Frank Miele: Before We Forget: What Trump Did Right

Agreed.

Fixed the border, addressed waste/fraud/abuse in government programs, TrumpRx, at least tried to address Venezuela, Iran and Cuba, no tax on tips and reduced taxes on Social Security...

I'd add:

Stopped the Biden administration's attacks on free speech

Struck major blows agianst DEI

Struck major blows against transgender pseudoscience and its abuse of children

Reduced government regulation

Struck major blows against global warming hysteria and radically improved U.S. energy policy

Job creation: good

Stock market: good

SCOTUS: perhaps his greatest achievement.

His DoJ addressing state-level violations of the Second Amendment

...

and that's just for starters.

The guy drives me crazy, and I abhor his frequently-divisive demeanor. I don't think someone with his, er, uneven temperament should be President. I'm not sure what to think about the tariffs. I'm extremely opposed to his infringements of free speech--especially the flag-burning nonsense. I fear that Trump fatigue will give us a Democrat House--and perhaps President in '28.. And then the whole disaster of the Biden years may well be repeated.

   But, just looking at the good side of the ledger, I'd say: the best President of the 21st Century, by far.

   Well, I left out his post-election freakout and his role in the Capitol riot and fostering electoral skepticism on the right. That's a complicated subject...and I actually think he was at least right about the general point: the election of 2020 was sketchy, and the Democrats are undermining the security of our elections. I wish he'd just say that instead of insisting that his 2020 "landslide" was stolen...
