@pamlatham2762 My user name is the name of a song by the Band, who you're probably redneck enough to have never heard of.
Now tell me what was so great about the country under Trump. And just to save you some time:
If you mention open borders and immigration, 2021 was a record year for border arrests and detentions.
If you mention fentanyl and drugs coming over the border, plenty of that was happening under Trump.
If you mention inflation, it's global, affecting every country in the world, and wasn't caused by Democrats or Biden. That includes gas and food prices. The US is not immune to factors that affect the entire world.
If you mention crime, violent crime increased under Trump, and increases under every president. Name the last president it didn't increase under.
I hope you mention the economy and Trump's "record" low unemployment. Unemployment only had to drop 1.2% from where Obama left it, at 4.7, to hit "Trump's" record. Biden has cut unemployment over twice what trump did in less than two years in office. Trump never achieved 3% GDP, while it reached 5.5% last year. Trump didn;t bring back jobs from overseas as he promised. In fact, MORE jobs left for overseas while he was president.
Mention foreign policy, and I'll point out Trump's golf playing turn the other way attitude toward foreign policy, where he abandoned Syria to Assad and Russia made a deal with the taliban that gave them everything they wanted to take over the country before Biden ever took office, and declared that North Korea was "no longer a nuclear threat" after which NK's nuclear arsenal got bigger than ever.
Trump insulted and alienated our allies around the world while isolating the US as a foreign power.
Mention "his" creation of the vaccine, and I'll remind you that the most widely used vaccine, Pfizer, was developed without any US funding or involvement, he left the national stockpile unreplenished, downplayed covid, said it would go away without a vaccine, and said 15 cases would go to zero in a couple days. Biden tripled the vaccination rate that Trump "achieved".
Now tell me what was so great under Trump.
