I think you will understand eventually.
We'll see who's ultimately right in four years.
Your last administration and congress tried to get a tighter grip on immigration, but it got blocked.
The "concessions" from Canada and Mexico that they made in order to avoid the tariffs were planned since end of last year.
> stop letting countries take advantage of us economically
That's _incredibly_ rich coming from a US citizen.
A country that has been continuously waging war, has been spying on their allies privately and publicly at a massive scale, is living on an ever increasing private and public debt, has been strongarming smaller countries, including allies and including neutral countries, in order to adhere to their economic and legal demands. And is primarily responsible for two of the largest economic crisis in recent history.
Give me a break...
> cut stupid government waste
Cutting waste is always good. That's common sense. Your administration hasn't however proven that they will do that in any meaningful way so far. I would have started with the 100mio in golf outings or the massive "defense" budget.
From here all of this theater looks like regular old corruption.
> cut out the identity politics and DEI wasteful bullshit
I'm not familiar with how "DEI wasteful bullshit" actually manifests. What I'm however familiar with is that this and other acronyms are constantly used to lie, distract and divide. Shortly after recent disasters "DEI" was blamed by your admin before any proper analysis could even be made. That's shameful behavior and not something to be proud of.
You have a trade deficit, because you're spending more than you can afford to a degree that you crashed the global economy. And have the audacity to say that your allies are taking advantage of you.
The reason nobody has been calling it out, is because financial institutions are licking their fingers from the massive debt Americans accumulate. But everyone knows that the next crash will happen and everyone knows where it will originate from _again_.
Trump is probably right when he repeatedly said that the US in in decline. But what he's doing is shifting the blame to foreigners instead of pointing the finger to where it hurts.
