You bring up a lot. Be careful what you consider "looking into" or "studying" to mean. If you're using google for instance you are already censoring out anything that isn't critical of Trump. We're on this website too because sites like reddit will delist the info you are looking for so even honest search engines will hide it from you. But, to answer some points.

I think we have less universal healthcare than before Obamacare. Just because your name is on a list doesn't mean you have real healthcare. Trump is the first to bring prices down in decades. He pushed legislation that requires providers be transparent about price. He made companies who sell abroad offer the same prices to US that they do for other high standard countries.

He never presided over a full republican government. Too many RINOs. If he had he would have had wall funding from the beginning. No there are many RINOs like McCain who campaign on things like ending ACA but then flip flop at the last moment.

As for trans rights, what right do they not have? He merely excluded them from the military. If a group of people have a 40% suicide rate, it is maybe negligent to put them in the military. But he was lambasted for this. Federal minimum wage is tough because cost of living is still very cheap in much of the US. Employment and wages naturally rose under him. Minimum wage laws can have the effect of sending jobs overseas.

As for his company sourcing from China. Many tarrifs were passed under him. He said himself that he needs to be competitive. Imagine if the teacher allows a cheat sheet. Will you be the only one to refuse? Companies have a duty to shareholders. Giving charity is ok but not if I take the money from you pocket and without your concent. There was a big steel tariff. That is why US Steel is slowly recovering maybe.

Anti war means anti war. I am glad he pulled troops out of the middle east. It is not the US's place to be a police. And I don't want to take money out of your pocket to send someone with a gun to hopefully make things better... hopefully. NK did some testing but not for long range. Many agreements were already not kept before Trump and I think relations are better now.

As for Trump uni I don't know but he did lend his name to a lot of things and isn't a micro manager. If you own a company with 1000 people, you will not ne proud of everything that happens under that roof but I see no personal transgressions. That said, he is not Jesus but I don't think there is any reason to believe he stole or scammed anyone. I know they try to spin the housing discrimination suit against his dad into something it wasn't. The government was racketeering and brought suit against many NY developers based on univariate analysis is what it looked like to me.

As for why I still support him? Well is anyone arguing there weren't poll watchers for hundreds of thousands of votes? No, there is even video evidence. The UN says poll watchers are necessary. And pretty much the last few decades of US policy have been acting as watch dogs with poll watchers being the number one thing. Covid regulations made what poll watchers that were there unable to do their jobs. Any foriegn election that had a 10th the issues with poll watchers would be deemed by all US media and government as fraudulent. And there was so much more.
