were far from ideal, and again, in hindsight he should have weeded a number of people out of various positions to begin with, but I also think too many of us out here aren't cognizant enough about the realities on the ground in those situations, i.e. it's not nearly as straightforward and simple as it seems from afar.

Jeez Dan, I hope all that epic copy and pasting helped your hurt butt feel better. I’ll make sure to keep your hurt butt in my prayers tonight. Still shocks me that someone with so many accomplishments could have lost, just a real tragedy, huh. I mean just this:
“Released the first-ever Strategy on Women, Peace, and Security, which focused on increasing women’s participation to prevent and resolve conflicts.”
Should really have won the entire thing for him, hands-down. And even:
“Removed unnecessary regulations that restrict the seafood industry and impede job creation.”
I mean gosh he really saved this country, didn’t he. Poor Trump, just couldn’t get a fair shake.

Trumps biggest problems are sociopathic ego and morally rudderless like his own mother said.
Best is he deregulated all the red tape Obama put in place
Wasted time on coal but ok it plays to his basest base

I think leaning on the Republican establishment for administration personnel and judicial appointment guidance was his greatest mistake. He would surrounded by swampers and some of his judicial appointments look more like moderate, liberal filth.
Tweets hurt him with the suburban Karen’s.
In hindsight, he should have just sought to do everything within his legal powers and not try to work with the opposition or RINO’s. I understand that is easier said than done.

List some of biden's.
I listed 100s for Trump. You picked out two that you deemed lesser accomplishments, which still helped people out.
Let's compare.
edit
Actually don't. I don't really care about what you have to say.

You can portray anyone in any way in the media.

Don't be fooled by Trump. He was always one of them. Look at his handling of the virus, his cabinet and his Supreme Court picks. He's an actor and he did his job very well.
