    If that's all you know about the Trump presidency then you probably shouldn't be voting.

    I promise you I am very informed on all three major candidates and issues of this country. Seemed like a broad statement I made to open peoples thoughts, but intelligent thought is not always a strong suit of many on here.

    People seek power. There will always be a Supreme Court Justice who gets to be the decider of opinions. Power!

    this is called blind allegiance

    (now you can start in on appointees to the court? immigration? economy?)

    he is still a brat.

    Nope, it's very thoughtful but I don't have the energy to try to explain to you especially with your track record.

    the alternative was Hillary Rodham Clinton.

    I will take a brat over THAT anyday and twice on sundays.

    Biden would be the third Barry Obama term. no thank you. I will not hold my nose and will vote for Trump.

    Here's a good one that President Trump gets zero credit for...

    By Matt Zapotosky
    July 19, 2019 at 12:37 p.m. EDT

    Justice Department officials on Friday announced that 3,100 inmates are being released from federal prisons across the country because of a change in how their good-behavior time is calculated — a significant step, they said, in the implementation of a new criminal justice reform law.

    The announcement came at a news conference to discuss the Trump administration’s progress on putting into place the First Step Act, a criminal justice bill President Trump signed into law in December.

    Age is not important or how they act. Their platform and what they can enact is the only thing important to me. Wall St likes Trump, I liked my taxes lowered, I approve of tariffs, I want conservative judges. If Trump dies I think Pence can lead. Few things could be political worse for my kids than a Biden/Abram win.

    i think we can all agree that Trump is better than Biden. The original post should still hit home with most I would think.. But as mentioned above there is a fair amount of blind allegiance just because it's Trump. Shouldn't be too hard to find someone with some tact that actually acts presidential to lead the country but apparently that unicorn doesn't exist.

    I'd like Dan Crenshaw to run at some point.

    I believe someone will step up in 2024. There is a good group of younger conservatives out there. Tim Scott, Dan Crenshaw, Matt Gaetz, even Nikki Haley. I know we may not all agree with their 'politics' but if you are looking for 'elect-ability' I see some good candidates out there for 2024. Lots of opportunity to show that conservatives aren't just old white dudes.

    Yeah, no crap. If you even have to question whether Trump is a good President, then you're special. I don't give 2 cents about his ego or his morals.. the man can run a country! Look at the economy and stock market before this epidemic, ah hell it's no use to talk logic.. I'm convinced that some people complain just to hear themselves talk or (type) in this case.

    You can't judge blind allegiance because Trump has and is doing the job better than anyone else could. The allegiance is completely justified especially in light of the nearly 100% effort from everyone else in government to keep him from doing a good job. If President Trump acted like a Brat it's because the CIA, FBI, NSA and DOJ tried to frame him. If you doubt that President Trump is clean then simply look at the results of that attempted coup. It wasn't a coup aim at President Trump, though. It was a coup aimed directly and me and everyone else that purposefully voted for the Trump Presidency.

    Tim Scott would be a phenomenal leader. He is brilliant, a great speaker, and has a great story to tell. I once had to follow him as a speaker. Didn't go well for me.

    To be clear I voted for him and will vote for him again. I thought he was a prick before he was elected and I think he's a prick now. The fact he tweets and apparently will not listen to his speech writer or will not read the teleprompter drives me batshit crazy. His overuse of the word "very" and "great" is akin to the younger crowd using the word "like" 15 times per sentence. He has also turned the economy around, strengthened our immigration laws, appointed conservative judges, generally kicked the left's ass which I'm thankful for. I still don't think it's too much to ask to have a decent human being which he's not, be our president.
