I didn’t vote for Trump in 2016. I didn’t vote.

In 2020 I voted for Trump because knew Biden would be bad. He has done better than I expected but the inflation is killing me and the focus on the wrong thing isn’t helping.

Early on I was a De Santis fan but my interest has waned as he has taken hard stances on things that need compromise.

      I didn’t say either of those things, no.

      But the President of the United States has a responsibility to the safety of Americans and to the defense of civil order, and Trump manifestly failed in those responsibilities due to his incompetence and poor character.

        Lmao hardly. The federal government, let alone the president, should be doing next to nothing about that kind of stuff.

          Totally wrong. The President is both the commander in chief of the armed forces and the highest-ranking civil servant; ultimately these issues are his direct responsibilities.

            Lmao nice cope lol. Being high ranked doesn’t magically give the president powers beyond what the federal government should already have.

              “Cope” is the thing that you’re doing, where you excuse how incompetent Trump is.

              Being high ranked doesn’t magically give the president powers beyond what the federal government should already have.

              In point of fact the President already has powers beyond what the Federal government should have. The issue was that Trump was singularly and particularly incompetent at using power, and always has been.

                So therefore you support abusing those powers? Figures you just want the government over reaching everywhere it can

                  I don’t believe that it’s an abuse of government power to protect Americans from deadly infectious diseases, no. But Trump, being incompetent, was unable to do that. He was able to enrich himself at the expense of taxpayers, though. I don’t support that abuse. Do you?
