Ah yes, all the qualifications we want in a president. What a spirited defense of dear leader.
Well let's see, no new wars and a better economy.
Seems like we need to start electing idiot crazy people to achieve this kind of success.
Who knew?
Better economy? 2.2% in 2017 and 2.9% in 2018...and Trump promised 4% GDP growth.
The Strange Ups and Downs of the U.S. Economy Since 1929
And the current Atlanta Fed estimate of Q1 GDP growth is lousy - 0.4%.

- The DOW was down for the year in 2018 for the first time since the end of the Great Recession. Nothing to brag about there.
- Trump is currently running over $900 billion for current FY deficit...which is pathetic. And his budget is calling for over a $900 billion deficit for the next FY...in a best case scenario. Which is again pathetic.

- Trump promise 'America First'...but actually increased the numbers of troops in Afghanistan.
- promised a huge infrastructure program...nope.
- promised an Obamacare replacement...nope.
- and forget bragging about the unemployment rate as Trump rightly called that - during the campaign - a 'hoax'.
Donald Trump Calls Unemployment Rate One of the "Biggest Hoaxes in Politics"
- the LARGEST goods trade deficit in HISTORY.
The U.S. Now Has the Largest Trade Deficit In the History of the Country
Soooo more US involvement overseas, an economy stuck under 3% real GDP growth, a stagnating stock market (it is lower now then it was last August), a GIANT budget deficit (an idiot can spend more then he brings in), a record BAD goods trade deficit...oh, and no wall.
Yeah...he is friggin' brilliant.
