It is AWESOME to have a real person in office that is a REAL President. President Trump is NOT afraid to tell people how it really is. He is still trying to fix the mess from Biden and Harris. Would LOVE to see Trump get re-elected in 2028. Go Trump go. You are Americas HERO. Keep up the GOOD JOB.

It's great having a President in the White House instead of a mummy.

I imagine it's a function of media. Virtually all the media is controlled by the likes of blackrock and this is reflected in their coverage of Trump and in the opinions of their viewers. He's trying to oust the corporate predators and saboteurs which have nearly brought this country to its knees.

I don't like the tariffs, but you can't argue that he's not doing exactly what he said he was going to do. KMIZ won't report it, but look at the border. That alone should be enough for everyone's approval.

He is a BIG BULLY I Have NEVER seen so many African American people afraid for their lives. They are not allowed to celebrate being black but bragged about getting their vote. Plus he makes fun of any one including Kamala Harris...she was made into a Mung Beetle-which originated in Africa!!

I'm so sorry this is the country's direction. The ones like myself will continue speaking up. It's frustrating and as a white woman, I'm in distress. I fit the box of what the administration doesn't like. So scary. Maybe I shouldn't say that here but still....it's how I feel and I'm so unhappy.

He has a perverted view of his constitutional powers and a complete disregard for human rights

He has taken a wrecking ball to America. He has kept NO promises about lowering grocery prices, inflation, drug prices, etc. He needs to quit blaming others for his failures and take responsibility like an adult, if that's possible for him. Worst President ever in my opinion.

Attempts to circumvent the Constitution, ignoring the separation of the three branches, disrespecting the judicial system and people's rights, punishing anyone who disagrees with him, chaos with the tariff yo-yoing, belittling people, trying to white wash our history........

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

> "Trump and his goons" Goons? It's 2025. Trump is a lot of things, but comparing he and his team continued success to a childish name, you need better sources of your insults. For example, stop using The Rolling Stone as a primary news source.

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.

Biden tactics were destroying the world's economies.

The U.S. dollar dominates the world economy due to its role as the primary reserve currency, backed by the massive U.S. economy, unmatched financial market liquidity, and historical inertia since the 1944 Bretton Woods system. It facilitates 88% of global exchange transactions, 54% of trade

Incidentally, our previous president has not acquired enough money to build his presidential library, not even enough money for a presidential magazine stand.

I didn't but have total support for the vast majority of what he has accomplished and is trying to accomplish. The country was harmed greatly by the Democrats, they plundered our wealth, Republicans also played a hand. No more.

Do a little research on how our national debt has grown under republican presidents compared to democrats. Also see how Reagan and "trickle down economics" is what put us on the path to financial ruin while creating the tremendous wealth inequality we see today.

Going back nearly fifty years, when I was in the military, and Carter was the president, the military was starving. As an E-6 with a wife and two children, legally, I qualified for food stamps. Instead, I got a part-time job. Carter, was a far better president than Obama, and Biden. Facts are tough.

You got tired of that with 8 years of Obama and 4 years of Biden. That's over, now.
