Re your parts:
Part: “That doesn’t automatically mean the he is a sane or fit person to run the country, just that he could afford to run.”
Res: I think he’s a pretty smart successful businessman, has a lot of common sense, and a billionaire, and he did not need the head aches and abuse he got from prior useless leadership. He was trying to reverse the past nonsense. We are lucky he took up the challenge. He was like millions of us out here that saw the USA in decline. Through all the presidents.
Part: “Setting aside his lack of diplomacy”
Res: We had decades of dumbass diplomacy and look at what happened to our country. And our currency.
Part: “All his claims about tariffs, and most of his claims about the economy, are unhinged.”
Res: Geez, maybe we need an unhinged person to run the country. When you fly into a fog or motor into shallow water, you turn around and go the other way.
Part: “Well, we shouldn’t be surprised as he’s a real estate salesman. Never made anything in his life.”
Res: He’s not a salesman, he’s a builder of things that have value like manufacturing. a creator of wealth. And he knows how to negotiate.
If I was president I would not care about all the other leaching countries, and give them all 100% tariffs, and we would go thru withdrawals and then feel good again. He imo is being too nice and fair. No pain no gain.
