In 2016 many voters did not support either candidate and voted for Donald Trump just to keep Hillary Clinton out of the White House. When I asked people why they like Trump, that was the most common reason they gave me.
Three years later we have seen the disaster Trump's administration has been from January 20, 2017 to now. If you like Trump, what are your reasons for this at face value? My confusion is I read about him and see a man who does not know how to lead a nation, but instead only cares about money (which God hates) and absolute power (which only God has) from my POV.
Please avoid discussing the "He is not a Democrat" and "I hate Hillary Clinton" arguments. This question is strictly about Trump, not the entire Republican Party platform.
I like his policies..
I LOVE that he got us out of the Paris Climate accord and TPP, TPA and the TAA (These last three most especially) I believe in our governments sovereignty most strongly.
I believe the reworking of NAFTA to be a benefit to us, Mexico and Canada... we will see those benefits for years to come. I like also that Mexico is more committed to helping with the border issues (see illegal immigration), rather than us trying to do it all ourselves.
I like the fact he's working to walk back some regulations, as American companies are drowning in an over regulatory environment. (unlimited administration isn't something I find positive)
I feel an America first policy is important. What doesn't benefit us as a nation shouldn't be taking our tax dollars, we have very real infrastructure needs to be met.
In short, I don't believe in a 1 world government, I believe those closest to us culturally and closest to us physically are best able to govern us.. a fact I also believe about foreign governments as well. Let them govern themselves. A handful of people half a world away have no business telling my (or any) government what to do ..
I feel the policies Trump supports are best for us as a nation, minorities included, as evidenced by the African-American communities seeing their lowest unemployment rates in decades and more..
In short, I don't have to like the man - but I dearly love these policies and many many more that he also supports.
So I will vote for him, even if he's impeached and not on the ballot. He'd the best thing to happen to us in decades.
As for the trying last few years, we can all thank a democrat who doesn't believe in national sovereignty and is clawing at the last vestiges of world power as if its the sun, the moon and the stars to them.
