Tell me why I should support Trump?
I don't support POLITICIANS. I support sound policy that puts American interests first. Trump is certainly not fulfilling that on many of the issues on which he campaigned. Neither did Biden, or Trump45, or Obama, or either Bush, or Clinton, or even Reagan in many respects. I don't personally know anyone who expected a perfect 100% "victory" on every single issue he was pushing, yet some seem to have that attitude.
Tell me why anyone would ignore the lies he tells daily?
As much as he claims not to be one, Trump is a politician. Most of his "lies" are nothing but boasting or him getting facts purely wrong. Everyone knew this 10 years ago. Maybe you're talking about the lie from term 45 where he said that he fed "a mile" of cheeseburgers to a sports team. Some crack journalist actually measured said cheeseburger and determined that there is no way Trump fed "a mile" of them to that sports team. That guy should get a Pulitzer Prize for that investigative journalism.
Hakeem Jeffries gets on tv every morning and lies his ass off. Oh wait-- he's another politician. Countless numbers of Congress-critters do the same from the Senate or House floor. I personally am not going to ignore lies, but I am also not going to fixate on them and lose my shit.Tell me what he’s done, not said, done to improve our country?
- He shut down the damned invasion at the border.
- He directed DHS to expel the invaders.
- He got the US OUT OF the stupid fucking Paris climate treaty.
- He got us OUT of the World Health Organization.
- He made it crystal clear to Europe that THEY need to pay for their own defense/NATO.
- He repealed many restrictive issues with bureaucratic bullshit red-tape at the EPA and many other agencies (such as the insane WOTUS rules)
- He has worked to eliminate DEI bullshit in federal agencies and fed-funded programs.
- He worked to end the insanity of men in women's sports and put schools on notice to TRULY enforce Title IX as intended.
- He pushed to end child mutilation funded via Federal programs.
That's not a bad list.
IMO, what he has failed at the most is...
- First and foremost: Trump has failed at reigning in federal spending-- This is the same criticism I had of Trump45. The recklessness here in this administration may push us to the brink of financial collapse-- and it's an existential threat to our country.
- a LOT more people should be in jail for high crimes at high levels across a variety of areas.
- Epstein is a horrible tragic joke any more and I believe we will NEVER know the details of it. ...and for everyone screaming "Pedo-Trump"-- I'd like to see the evidence of it to a degree that is irrefutable. If not, go watch "To Kill a Mockingbird"
- ??? -- his term is still less than half done.

I post many of his blatant, lies here daily.
To imply the one you are calling out about some cheeseburger incident is laughable.
And apparently its ok becasue all politicians lie?...
I'm not going to take an hour and list them all here, you already know, just refuse to acknowledge them
Here's a few of his lies- (Not the other clusterfucks, many of which are worse, just the lies)
- No more foreign wars
- The BIG Lie- Iran was weeks from having a nuclear weapon, we had to invade - this will haunt us for a decade
- Venezuela was a threat, we had to invade and steal their oil
- Cuba, Greenland, Canada, Columbia...I think I'm forgetting a few
- Social Security is tax free (this pisses me off because of unknowing old people believing him)
- Tariffs are paid by the foreign seller
- $5000 DOGE refunds, $2000 tariff rebates, Healthcare plan (inlc paying citizens instead of offsetting Ins companies)
- Epstein files are a Democrat Hoax (His name appears 2nd only to Epstein. The FBI was tasked with redacting his name. He;s fought tooth and nail to have them hidden. 47,000 files were delt6ed by FBI own admission just a few weeks ago
- "Going to cut your electricity bill in half"
- DOGE/Federal Spending - its all been for show. Spending has gone UP, a LOT. Now he's asking for a 50% increase for Defense spending.
- Gas below $2.00 (that was just 3-4 months ago)
- Downed F-15 pilot rescue fairytale
- His new .Gov IRA accounts becasue so many can't get them - blatant lie. Go to Schwab.com. Anyone can open one, for free. The Trump IRA plan he announced was written into law in 2022
- Golden Age - Economy is great!
- Private donors are going to pay $400 million for his Bunker, er Ballroom
- Drain the Swamp - instead becomes the Swamp and endorses reauthorization of warrantless surveillance capabilities with FISA 702.
- Not a Single arrest of the many elites he said would be
- Most transparent administration -
- I'm lowering 600%, 800% discounts on drugs! - the "program" simply points users to existing drug maker sponsored programs for discounts
- Daily, sometimes Hourly lies on the status of the Iran not-War
- Tax policy from the Big Bullshit Bill for Idiots- The wealthiest 5% of Americans paid less in taxes, the other 95% paid more.
Former Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby confirms a massive crisis inside the military.
He reveals top generals are utterly terrified to speak out about the disastrous Middle East war.
The Trump administration is maliciously threatening pensions to enforce total silence!

CNN confirms a historic disaster. Donald Trump's independent approval rating is completely collapsing.
He is officially more unpopular than Richard Nixon during Watergate and George Bush during the Iraq War.
Trump's disastrous and unprovoked Iran war is destroying his future.

I underlined where your claim of a lie incorporates a lie of its own.
I put question marks where the accusation of a lie is unsubstantiated or the facts are not all in, or it is just anti-Trump propoganda & disinformation. and there are probably a lot more that could go in.
BTW--- The ballroom SHOULD be built and future presidents will thank him (silently and privately behind the scenes-- because, you know, Orange Man Bad).
For as much as you want to proclaim that anyone who does not think exactly as you are purely kool-aid drinkers, you have been consumed with the kool-aid of "Orange Man Bad", and you take any kind of OMB propaganda as pure factual truth...and then post it here.
Dude, seek help
I recommend you research each and every one of those. I have.
I'll bet you $100 per line item
You're living in a fantasy world. I feel sorry for you

Show me the OMB? propaganda (whatever that is).... Is it in the room with us now?
So you're saying 7 Not highlighted of the list ARE NOT Trump Admin lies, is that right?
And 14 you agree ARE Lies
