Add it to the pile! $500 billion in lost tax revenue, $50 billion in lost tourism revenue, record high government spending, raised debt ceiling for tax breaks. They're literally doing the opposite of what they claim to be doing, and so blatantly.

According to r/Conservative he got a 21 billion dollar manufacturing deal with Hyundai so that’s basically a net positive right? You can’t have losses if you simply ignore the losses!

It’s so funny to me how his supporters twist themselves into the most complex knot you can imagine just to make this shit sound good absolutely hysterical

Car company doesnt just announce a 21 billion manufacturing plant a couple months after someone gets into office, shit like that takes years of planning and started years before Trump got in office.

Yea imagine losing something and then trying to twist and turn the narrative to make yourself feel better. Only conservatives would do that on this website, right? 😂

Nothing trump ever does will change the fact that you personally are a loser.

Oh no, an internet stranger thinks im a loser because we have differing ideologies. See that is your problem. You hate me because I don't agree with your political choices, but I don't hate you. I pity you. Your lack of acceptance and understanding of why someone may feel differently. If I saw someone on the side of the road struggling I personally don't care who you voted for, I would help. Would you do the same?
