"All things being equal, I think President Trump is doing a damn good job his first year in office. Sure, there are things that I could choose to take exception with — not cutting as much spending as anticipated or dangerous ideas involving stablecoins in the Treasury market, for example — but all in all, Trump is getting the big things right.
Every once in a while, I check in on the Democrats to see if they have somehow organically manifested one new brain cell while they just sleep, lobotomized and Matrix-pod style, in the liquid goo of groupthink, identity politics, race hustling, “academic” theories, and post-post-post-postmodern ideologies (the fourth post just kills you)—and I’m quickly assured that they have made no progress whatsoever.
...
how exactly is Trump supposed to tackle the problem of crime in major cities and drugs and homelessness ravaging Washington, D.C.? Is he supposed to kick back in his chair and act as though everything’s fine?
You can hem and haw all you’d like about his companies’ bankruptcies in the past, but the point is Trump is a “get-shit-done” kind of person, even if it is with a heavy hand.
Even the worst that the private sector business world has to offer is millions of times more efficient than bureaucrats in government who have no idea how the free market rewards results. If Trump wakes up at 6 a.m. and goes to bed at midnight every day and only spends 2 of those 18 hours making swift, decisive decisions about getting things done while spending the rest watching Fox News and battling with the press, his days will likely still be 100 times more productive than Joe “6 Handicap” Biden’s or Kamala “Unburdened From What Has Been” Harris’ would be."
