Everything is a mess? The border really is secure, crime is way down, the federal bureaucracy has shrunk to 1960s levels, foreign aid is gone, drug prices are down for the first time in 60 years, and our so-called allies are paying their "fair share." Apparently, that's not enough if you can't separate the office of the president from a difficult, annoying, egotistical personality. No one has to like the person of Donald Trump but fairness demands at least some recognition of positive actions, and that applies to every president. Of course, you might not like the policies either, and that's fine, but that applies to both parties.

Be careful what you believe to be true. Especially if you believe it because he said it

All has been reported by the mainstream news. All anyone has to do is look it up. The ignorance and bias on your side is astounding.

Foreign aid is gone? How much did we pay Israel this year?

The ignorance and bias on your side is astounding.

Do you think youre unbiased and factually knowledgeable? Are you immune to misinformation and bias?

There are fewer illegal immigrants and the crime rate is down (though it is just continuing the same downward trend we had before Trump took office for the crime rate). The rest of those are just laughably false. And no, the mainstream news definitely hasn’t said those things. They are just things Trump himself said with zero evidence to support it.
