People sure live up to the opinion label with their letters.\u00a0Example: describing fascists in the most dreadful way and then saying that describes Donald exactly without citing a single action by him.\u00a0That is clearly an opinion.\u00a0<\/p>\n
How\u00a0about some facts!\u00a0<\/p>\n
Donald\u00a0spent decades as a\u00a0CEO building\u00a0a multi-billion-dollar real estate company.\u00a0 The White House needed a CEO that plans, recruits, makes assignments and very impressively stays on top of the assignments.\u00a0He very much resembles Abraham Lincoln who stayed on top of those who were tasked with his bidding.<\/p>\n
By contrast the previous administration seemed to depend upon an auto pen and we don\u2019t know if Biden even knew what was being signed. There is an investigation underway and already his doctor and a\u00a0couple\u00a0others have taken the Fifth Amendment.<\/p>\n
Is he a nationalist?\u00a0Donald certainly makes America the No. 1 nation\u00a0as he obtains $17 trillion of investments in America.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Donald puts non-protesting Americans first with the Big Beautiful Bill, reducing crime, making America a factor in world peace, protecting our trade with other nations, creating real jobs instead of DEI jobs, eliminating men in women\u2019s sports, which makes women very happy.\u00a0 Contrast that with catering to those who create a grievance and want a free ride and respectability without effort.<\/p>\n
Trump puts America ahead of ideology such as racism and transgenderism which are the former President\u2019s pet items.\u00a0 That leads only to favoritism and\u00a0buying\u00a0votes.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Trump cut DEI which is an expensive way of providing education or work based upon race, sexual preference etc. instead of your ability and interest in doing a good job.<\/p>\n
Minority voters are moving to Trump.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the last election\u00a0Black men voting Republican increased from 10% in 2020 to 30%.\u00a0 Hispanic men voting Republican increased from 44% in 2020 to 54%.\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 Better jobs were available when Trump became president in 2017 and with no Biden, no more loss of jobs due to the open borders.<\/p>\n
Trump is acting to change education from teacher\u2019s union control to parent control.\u00a0Education is an embarrassment in the blue states. In Minnesota, nearly 54 percent of third graders aren\u2019t meeting grade-level reading benchmarks, even though Minnesota spends twice per student what Florida spends.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Trump is rebuilding a strong military recognizing that you achieve peace only through strength as compared to Biden\u2019s debacle in Afghanistan.\u00a0 Hundreds of Americans and thousands of Afghans died when Biden turned the evacuation over to the Taliban and left $80 billion of American military items for terrorists to use while giving away our key airbase.<\/p>\n
No more invasion, abundant crime and chaos at the border.\u00a0 FBI reports almost 6,000 crimes in America in the first six months of 2025 were committed by illegal migrants.\u00a0 Trump is catching and deporting tens of thousands of cartels and migrant criminals.<\/p>\n
Now if we could only find a solution for our health care system.\u00a0Thanks to ObamaCare and Biden\u2019s overspending on the pandemic, America\u2019s health care cost jumped from $2.6 trillion in 2010 to $5 trillion in 2024. Double in 14 years while our longevity continues to be one of the poorest in the advanced world.\u00a0 Continuing to spend more money is not the solution.<\/p>\n
These are\u00a0facts instead of opinions.<\/p>\n
