Popular Post Stargeezr Posted January 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2021 I just hope that the USA, the country can survive and get the corona virus under control. Maybe they will quit the big gatherings without masks. Maybe they will, go help the hospitals and medical places where way too many people are sick with the virus. Maybe they will put away their guns and take up shovels etc and try to repair some of the damage that was recently caused. Maybe they will collectively go after all the extremist groups that freely exist in the USA. I doubt that in the next 2 years there will be much of a change, but baby steps, baby steps. Trumps Legacy will be talked about for a long time it just will take a long while for the various processes to conclude and to happen. I am hopeful that, 2021 and 2022 be a very bad start for the future of The Donald. I will be watching. Geezer 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaan sailor Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Trump negotiated with Mexico and Central American governments to discourage the hordes of illegal immigrants from reaching the border. And for those that did—many were returned to their home countries. He also made good on his pledge to build a wall (450 miles). Notice now the hoards moving north from Honduras because they think the Biden administration will welcome them with open arms. 2 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start with lies from day one (number of people attending his inauguration), continue with bigger and bigger lies, attack ANYONE who disagrees, attack the media etc. Unfortunately Fox/OAN/Newsmax repeated his lies daily for over four years. Holding 45 accountable for his crimes from tax cheating to high treason MUST be done. If he isn't, then the next autocratic leadership wannabe (who will most CERTAINLY be smarter) will do the same thing and perhaps kill democracy. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted January 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2021 Let us face. Supporter or not, admit Trump was failure on nearly every level. And that he is a major loser. He loses, at nearly everything he touches. Let us examine that a bit. 17 of his businesses have failed in the past few decades. Some at huge losses. Trump Steaks, Trump Shuttle Airline ($120 million in losses between 1988 and 1990), GoTrump, Trump Vodka, Trump Mortgage, Trump University, Trump Ice, The New Jersey Generals, Tour de Trump, Trump Network, Trump Magazine, Trumped!. Many businesses that licensed his name went bankrupt, or went out of business. And he had between four and six major bankruptcies (depending on the source), including the Trump Taj Mahal (which he spent $1.2 billion building, and was $3 billion in debt within a year of opening), Trump's Castle, Trump Place Hotel (which was very successful prior to Trump buying it in 1988, and he managed to put it into $550 million in debt by 1992!), Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts ($1.8 billion in debt by 2004, bankrupt in 2009) , and Trump Entertainment Resorts. There are likely others. And this does not take into account the 3,600 lawsuits he was involved in as of the time he took office, the vast majority of which were filed by small contractors against his companies for non payment, or total default. Many of these contractors were crushed. It is part of his M.O. Nearly anything with his name on it, and his association with it, fails. And that will be even more so, after he loses the November 3rd election. His name will remain radioactive, the the rest of his life, and the mini empire will continue to dwindle. During the period from 1985 to 1989, three years of which were boom year in NY real estate, he somehow managed to lose $359 million. Between 1990 and 1991 he lost $517 million. And between 1992 and 1995 he again managed to lose $286 million. His base has been dwindling since the election. Alot of conservative friends and family I have been speaking with, agree Biden won, and the fraud thing is a bit much, and a sure sign of a sore loser. I think the DC fiasco backfired for sure, and he lost alot of his "middle of the road, sensible, hard working, decent people" base. In addition to nearly the entire GOP establishment, which he had wrapped around his finger. It was an enormous miscalculation, and an act of sheer desperation by an unhinged madman. Now, with the permanent ban on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, he is almost a 305lb. zero. Almost. I predict his influence will continue to wane, once he is ingloriously ushered out of the white house in humiliation. Corporate America is adding its weight in response to the insurgency at the Capitol building on January 6, and are pulling out from any association with the Trump brand after the storming of the capitol incidentwhich economists say will have a profound medium and long-term effect on his business interests. Recently, Signature Bank closed Trump’s personal accounts and the PGA of America stopped plans to hold its 2022 championship at Mr. Trump’s New Jersey golf course.Such a parting of ways signals the business community’s weariness in being associated with a political figure that has attracted worldwide attention and is indicative of what may happen to the Trump brand. The president’s role in the incident, confirmed by his impeachment by the House this week, has gained criticism from the Business Roundtable to the AFL-CIO labour federation. Michael D’Antonio, the author of a Trump biography, says the capitol incident has been a game-changer for the support of extreme politics. “Trump’s name is really an albatross. He is the most disgraced president in history. This is a person who’s synonymous with a mob attacking the US Capitol. I just think this went a step too far.” Other experts like Tim Calkins, a marketing professor at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management, say Trump’s brand will inevitably suffer long-term.“Before his term, Trump stood for wealth, success and over-the-top luxury. Now the brand has associations with anti-government views, racism and extremism. This makes the brand fairly toxic.” Trump is not man enough to accept the loss, and neither are these protestors, over a hundred congress members who joined that ridiculous lawsuit, and many millions of his supporters who are continuing to drink the Kool aid, insisting that Trump won, and that the election was rigged. If I could speak with Trump, what would I say? Man up. Grow up. Deal with it. You lost yet again. Plain and simple. You lost 17 businesses. You lost 19 merchandising deals while in office. You lost all your clout, when it comes to management deals with your name on them. You lost the trade war with China, and the negotiations with Kim. Now, you lost the election. You broke alliances with close allies, and you coddled despots and dictators. What part of you being a loser do you not understand? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What will come out as his mess is swept away is likely to shock on a scale almost unimaginable.

Let's never forget that Trump has not started any wars during his term- a huge achievement. Other than that, 3 conservative judges on SCOTUS has cemented his legacy for decades to come. In the future, after the mania has receded and calmer minds evaluate, Trump will be seen as a great president for all the great things he achieved in only 3 years ( the last year was basically lost to corona ) while being assailed on all sides for everything he did. The establishment, the woke left and the media were relentless in their attacks against him, and he was diverted by a Russian investigation ( which cost millions and did not remove him ) for too long ( he should have sacked Sessions the day he recused himself, but hindsight is brilliant ). Despite all the attacks, what he achieved was substantial and productive- I doubt a normal politician could have achieved half of it in 8 years. Were it not for corona I have no doubt he would be waiting to start his second term now. Trump was ( and still is ) a dominating presence, and I doubt he is going away any time soon. Any that thought his losing the election would be the end of Trump are going to be hugely disappointed. Never forget that Trump was not elected because of himself, but as a revolt against the Washington establishment, and that enormous mass of disaffected voters is not going away quietly. If Biden does not do something to satisfy the millions that voted against him, the anti establishment movement is only going to grow. If he doesn't get it right, in 2022 he's going to lose congress. The Democrat majority is very small, and will not take much to lose it. I doubt that Biden can withstand the hard left, and policies enacted will not endear the population to him ( just wait till he puts up taxes on the middle class ), but time ( and the 2022 election ) will tell. I doubt Trump will be convicted in the senate, and I hope he will be running again for POTUS in 2024. If he doesn't run, I expect him to be involved in primary selections, and a supremacy of Trump allied GOP candidates. Roll on 2022 and 2024 . Over some considerable time, many Trump hater posters have made some pretty outlandish claims about Trump in the final days eg he was going to start a military coup, that he was going to refuse to leave the White House, that Melania was going to divorce him, that he was going to start a nuclear war, that he was going to start a war to divert attention. None of those have eventuated . Yep old racist misognystic white people will miss him for sure. Trump allowed their opinions to become mainstream.

None of those have eventuated . Not my opinion but facts: He didn't start a new war. If that is an achievement in the USA, the country has very low standards. The last year was lost by corona because he failed miserably to do anything to curb it, he was actually stimulating to get it worse by his "no mask' policy. The Russia investigation made money as they took it from the guilty parties. It didn't remove him because the GOP had made their minds up before doing an actual trial and refused to call any witnesses. So what did he achieve actually? No wall, Mexicans didn't pay for it. Huge unemployment, 400 K people dead and rising quickly which was completely unnecessary if he took the pandemic seriously from the start. Racial division of the country. A coup attempt to become a dictator. Edited January 20, 2021 by FritsSikkink 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He dropped the ball big time after Covid-19 knocked on the door. Trump can only blaim himself for his loss and he should had left quietly, but instead he now has an impeachment to look forward to. Not the smartest move he made. His legacy. Well it's not the best is it, even if he actually managed to do some good things for many Americans, even democrats in his 3 first years. Let's hope for a peaceful I'm assuming that you're referring to the economy because I can't think of anything else significant that happened under Trump's watch that was good for Americans . Just because a president is in office when the economy is doing well that doesn't mean the economy is doing well because of that president. That goes for Democrats as well as Republicans. There's no evidence at all that is tax breaks actually benefited the economy. if you look at a graph showing GDP growth from the Obama era to the Trump era you'll see very little change. The best year of economic growth under Trump was 2018 and that was due to both the sugar high of the tax cuts and the massive increase in spending. In fact GDP growth went down from 2018 to 2019. So what good things do you believe Trump did? Edited January 20, 2021 by placeholder 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
