What Legacy Does Trump Leave?

[Mendalla]

Wonder if it matters to his wife?

As long as he didn't call her by a previous wife's name. Or call her "Stormy".

 

[Northwind]

He's also admitted he doesn't have the cash to pay his fines. He only has $100 million in cash.....

 

[Waterfall]

He's also admitted he doesn't have the cash to pay his fines. He only has $100 million in cash.....

Then sell or remortgage a building.

CANADA'S BIDEN?: Trudeau says Russia 'must win' war in embarrassing gaffe

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday mistakenly said "Russia must win this war."

I sense the Trump is slipping a bit mentally, but his condition is not even remotely as bad as Biden's and by all accounts he is still able to electrify his packed out audiences with stirring speeches.

A woman who has done more to help the poor and needy than anyone I've ever met recently told me glowingly."when I was recently hospitalized, an angel entered my room and, among other things, told me, "Trump is going to win the next presidential election." I think the angel was wrong, but I didn't have the heart to say that to her.

Interesting that you don’t point out (like the Sun article did) that Trudeau immediately corrected himself and apologized for the error. Do you recall. At any time, ever, when Trump corrected himself? I can’t.

 

[Northwind]

Trump is far worse than Biden. Biden for all his faults seems to be essentially a decent person. As decent as any politician can be. He's not perfect. He's probably what was needed post Trump.

Trump is a horrible person. We've seen him action for the better part of 50 years. What decent thing have we seen from him?

Biden is slipping as people do at that age. He's not as sharp as he was back in the day.

Trump is noticably different. There's a deterioration from even 2015. There's definitely a deterioration since the 80's when he was arguably smart and sharp. Shrewd even. Now he's full of rage and revenge. He messes up his wife's name (allegedly). He repeated Nikki Haley's name in some kind of mental misfire. If that's not seriously deterioration and signs of dementia, well, there's no such thing as dementia.

I spent my career working with people. I've met many with Trump's personality disorder. He's right on cue, having his version of a temper tantrum because he's being held accountable. Finally. That's scary in a person in his position.

And surely to goodness both parties could do better. (As could the Canadian parties)

The point is that even mentally healthy politicians like Trump commit gaffes. I've recently heard reports of how sharp and electrifying a speaker Trump still is at his packed out political rallies. Policy-wise, was a far superior president to both Biden and Obama. Everyone I know around here accepts that.
On the other hand, there's good reason why Biden's handlers keep him under wraps with as little exposure to Q and A sessions from the press as possible.
Despite my disagreement with his caustic style, I will submit the ballot I just received in the mail as a vote for Trump, now that Nikki Haley has no chance to gain traction. Anyone but a senile Biden!

I'm amused by the unrealistic negativity of far left Canuck posters here about all politicians. You just need to recognize the compromises politicians need to make =to satisfy their constituents and get elected.

 

[jimkenney12]

I do not understand. Trump does not need your vote. You declared you preferred Haley to Trump. Voting for Trump in a Primary has little to do with the vote in November.

Why should anyone just accept the leaders that are presented to us? What is wrong with wanting better of our leaders?

 

[Redbaron]

Trump? ‘Mentally healthy?’ Surely you jest. President Biden may be showing signs of aging, but he is not senile. As far as superior policies? The tariff that did nothing except make goods more costly for Americans come to mind. The locking up of refugee children in steel cages springs from memory. The firing of the staff responsible for preparedness for a pandemic glares back like an angry ogre. Who did all this, and more? Not President Biden. Those questionable things were brought to you by Trump.

The Far Left here need to temper their agenda-driven comments with an education in Trump's many presidential accomplishments:

The Complete List of President Trump's Accomplishments | 1310 WIBA | Dan O'Donnell

This is the complete list of President Trump's accomplishments over his four years in office originally posted at WhiteHouse.gov and archived here because of the likelihood that the Biden Administration will remove it.

wiba.iheart.com

The Far Left here seem to hate all current politicians and just wallow in negativity with no appreciation for nuance, especially with respect to Trump.
Progressive Christians here need to be reminded that King Davis was a murderer and an adulter. Yet he is the only man in Scripture to be described as "a man after God's own heart (1 Samuel 13:14)." Trump's candidacy may not survive all these political legal witch hunts, but if he does. he'll get my vote instead of our current victim of Dementia. O how lefties here wish Trump also had dementia, but then they lack the same access we have to Biden's constant stream of gaffes and the lengths his handlers go to keeping him out of the interview limelight. Nor are they privy to Trump's highly effective rally speeches that fire up his base.

 

[Northwind]

There is no far left, nevermind left, in the US. Sure, there are people like AOC. They are not the Bogeyman the MAGA crowd would have us believe.

I'm amused by the unrealistic negativity of far left Canuck posters here about all politicians. You just need to recognize the compromises politicians need to make =to satisfy their constituents and get elected.

Please explain how the MAGA crowd is showing compromise. Please do.

Trump's candidacy may not survive all these political legal witch hunts, but if he does.

Political witch hunts? There's tons of evidence, much of it in plain view.

As far as Trump's 'highly effective rally speeches,' there are reports that at his rallies, before he appears to speak, members of the event staff go through and remove empty seats, so the crowd looks fulller, and so that Trump doesn't have to address empty seats.
And much of the content of his speech is about he is persecuted (in reality, he is being prosecuted, not persecuted. There is a wide difference between those two words!). He whines at length about why Joe Biden is prosecuting him. (In the real world, it is the Justice Department that is prosecuting him. President Biden is not involved at all.).
And let us not forget his efforts to delay and detail his trials. Seems to me if he were really innocent, he would want to speed those along and get them done. Then he wouldn't have them messing up his campaign schedule.

 

[Redbaron]

I also recall you posting a similar list to that some time ago; in fact this sounds eerily familiar. In that case, most of his accomplishments were quickly debunked; indeed, as I recall, it was created by Trump's staff. I would guess this list comes from a similar, if not indeed the same, source or sources.

I've recently heard reports of how sharp and electrifying a speaker Trump still is at his packed out political rallies. Policy-wise, was a far superior president to both Biden and Obama.

Wow.

Obviously you have a strange memory of what is sharp and electrifying, and what is not. Obama is and was an inspiring and articulate speaker, albeit more accessible to those with IQs above 100 than those below. I rather think that Mr. Drumpf's target audience may be those with a lower percentile IQ. There's got to be those to balance the whole idea of a continuum and percentiles, yes?

But my opinion, of course. As a poor back country Canuck, albeit dreadfully fond of Margaret Atwood.

 

[Northwind]

Arguably Trump was able to woo crowds back in the day. He had a charm (that I don't like) and it was understandable on a certain level how people could be smitten with him. Superficially that is. Of course, if you looked deeper into his "charm" it was hiding a shallow, selfish lack of character. As you say @BetteTheRed , his current speeches are all about "me, me, me" (trump that is) . His "energy" is hypomania. He has the attention span of a gnat and goes on illogical tangents. I mean, WTF is it about his fascination with waters, showers and toilets?? Seriously, this is a presidential speech?? He's on record with these hypomania, tangential, illogical "speeches".

He is a shell of the man he used to be. His speeches today are very different from what they were 9 or 40 years ago. He's a whiny, narcissistic loser.

He is woefully unfit for the office of POTUS.

And why are Canadians concerned about American politics? Being the powerful country it is, the president has an impact beyond the US borders.

LOL, you just need to occasionally leave your myopic woke Canuck thought Ghetto and get out more--especially to the USA, where Biden must routinely deal with the Far Left in his own party. My American friends will giggle when I tell them what you just said.

Please explain how the MAGA crowd is showing compromise. Please do.

Just like a woker to evade an issue by projecting their own bias onto other perspectives. Newsflash--both the extreme left and the extreme right almost never compromise!

Political witch hunts? There's tons of evidence, much of it in plain view.

In the USA we have a doctrine called "the presumption of innocence." Hence, the need to await the verdicts in Trump's upcoming cases.

Perhaps I'm not the one who needs to get out more....

Key word "extreme". At this point the House seems to be overrun with extreme MAGA (I'm not sure they fit in a right/left paradigm). It seems they are blocking a bill that was worked out through bipartisan efforts. They seem to only be blocking to to please dear leader. I'm open to hearing of information that contradicts that perspective

Yes, presumption of innocence. The term "witch hunt" doesn't recognize that there's a requirement for evidence in order to indict. That would be particularly true when charging someone like a former president. They can't just throw charges at someone for fun. There sure seems to be plenty of evidence, not to mention that Grand Juries were involved. Of course, the final decision is with the courts. So far things haven't gone well for the former president.

In the 1950s any political view that was not communist or leftist was welcomed by the Canadian government. WWII was against German expansionism, not Naziism.

Could that encompass inflationary policies; economically?

Sounds biased towards empire-ism to me, in the midst ... the means being rejected for the ends! Imagine enflaming talks ... as the house burns ... appears stunning to me! Fiery tongues ... then there are the flakes ... just Kohl, somewhat dark ... in the shades watching?

Ahab wins ... it all goes down in a deep heap! Then are politicians smarter or more full of desire and will to win at all costs ... human fault?
