The Horrors And Destruction That Donald Trump Has Imposed On America...Just Kidding! Part 21

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. 

A little over two years 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 a little over two years, 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 twenty seven 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 well over 200 good things that have happened to America and Americans since Trump became President can found by entering the phrase “the horrors and destruction” in the search box above. Today, let’s add another dozen or so good things that are going on in the country even though the doubters hate the reality that Trump is President:

- The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits dropped to the lowest level in nearly half a century last month, March, 2019, dropping to 192,000, the lowest number since September, 1969, when the population was much smaller.

- The four week moving average of unemployment benefit filings last month was at the lowest level since November, 1969.

- National retail sales jumped by 1.6% last month, the highest growth level in eighteen months, indicating a still strong economy.

- The stock market has rebounded from a late 2018 drop and is almost back to record high levels.

- The infamous, expensive, and discredited Mueller investigation has cleared Trump of collusion, obstruction, and any other criminal activity.

- A strong March, 2019 jobs report kept the national unemployment rate at 3.8%, close to a 50 year low.

- Hispanics, traditionally a very strong Democratic voting bloc, gave Trump a 50% approval rate according to a recent McLaughlin and Associates poll, a 50% approval rate in a recent Marist/NPR/PBs survey, and a still high 45% approval rate in a recent Morning Consult/Politico poll.

- According to a recent Rasmussen poll, 41% of Americans feel America is on the right track as compared to mid-high 20s during Obama’s last full year in office in 2016.

- Another Rasmussen poll found that the overall approval rate of Trump is at 49%, a number that has been trending upwards and a rate that is higher than Obama’s at the same time of each administration.

- Trump donated his latest salary of $100,000 to immigration support, much like he has donated all of his previous salary dollars to supporting veterans’ needs, the fight against alcoholism, and other worthy causes that affect many Americans.

- The Trump administration has launched a $350 million effort to fight opioid addiction, through research and treatment, in an effort to reduce opioid overdose deaths by 40% in four especially hard hit states, Kentucky, Ohio, New York, and Massachusetts.

For those of you that have hated on Trump since day one, and given your obvious gross error in judgment relative to Trump given the well 200 accomplishments we have previously listed and the ten newest accomplishments listed above, 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 200 accomplishments in a little less than two years is not too shabby despite many of you wanting both Trump and the country to fail.
