And Don't say, "just leave". That's not an option and not nearly as fun.

Mostly she's upset that I'm not concerned with GEOTUS's taxes or his Covid response and how he didn't provide all the Covid info early on so I could make my own decisions.

I tried pointing out that GEOTUS has:

  • not started any new wars (but muh.. Syria)
  • the lowest unemployment for minorities (but muh Obama)
  • brought back manufacturing
  • Energy independence
  • Dem cities crime (but muh.. conservative states crime rates are climbing)

that's as far as I got until it devolved into an argument.

Help me Obi-Win-Kekobi's

This might help:

Covid: Trump did quickly cut off travel from China, was instantly called racist. Gave orders no cruise ships from far East should dock. One did anyway, in ... Seattle I think. It got in here. Trump sent two, two, hospital ships out, vast floating medical cities. The Hope and the Charity or something. They were never used. Covid was handled at the State level all over the country. Trump cannot make a Governor do anything.

Tell her Trump is for The Right to Try, which allows using drugs that show promise to cure it. If you believe in vaccines for it, Trump has speeded that up so much even the New York Times praised him.

His taxes: Trump DID reveal and provide his taxes. He spent a half billion, meaning five hundred million, of his own money, becoming president. After becoming president, he divested from businesses that were too internationally based, and would have been inappropriate for a president to have, who was about to renegotiate the US's trade and military engagements with other countries. He lost money doing that.

Economy: that is the big one. Trump had the best economy in a long time, lots of manufacturing jobs brought back, but then Covid came. Trump removes excessive regulations and that helps the economy. Trump is a businessman. He is the only real businessman in the entire political spectrum.

Drag in law and order while talking to her. There will be no economy without it. You cannot do business dodging riots.

Sometimes silence really is deafening. There has been NO condemnation of the various marches, riots, burnings, lootings, toppling of statues non-controversial heroes such as Lincoln, Jefferson, and the Portland Elk. They have said ... nothing. For six months.

And of course they have encouraged it, a little. But mainly they have not said one word against it, nor against defunding local police departments.

That does not go with an economy. You can't do business dodging riots.
