Bret Baier – on Fox News no less – points out that most of the “best people” who Donald Trump claimed he hired, have now come out against him, and he has himself attacked them as bad people. In addition, by the end of his term, eleven of his closest associates (Steve Bannon, Tom Barrack, Elliot Broidy, Michael Cohen, Michael Flynn, Rick Gates, Paul Manafort, George Papadopoulos, George Nader, Roger Stone, Allen Weisselberg) had been charged with crimes.
Trump totally deflects by claiming that he created a great economy, and that he “defeated ISIS in 4 weeks”. Never mind that Trump is the only recent president who lost jobs (2.9 million of them!) during his administration.
During his presidency, the US trade deficit, which Trump promised to reduce, went up by over 40%. The national debt went from $14.4 trillion to $21.6 trillion, because of Trump’s huge tax cut for the wealthy. Illegal immigration into the US increased. The production of handguns increased by over 12%, and the murder rate went up.
As for his ISIS claim, if you believe that, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.
Besides his crazy tax cut for the wealthy (which drove up inflation), Trump’s only other accomplishment was overturning Roe v. Wade by getting 3 hard line conservatives into the Supreme Court, something that the majority of Americans are against.

I’d much rather have some swampland in late great safe state of Florida than a bridge in Brooklyn. “>D
Donny’s “administration” was a revolving door of hires, fires, quitters, and grifters. The Donny would not know a quality hire if he/she were carrying a sign denoting such.
