And we haven't gotten into any new wars.
And we have significantly scaled back our existing wars in the Middle East.
And, whether its to his credit or not, health insurance prices have stopped spiking 10-20% per year.
And he's nominated two conservative justices to the Supreme Court.
And he moved the US embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.
And he just brokered a peace deal between Israel and the UAE
And tensions with North Korea have been de-escalated, even if that effort didn't go very far.
And he addressed funding imbalances in the UN
And my taxes went way down
And he's not a Democrat, so the media is actually critical of him, instead of fawning over how dreamy he is at every turn.
Immigration isn't a big issue for me, but I prefer his stance over open borders.
So I guess there's a random list that you may also tell me isn't actually a list.
Even _assuming_ everything is great, would it _really_ be his merit? I mean, everything that man did has been counter-productive for your country. He is a bumbling idiot. He really is. What merit does he have? I just can not see it. The fact that "well, we're not all dead yet" is hardly a criteria for success.
And no, my bad opinion of him is not because "the media" - my bad opinion stems from reading his book "The art of the deal" about a decade ago (that was highly recommended by friends - they said it's great!) - and in there he came off, to me, as a corrupt scumbag. All his behavior since only reinforced this.
It looks to me like the slow motion fall of an empire. And empires fall all the time, think about Great Britain, a bit over a hundred years ago they were the "the empire on which the sun never sets" - wonder if in another century people will look the same at the US.
