"Trump was the best recent history president. Trump got more people working, raised pensions, improved GDP, sorted out the social medical system so more people had access, got more black people into work, cut down illegal immigration, reduced taxes, gave all pensioners $2000 at the start of covid to help in their income, reduced crime, never took a cent in pay. I agree he was no politician statesman, he was a hard nose business man president who got the job done. Trump was a good president his tweeting let him down." Lol I liked his tweeting. It was hilarious. | |||

"He had to of committed a crime to be charged with anything. What is his crime?" I would like to start with trying to interfere in a federal election for a start…. Which is an easy one to prove since we have all heard the Georgia call about “finding votes” But I bet he end up getting probation for that due to age….. I do still feel there is some sort of racketeering charges coming… I think they will get him on something financial rather than rehash something political out of mueller and make a martyr of him!! | |||

Yawn Employment increased at the same rate under Trump as it did under Obama as did GDP. He managed not to screw it up, which is no bad thing. He did not introduce any policies to increase ethnic minority employment. It was incidental. The US budget and trade deficits both grew throughout his period on power. Private pensions are tied to the stock market which was inflated with cheap money. Again following the same trend over many years after 2008/9. Illegal immigration to the US has been falling at a similar rate since 2007. No greater improvement under Trump. Trump claimed that Covid would be gone in a couple of months and pretended that it wasn't serious and discouraged vaccination. This compounded its negative effect on the population. Tax reductions disproportionately benefitted the wealthy and increased the deficit. The crime rate in the US has fallen at a similar rate since the 90s. No particular improvement under Trump although he did encourage an insurrection, pressurised the Ukrainian President to dig up dirt on a political rival, refused to publish his taxes and has lied consistently about the validity of the Presidential election after attempting to pressurise both State officials, the US Attorney General and the Vice President to arbitrarily hand the result to him. He is a multiply bankrupted businessman born into money. Trump was, and is, a nasty bully and everything that he said and did let him and his country down. | |||

"?" Unlikely. Possibly tax evasion, but that may end up as a fine. Imprisonment will end up looking political as will any conviction on the insurrection and attempt to influence election outcomes. | |||

I hate to break this to.. but a lot of what you said isn’t nearly as impressive as you make it sound… For example….. 1) jobs….. Obama actually created more jobs in his last 3 years in office than trump did in his first 3 years (and that was before covid!) Basically the only thing trump did was not to screw up the Obama recovery! 2) sorted out the medical system… not true, he tried to gut the affordable care act, by taking out the penalty mandate, and the expanded Medicare benefits if states matched (blue states did, red states didn’t) and tried abolishing it (if it hadn’t been for John McCain he may well have done!) then told the world he was planning a replacement and he would give details… did that for 2 years… crickets!!! 3) you mean stimulus checks… like Obama did!! Anyway democrats wanted to give 3000 dollars in their bill, senate republicans only wanted to give 1200…. And its was only when it looked like senate republicans looked like that was going to happen that trump pipped up at the last minute for 2000 dollars, and thus screwing a lot of his own party! | |||

"If Trump needs to go to jail then so do many more politicians , including Tony Blair for instance. As for the election. My god. The USA has a history of election rigging on a par with Haiti. It's so corrupt it's almost unbelievable. That's not up for debate , it's fact. No-one gets to be president unless they are a multi millionaire so don't hold that against Trump. The guy was an ass. A big orange ass . But no worse than some previous ones. America under Obama wasn't doing that great." Well said xx | |||

Never took a penny in pay but insisted on his hotels being used for international meetings and his entourage. They also stayed at his resort in Florida every weekend costing the us taxpayer hundred of millions and helping his hotels to generate much better returns . Look at the charts on growth and they were started by Obama . Trump was and is a joke . The fact that someone as old as Biden is in place is not good but it was the only safe option. The US needs to stop the two year race which is distracting and the ridiculous amounts of money spent along with finding younger more capable presidents . Obama wasn’t perfect at all but he was a progressive president. | |||

"Jail? The way Biden and Harris are behaving his jail could be a big white one on Pennsylvania Ave. And even I (from the right side of politics) would be horrified. The Republicans need to find a credible candidate quickly or Trump may well get the nomination. As for the democrats they need to pension Biden off, ditch Harris, and find a more centrist candidate. I find it hard to believe that the best a country of nearly 400 million could offer for the last 2 elections was Trump, Killary, and senile Joe. " US population 334 million. | |||

"And he as a person has been extremely successful. Probably the most successful person on the planet before online ordering and the global network took over making teenagers millionaires for you tubing videos of cats talking or whatever. Hate him all you want, but his presence was necessary at the time, and if not him, someone like him is needed again. If you can vote legally (dead, already voted, not a resident), your opinion is interesting enough, but doesn’t matter." Didn't he inherit all his money, and preside over a load of failed businesses? | |||

"Inherit from who, his dad as everyone claims? So what? His dad might have worked hard to provide a better start for his kids, which is what we all strive to do. It wasn’t his inheritance only that brought him success in business." So if he hadn't have inherited £ billions, he would have had the same businesses (which kept going bankrupt). Seems unlikely to me. Especially seeing as, and I'm being generous here, he's thick as pig shit. | |||

"every other american president has achieved at least one thing during their tenure ..... dumbass donnie achieved diddly squat, zip, nada .... still getting back to topic, the americans won't sent a mentally infirm loser like trump to san quentins reform school for boys, not after he bought the supreme court. " In fairness, he gave himself a tax break, spunked millions on a pointless half finished wall. Did he manage to take away healthcare from millions of the poorest Americans during the pandemic? I know that was one of his promises. | |||

"And he obviously isn’t a mom and pop diner owner kind of business man. Surely he has “presided over” failed businesses. People who win big rarely keep all of their chips in one game." But some keep losing and losing propping up one failing business by taking out mortgages or loans on other businesses causing them to fail and then taking most of their creditors with them! He was a “paper tiger” when it came to being a “successful business man” it was all smoke and mirrors and illusion. That is why he was so easy for the Mafia and then the Russians to compromise. He is $hundreds of millions in debt. | |||

I'm not BLAMING anyone for wanting a better life. Immigration is a good thing and necessary . But only when controlled. It is controlled. It's a non issue that right wing politicians and media outlets roll out to distract people. Because you'd know of course .you probably listen to left wing politicians and YOUR choice of media outlets , so you must be correct. My point is if it's policed well enough no wall is needed.if not. Then build a wall. Where's the problem?" Steady on there. No need to get shirty and make a long string of accusations. And why are you assuming that anyone who doesn't fall for "Mexicans are r@pists" type rhetoric (this is just an example, pick any anti immigrant sound bite) is left wing? Surely some right wing people can see through the bullshit too. All I'm saying is that immigration is a tool used to distract people. The British government do. Trump did it, to get elected. It's an effective tactic. | |||

"And he as a person has been extremely successful. Probably the most successful person on the planet before online ordering and the global network took over making teenagers millionaires for you tubing videos of cats talking or whatever. Hate him all you want, but his presence was necessary at the time, and if not him, someone like him is needed again. If you can vote legally (dead, already voted, not a resident), your opinion is interesting enough, but doesn’t matter." Most successful? I take it the names Musk, Bezos, Gates and Jobs are news to you? | |||

"I don't understand the objections to a wall. Its just a border. Everyone on here, has doors on their homes to stop others from taking what they want. Look on a country as a bigger version of a home. you work hard to furnish it. Buy nice things , fill the cupboards and fridge. How many on here are willing to open their doors and let others ( maybe unfortunate. Maybe less hard working ) take what you worked so hard for? Tell me you have no idea how a country is run without telling me you have no idea how a country is run. Tell me ? how it's possible to plan to provide healthcare.

" The left have an even more effective tool, a single card that shuts down any kind of sensible debate about resource management in this country or any country for that matter. Because the debate is so divisive and polarised it seems almost impossible to have a constructive debate on immigration and resources. | |||

"Trump was the first president since the 90s that didn't start a war, " Nah he just incited some of his thicker followers to invade the Capitol and try and trigger a civil war/insurrection. All because the vote didn’t go the way poor old Donny Wonny had been promised. He was outraged and throwing around claims it was fixed to such a degree that one can only assume he had thought it was being fixed in his favour but the turn out and swing had been so huge that even the fixing put in place to ensure his victory couldn’t cope! | |||

I missed this doosey! “Probably the most successful person on the planet before online ordering...etc” Not remotely even close! Wealthy yeah (mostly on paper as in reality transferring debt between companies) but one of the most successful! Nope! | |||
