GOD BLESS HIM! If history is fair, he will be remembered as one of the greatest.

Unfortunately, history is rarely fair.

I still don't think many understand how lucky we were these last four years. Trump inherited a mess, especially on foreign policy. Ending ISIS alone should have gotten him re-elected in a landslide.

Plus the Arab/Israeli normalization of relations, record breaking economy and unemployment, peacefully handling the NK mess, pushing back against China finally, the wall, shit canning NAFTA and replacing it, fixing the VA, tax cuts, forcing NATO to pay up, attempting to withdraw from Afghanistan, Syria, and Iraq(the lying to him by the pentagon is truly disgusting), not starting a single new war, and on and on let he gets zero credit outside of his base. So fucking frustrating..

And most of it will be undone under Biden.

Absolutely not forgetting. My point was, I had hoped that just for once liberals too would get some common sense and join the rest of us in voting for Trump. Tragically, a lot of them stuck with their walking mess of a candidate.

He was re-elected in a landslide, but he's being forced out anyways.

I think the odds were overwhelmingly against us this time. Even a lot of people we believed were allies turned out to be backstabbers. And as one of the few MAGA supporters to survive on Twitter five years later, I clearly remember the censorship not being this extreme when I started in 2015-16. Since Trump won, that place has become a virtual gulag. Don't even get me started on the MSM's deception, and never forget how outlets like the Washington Post, were willing to praise fucking Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, simply because they could not bring themselves to give Trump credit for destroying ISIS.

Not that it matters but, how old are you?

My father is the oldest person that I've come across who has made that statement. He is 78. FDR was President when he was born.

Digfoot's father was alive since FDR, he didn't state that his father thought that Trump was the best President since FDR.

Did you mistake my mentioning FDR as a historical marker to mean the I was saying, "Trump is the greatest President since FDR!!!"?

To be clear the message in my post was:

My father also says that Trump is the greatest President of his life time - a range that covers 32% of our nation's existence; spanning the list from FDR to DJT.

The point being, his list probably includes even more names.
