    Sorry, but you’re not representative of the majority considering your political views. I’d say you’re pretty much a dying breed. The world today isn’t going back to the good old days of empires or racial based nations. The more cosmopolitan and open a society is, the less people want to go back.

    Oh whatever. Get over the sour grapes already! As long as Trump and his supporters are dealt with harshly by democrats and Biden supporters, there will be no national unity or healing. You all Treating Trump and us with with the same respect you want us all to show Biden and you all is a non negotiable precondition for any such thing.

    Very unusual for the BBC to be so outspoken against a former president.

    Even they do not hide what a liar he is.

    uh, he did not out perform obamas economy, or spend less. I wasn't aware that every single state has a democrat governor, lol. You didn't get a single thing right in your post.

    Part of normalizing the relations was Israel would halt West Bank settlements, they have restarted more settlements. Not sure how that will play out, at worse it can be a deal breaker.

    Is the majority truly righteous though? Are you satisfied being fed crumbs by a plutocracy who puts basically happy faces on a camera for you to be satisfied, all the meanwhile they truly couldn't care less whether you lived or died? I'm seriously going to be bemused by the next 6-8 months. "We elected the people's President, Joe Biden, WTF happened?"

    So? Here’s the biggest truth of life on this planet: Nobody cares if you live or die. You’re just an individual in a sea of other individuals. I don’t give a damn if a politician cares about me or not, I just don’t want a moron that takes arbitrary bad and far reaching decisions because someone didn’t kowtow low enough before him.

    He absolutely did and I have posted the metrics multiple times msm. No matter how many times you deny it, it remains objectively true. And also, even in red states it’s blue areas that have been hit the hardest. The dems failed hard and cost many lives.

    he quite demonstrably did not. And you didn’t post any metrics.

    But you are perfectly aware that your claim is demonstrably false. He did not put perform obama or spend less.

    Blue areas is where people live. Nobody wants to live in red areas, because your policies are garbage, harmful and proven failures.

    Lol...talk about sour grapes. The reality is that trump and his cult are irrelevant. If they want to rejoin our country and work to make it better, then they are welcome, but we are done with the lies and the paranoia that trump spread for 4 years, and his cult would do well to wean themselves off his rancid teat.
    The inauguration today was beautiful and a wonderful reaffirmation of the real America. You should pay attention.

    Now you want to move the goal posts.

    Who contributed more to the debt. Obama.

    Your claim that those facts are wrong was, well, wrong.

    Obama was there eight years, Trump four.

    Do I really need to explain to you that if Trump had been President for two terms, he would have put the country in much more debt than Obama?

    Then we both have some excitement in store because he's better than that already.

    Thump was a good President if you made your living clipping dividend coupons. Problem is that even there we were likely headed for some hard times due to his policies and still are, which conservatives will promptly blame on us, as they always do.

    Thats not what was said.

    It was stated that Obama contributed more to the debt and had a stronger economy. Both statements were true.

    Quote: Trump outperformed Obama's economy while spending less.

    First, one of the greatest hypocrisy in partisan politics is blaming POTUS ''or'' Congress for Uncle Sam's spending.

    ''or'' in quotation means; in an effort to discredit, or glorify, This musical chair partisan game has been played for a long time, and said partisan game won't end today/tomorrow.

    Question # 1: Prior to Covid19's recession, did Trump's economy outperformed Obama's economy?

    Answer; Absolutely!

    Question # 2; Prior to Covid19's recession, did nearly doubling the deficit from $585 billion to $1.1. trillion boosted Trump's GDP/economy?

    Answer; Absolutely!

    Question; By how much?

    Answer; An easy question to me, however, a tough question for Trump's uneducated and below average intelligent loyalists.

    Really?

    First, once again, let's educate Trump's loyalists.......

    Components of GDP

    https://www.thebalance.com/components-of-gdp-explanation-formula-and-chart-3306015#:~:text=The four components of gross,government spending, and net exports.&text=GDP is the country's total,being spent in that economy.

    GDP Formula;

    Consumer Personal Consumption Expenditures.......$

    +

    Gross Private Domestic Investment..........$

    +

    Government Consumption Expenditures and Gross Investment
    Federal.........$
    State and Local.......$

    +/-

    Net exports of goods and services........$

    Fact; On Dec 31st, 2016, Uncle Sam's REAL Federal Government Consumption Expenditures and Gross Investment (FGCEA) amounted to $1.191 trillion

    On Dec 31st, 2019, thus, prior to Covid19 recession, Uncle Sam's REAL FGCEA amounted to $1.301 trillion.

    Thus, over three years, Trump's REAL FGCEA increased by $110 billion

    https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FGCEC1

    Question; Had we maintained Obama's REAL FGCEA at $1.191 trillion, RECALCULATE Trump's 2019 REAL GDP;

    ACTUAL

    2018 REAL GDP; $18.688 trillion

    + 2.2% ($404 billion)

    2019 REAL GDP; $19.092 trillion

    ---------

    RECALCULATE (Minus $110 billion)

    2018 REAL GDP; $18.688 trillion

    + 286 bilion ($404 billion - $110 billion)

    2019 REAL GDP; $18.974 trillion, thus, an increase of near 1.6%

    OBAMA's 2016 ''DISMAL'' GDP GROWTH RATE; 1.7%

    https://www.thebalance.com/us-gdp-by-year-3305543

    TRUMP'S loyalists response to all of the above-mentioned indisputable facts; No response, in one ear, out the other.

    Next; Other economical benefits of near doubling Obama's 2016 deficit over three years......stay tuned.
