I like that he's about to start a war with Iran.
Now, full disclosure, I'm not a fan of Trump's. Nor do I think that he's a good or capable president. BUT...far be it for me to be one of those that just finds negative in everything. I think there are some positives that come from his presidency.
Primarily, it reveals how much everyone is pretty much a partisan hack and lays their true motivations bare.
From the evangelicals, who spent so many years screaming about the importance of character and values when it came to the opposition, to now supporting someone who likely couldn't walk by a church without bursting into flames...lol Worrying about what Clinton did - but granting a pass to someone who apparently was banging a inappropriate content star shortly after the birth of his child by his third wife.
To the "strict constitutionalists" - who lamented so much about the coequal branches of government and the duty of Congress for oversight when it was the "other guy" in office...but now want to thwart the very same kinds of oversight over "their guy"
To the "debt worriers" - who would cry about the debt being passed to our children and fiscal responsibility when it's the other guy - but give a pass on trillions more in debt being added when it's theirs...
...and I could keep going...
I kinda dig that we have someone that doesn't even try to mask his nonsense and provide some degree of cover for his supporters to maintain some self respect - forcing them to show where their motivations truly are.
Maybe once his 4-8 years are done - having been laid so bare - the sensible can walk away from political parties altogether and let them die in obscurity - leaving the rational amongst us to discuss the practical issues that truly face our country.
That's what I like best about Trump!
How about you? lol
Whether or not one favors his policies, he is a hard worker and he is not in this for the money. That's a change from some of what we have known in the past.

What a surprise. However, the thread asks what--for each of us--the favorite thing about the Trump presidency is.I don't believe either of those things to be true, to be honest.
I have a bunch of Facebook friends who can no longer claim the moral high ground. It's great.

For me, it is either that the president is a hard worker or that he isn't in it for the money.
Is that estimation based on his frequent golf outings or his excessive amounts of executive time?

he is a hard worker
I'll go ahead and agree with you that he works pretty hard, or at least, harder than I would be working at his age and at his income level. I also think being the president is not an easy gig, no matter who it is doing it.Whether or not one favors his policies, he is a hard worker and he is not in this for the money.

Yes, tweeting can be very hard work!
Everything he does (and doesn't do) appears to show the exact opposite. Everything he does is stripped down to the minimum: minimum reading, minimum time spent on briefings, minimum thought about anything. .
...and yet I have just read from another poster that he spends too much time communicating with the public. It cannot be true both ways at once.
