The Horrors and Destruction that Donald Trump Has Imposed On America...Just Kidding! Part 10

Before we start today’s discussion, let’s review my voting history: 

• I have never voted for a Republican for President in my life. 
• Thus, I did not vote for Trump. 
• I have rarely voted for a Republican for national office in my life. 

About 18 months ago, many liberals, Democrats, and millennials were besides themselves with grief and fear because their pre-ordained queen, Hillary Clinton, was not elected President. Instead, Donald Trump was elected, an individual that these same people despised, hated, and feared, an individual they felt would endanger and possibly destroy the country and our democracy. For the past year and a half they fretted, worried and lashed out at anything or anyone that even remotely smelled of Donald Trump.

Given that Trump has been in office for about 18 months, I thought, that as someone who did not vote for him, it would be a good idea to review the horror, trauma, and terrible things that Trump has subjected the country to in just eighteen month’s time. This is obviously a very sarcastic comment when you take an unbiased look at what has happened during the Trump Presidency. The many previous posts we did on this topic identified over 120 good things that have happened to America and Americans since Trump became President:

- According to a recent Wall Street Journal/NBC opinion poll, Trump’s approval rating is at its highest level yet at 45%, putting his approval rate at or above Obama’s, Clinton’s, Carter’s and Reagan’s at the same time in their Presidencies.

- According to that same survey, his approval rating among Republicans is at a very high 88%.

- Although liberals and Democrats would like you to believe that Trump is only popular among uneducated white guys, his approval rating among white/college educated voters has gone from 39% in October 2017 to 48% today.

- In another recent poll, this one from RealClearPolitics.com, Trump’s approval rating is also measured at 45%.

- According to analysis of photo surveillance photos, North Korea is actively taking apart important nuclear weapons facilities, hopefully a first step to stopping its nuclear weapons development effort as agreed to at the Trump/Kim summit meeting.

- North Korea recently fulfilled the promise it made to Trump at the summit meeting to return the remains of U.S. soldiers killed in the Korean war, actually returning the remains of 55 U.S. servicemen.

- According to polling by Rasmussen, Trump’s approval rating is even higher, at 48%.

- Americans are so confident in the Trump economy that a record number of Americans are voluntarily quitting their current jobs, assuming they can get a better job in this healthy economy. This so-called “quit rate” is at a 17 year high.

- And in the best economic news in years, the country’s GDP increased over 4% (4.1%) in the second quarter of this year, the highest economic growth performance in years.

- Trump’s toughness on trade resulted in the U.S. trade deficit dropping a remarkable $52 billion in the second quarter.

- The women’s unemployment rate is at the lowest level in over 60 years as the African-American, Hispanic, and Asian unemployment rates are still at or near their lowest level ever.

- The unemployment rate for veterans is at the lowest level in 18 years.

- The unemployment level for disabled Americans is also at a record low level.

- The hot economy has resulted in 3.5 million Americans getting off of the Federal food assistance programs because they now have jobs.

- U.S. manufacturer wages are growing at the fastest pace in 17 years.

- The Trump tax cuts have already led to U.S. companies bringing back $300 billion back into this country for investment in even more jobs and increased manufacturing.

Another sixteen reasons to add to the previous 130 or so reasons why the first year and a half of the Trump Presidency has not wrought disaster on the country.

For those of you that have hated on Trump since day one, and given your obvious gross error in judgment relative to Trump, let me ask that you to do us all a favor by implementing the following changes in your behavior and attitude:

• Chill out, tamp down your TDS affliction. No matter how much you hate Trump on a sexist, personal basis, get over it. He is the legally and duly elected President, he will be around for a while so refocus your hatred on more constructive issues and matters. You will live a lot longer if you take your hatred out of your heart and soul and devote it to something positive.
• I would really appreciate it if some of you would apologize to the Trump voters you have disrespected in some of the grossest terms possible over the past year. You have called millions of voters racists, ignorant, stupid, Nazis, KKK members, and other horrible names simply because you disagreed with their voting choice. No American should be called such disgusting names simply because they exercised their Constitutional rights to the best of their abilities. Plus, slandering over 60 million Americans is no way to unite the country and get it focused on the real issues facing us all.
• More personally, I would like, no I am demanding, an apology from some of you for your slanderous and disgusting name calling because in doing so, you insulted and disrespected my sister, my family members, my friends, and my co-workers who simply voted their conscience. I will defend their right to vote anyway they wanted and will no put up with your childish and vicious venom and bile directed at them, very important people in my life.

And finally, I challenge you to read the following blog post, a post that shows quite clearly that it was hateful people like some of you and your silence during the Obama years that actually caused Trump to be elected. Thus, the people you hate for voting for Trump are actually looking back at you in the mirror:

If you were silent in the dozens of instances listed in this post then you were responsible for the very thing you hate: a Trump Presidency. Or put another way, a so far successful and productive Trump Presidency. Over 140 accomplishments in a little more than a year is not too shabby despite many of you wanting both Trump and the country to fail.
