    In many ways, he was disappointing to me however, I think the Covid pandemic and that idiot cop kneeling all that dudes neck causing riots were unfortunate circumstances no one could’ve predicted, ur thoughts?

      Not OP but I think I more or less agree with you.

      I don’t worship him like some folks do. But I don’t hate the man either.

      I think if he didn’t have the mainstream media being a bunch of soy drinking cucks and everybody working against him, then he probably would have been a lot more successful. Anyway, I largely agreed with his policies (pro-gun, build a wall, don’t take shit from China/North Korea/etc, drain the swamp, lower taxes, and so on).

      But I’m not blindly pro-trump either. I didn’t care for that snakey ex-Verizon lawyer he put at the head of the FCC, I think he should have pushed for stricter penalties on corps that want to be US companies but use offshore resources/replace workforce with visa’d workers/layoff workers solely to screw them out of promised pensions/etc, and I think he should have pardoned Snowden on his way out.

      That said, if the left was willing to find less polarizing candidates than Hillary, I’d have been fine with someone other than Trump.

      Don’t think he has any intentions of running but everything I’ve seen with Josh Hawley (Missouri senator that is very much against big tech’s corrupt bs) makes me wish he was.
