I don't think Trump is perfect, but I do think he did a good job
At what? Spending?
and has been politically persecuted since he decided to run in 2016.
Because he is and has always been a con artist, salesman and an entertainer.. He should've ran under the democrat banner because that's what he is.
The GOP would've hated and attacked him, but they're weak AF.
I guarantee you that if Trump had ran and won as a democrat, and did the same exact things as he's done, there'd no absolutely no republican voter who would be supporting him now.
Ron Paul had better policy, but was unequipped to deal with the rabid attack dogs of the left.
I'm not even going to speculate as to what a RP presidency would've looked like. Except for a couple hundred vetoes he would've issued and the amount of soldiers that would've been brought home.
Oh and a Fed chairman that truly understood inflation, what causes it and how to prevent it. We would've had a fed chairman that would've told the government to go pound sand the very first time they tried to increase the debt ceiling.
Trump kills in that category.
You're joking, right? Because Trump got dog piled in that category. 2 indictments (impeachments) before he even left office. And over 2 things that were at best half truths.
That's not winning. That's getting your skull thumped and still selling it as a good thing.
And all with Trumps own people in leadership positions. AG, FBI director etc etc etc
Do I wish he had done better with spending? Yes.
Do I disagree with him saying "the government can provide great healthcare"? Yes.
Of the current viable candidates, he's the best option.
Vivek is a strong 2nd place.
Instead of tearing down and insulting those who you seem to mostly agree with, why not tell us the viable candidate you support?
DeSantis still has my support, but just barely. I like his drama free, no nonsense military attitude. But I don't like his congressional voting record. So I support him. But that support is extremely limited at this point.
If it comes down to Trump vs Biden, do you have a preference?
I prefer neither. It's as simple as that. I stopped settling for the lesser of two evils after finding Ron Paul. He actually cured my apathy. I had no idea there were still fiscal conservatives left in DC until he showed up. Since RP, we've gotten people like Chip Roy, Massie, Amash, Lee and a few others. Not enough others to make a huge difference. But enough to piss Trump, Biden, McCarthy and Pelosi off.
