Trump

As the election grows ever near it is time for some serious introspection on just what will happen if Trump is reelected. The speculation in the press is that Trump will end democracy and put his detractors in prison. With Trump we have an advantage not seen in my life time. We have a man who was president and the best way to predict what he will do is to evaluate what he did in his previous term as president. The last time he was well on his way to being reelected when Covid hit and ended his chances. So let's take a close look on what he did during his first term. Inflation was under 2%. The border was secure. He placed severe sanctions on Iran. He placed import taxes on China. The country was energy independent. He put in the Trump tax cuts. He was pro Israel by moving the embassy to Jerusalem. He started the Abraham Accords. He did not agree with the election results but he left office peacefully. He didn't try to jail his opposition. So what can we expect in his next term. There will be an all out push to maximize fossil fuel production. He will secure the border using the same procedures he used before. He will renew the Trump tax cuts. He will bring back the sanctions on Iran. He will add more import taxes on Chinese goods. He will reduce regulations to encourage bringing jobs back home. He will negotiate a peace agreement in Ukraine. He will back Israel and expeditiously send what ever supplies they need. The best way to judge Trump is the same way to judge anyone. Look at what they do not what they say. In Trumps case it means look at what he did, past tense.
