The real accomplishments of former President Trump

| February 7, 2021 1:00 AM

Booming economy after the pathetic Obama/Biden years.

A 40 percent reduction in illegal aliens crossing our southern border.

Oil independence from the rest of the world.

Crushed ISIS after Obama/Biden bungled the withdrawal of troops from Iraq.

Stopped the mass slaughter of civilians in Syria after Obama/Biden failed to act.

After Obama/Biden promised to get us out of Afghanistan by 2014, Trump is doing it.

Restored the Veterans Administration.

Making countries around the world pay their fair share for the defense of their countries.

Taking on the Chinese Communist party on trade and winning.

Bringing manufacturing back to the U.S.

Discarded job-crushing NAFTA and replaced it with the USMCA.

Dealt with North Korea instead of pacifying them with food and money.

Middle East Peace deal.

Middle class tax cuts. (Average of $2,200 per family.)

Moved decisively to deal with COVID-19 while Dr. Fauci and other "experts" and politicians, including Biden were saying "it’s no big deal" and "masks weren't necessary."

Trump pushed, kicked, and brow beat lifelong bureaucrats and industry leaders into action to produce PPE and ventilators and sent in the military to set up emergency tent hospitals, pushed and pushed for a vaccine. Nobody pushed like Trump.

Now the economy is recovering, jobs are coming back, the housing market is booming, fuel prices are low, the stock market is up.

President Trump openly supports God, the Second Amendment, law enforcement and our military. While Joe Biden hid behind COVID-19. President Trump led.
