Why do you like Donald Trump?

And if you do, and believe you have good reason to, what do you think if his bizarre tweets?

Bold assuming anyone with three brain cells to rub together likes Trump.

I don't think anyone here will condone his personal behaviour or attacks, but his actual economic policies have actually resulted in prosperity and regeneration for a lot of the US.

By the way, I hope the Democrats were watching our election closely... nominate someone like Bernie Sanders, get Trump again...

What are these specific policies that have caused this?

Hillary may have abused the women who spoke up about her husband- that is unacceptable. However, Trump is the kind of man who would do the abusing and their are recordings that he has! How does this make him better? If I had to choose I would rather go with the person who wrongly abused the women accusing my DH than the guy who commits that kind of abuse and thinks it's ok as he's a 'star'

Trump is a despicable person on every front, and will almost certainly go down as the worst president in history - ignorant, mendacious, greedy, corrupt, bigoted, sexist, bullying, lawless, heartless, cruel, petty, vulgar, vindictive.

The only people who like him are those who either vicariously enjoy his viciousness and strutting, or those who have profited.

I could see why people voted him in in 2016, I could see his appeal. He was something different, he spoke out and seemed like he would put America first. He said it how it was- or how he thought it was. He was the opposite of the establishment that people had stopped trusting.

How people can still vote for him after four years of his presidency I cannot understand. Especially ethnic minorities and women. I just can't comprehend how they could possibly support such a man.

I’m not an American however some of his policies were excellent:

Made it more transparent for hospital patients to see exactly how much their bill would be, including the discounted rate the hospital is willing to accept from the patient.

Unemployment was at record lows, Americans were earning more money under Trump.

Harmonised relations in the Middle East with Israel. For the first time ever, Israel is recognised by the UAE and other Middle Eastern nations.

He recognises Taiwan as an independent nation and Taiwan praised his hard stance on against China and support Taiwan independence (thankfully Biden is continuing the trend).

His stimulus package was quite good. Biden’s in comparison isn’t much better.

Overall I didn’t like him. Extremely polarising, overestimated his ability as a president and would let the nation break into a civil war. I personally wouldn’t vote for him if I were American.

I can see how he won in 2016 - an outsider who could drain the swamp and a fresh face in politics. The US was getting tired of the same ole politicians. Trump offered a new alternative for many Americans and promised to put the US first and bring back jobs from China (which he did, some anyway).
