    Even if it’s real, Trump has been president before, and he didn’t tank the economy that time.

      You mean when he had an administration that kept guard rails in place to stop him from doing the things he really wanted to do unlike this time? Yes, it was better when he wasn’t given kingly powers.

        I assume they are implying that it will be similar to the first rerm, which requires ignoring all the differences between the two.

          See my other comment, I’m not implying anything. The Trump cult will call foul play because Trump is way past his first 200 days if you consider his first presidency. Twisting the truth is their specialty, right beside accusing others of what they do themselves.

            So what? Liars lie and that has zero relevance when discussing something that is factually accurate.

              Yeah, I’ll just delete my comments here and block this community from my feed. The way people communicate over here is not for me. Have a great day everyone, and good luck sticking it to the GOP’s.

      He didn’t do it any good either. Also even though his first term was a disastrous dumpster fire, it was still relatively tame compared to what is going on now. Back then he could still be intimidated somewhat by the system, this time he knows he can do anything he wants.
