    Personally, I’m excited with this revamp of the American education system.
    Trump has announced a plan for a fully accredited online college system that’s free of inserted Ideologies & will be free for everyone.
    IMO, that in itself is a huge game changer.

    Even though I am a liberal living in San Francisco, I hope you know I appreciate your perspective. Me personally, I don't need politicians to be "honest" or "relatable," I need them to be qualified and effective. Trump has been President before and he's had some time to consider his positions, so he's qualified on that level. Whether or not he can be effective is going to be a lot about how his supporters can manage his agenda. For example, we didn't get a fix on immigration in the first Trump term and he had all three branches of government at his disposal then. We will see how he does in a do-over.

      Congress needs to "fix" the laws, but they probably never will. However, he did secure the border in his first term. Lowest number of crossings in 50 years in 2019 because of exective actions like remain in Mexico. What has been allowed to happen at the border over the last 4 years is criminal. Paying for migrants to stay in hotels in Manhattan and other cities on the taxpayers' dime is probably why he won the election.

      You should come visit with people on the border, that were working on the so-called fence. First it was being built at record speed, it wasn't just a fence and the day Biden went into office, He stopped the work and then sold the millions of dollars of materials for scrap. He should be put behind bars for his decision to waste our money. Then ironically, He then quietely started building more wall when He realized it actually was needed in places.

That was my turning point, the moment I started questioning things. It was the first crack in my perspective, and from then on, the evidence began piling up, pointing toward a fixed agenda that was hazy at first. The rest, as they say, is history. also, my last trip to costa rica I was extremely surprise how open some tico were telling me they hope Trump wins.

      For the media brainwashing Democrat followers. Educate instead of through your television set! Best explanation I have read in a long while.
      The Democratic Party needs to do alot of reflection. They put in the worst candidate I have seen in my lifetime and Americans woke up. Maybe you might get it, but I doubt it!
      This lady wrote this and it makes so much sense. Please read:
      Dear brainwashed Leftists:
      Americans have unequivocally sent you a message last night. That message is:
      You suck. We are tired of your insane ideas, your disgusting vitriol, your policies that make everything more expensive, your high taxes, your unconscionable prosecution of political enemies, your failed DEI experiments, your ridiculous histrionics, your political violence, your biased and dishonest “fact checking”, your attempts to paint our nation as everything but great, your illegal immigrant invasion, your stupid electric cars, and your obvious calls for your opponent’s assassination by telling your followers that he is the same as a mass murderer or that he will become a tyrant and suspend elections.
      You massively overplayed your hand with your shrieking doomsday predictions; calling over half the country garbage, facist, racist, sexist, ableist, xenophobic, transphobic, nazis, insurrectionalists, science deniers, low class, uneducated. You demonized masculine men as “toxic”. You gaslit anyone who wasn’t lockstep with any of your wacky beliefs. You tried to bribe black men with free money and the promise of weed…disgustingly unaware of the fact that most American men who happen to be black don’t need handouts, and don’t smoke weed. You continually lied about how good the economy was, how secure the border was…when we could all see the truth. You screamed about being for “the working man”, but you enacted policies which directly harmed them. Made life harder. Made the non wealthy poorer.
      The bumbling geriatric mental midget that you foisted upon us (quite literally the worst that DC has had to offer in the last 50 years) was so weak that there is now a full fledged war in Europe, and another in the Middle East. You lied and told us that he was at the top of his game, when anyone with a set of eyes could see differently. Millions of democrats voted for him in the primary process, yet when it became painfully obvious that the could barely function, you completely ignored those millions of people, and anointed a successor (who no one voted for) that is quite possibly the least likable politician since Hillary Clinton. All while screeching about “democracy in peril”.
      That candidate, (who literally got her political start on her knees, sleeping with a married man 30 years older than her) was a cackling disaster who couldn’t answer a single question, hold a single press conference, or be honest about what she stood for. One of the most leftist politicians of all time, who was lying about every single position that she believed in. You tried to use her as a Trojan Horse to insert your anti American agenda into the White House.
      You persecuted your political enemies with the power of a massive federal law enforcement agency. You wiretapped a presidential candidate. You used a political candidate’s paid for smorgasbord of crap to lie to federal judges. You tried to impeach a sitting president, accusing him of doing exactly what your next president actually did. You then coordinated a slew of civil suits, and bogus criminal charges to try and bankrupt or jail your political enemy. Only banana republic dictators do that.
      You used the mainstream media as your propaganda arm, in order to lie to the entire country. You used famous entertainers (the weird drama club losers from high school who play dress up and pretend) to manipulate people for votes. You turned American against American, demonizing the ones who wouldn’t fall in line. You instructed wives to lie to their husbands about voting, condescendingly believing husbands control their wives. You pulled family members apart with your rhetoric. Turned friends against each other. Divided an entire nation with your propaganda and insatiable thirst for power.
      There is only one adjective for the harm you have caused to America. And that word is…
      Evil.
      Last night, America pushed back and destroyed your plan. The foreign press is saying that the Democratic Party may never recover. Good. That party allowed itself to be infected by vile dishonest parasites who hate this country. Who, despite socialism never having worked anywhere, want to enslave this country with that failed ideology.
      Last night, We The People stood up to your bullying, your gaslighting, your lies, your propaganda, your manipulation, your pressure, and your threats, and your insanity.
      Good for us.🇺🇸

So what if Trump does questionable personal things, if his policies and actions make a real difference for the country then he's the better option. The policies of Kamala made no sense and would've made things far worse for the country. I don't think either was the ideal candidate but the better of the two won in this case.
    Up here in Canada all of this is relevant to us as it directly affects our economy, now we just need to deal with Justin Trudeau!

    You are such a Trumpist. Did not realize that you have the background and credentials to opine about the election so definitively. These are your opinions, but you speak as if it was fact. The high point was when, with a straight face, you said that Harris should be honest. Laughable, considering Trump is the biggest liar of all time. Would never consider doing business with you.
