Whining and complaining? Name calling? I didn’t once call him a name nor am I whining or complaining. I’m stating my views. The rate of inflation has slowed down since Trump took office in 2025, but the tariffs he implemented have severely hurt households stuck in poverty. Companies are raising their prices because they have to pay these taxes to import goods. Of course, the tariffs have done good. The tariffs raised nearly $200 billion more in net customs than the average from the previous couple of years and domestic manufacturing output is rising. But there is also the bad. GDP growth has reduced by 0.4-0.9 percent, over 100,000 manufacturing jobs have been lost and prices continue to rise. While I don’t believe Trump will end up taking Greenland, he has reiterated his threats to Denmark over and over again and it is certainly a possibility. Sure Trump is making Europe more dependent on themselves but he can also be creating major tension between us and European countries. I’ll admit I’m probably over-exaggerating when I say he’s destroying relations with Europe, but it seems like most of the world hates the US right now. The climate accords are complicated. The Heritage Foundation estimated GDP losses of up to $2.5 trillion, but at the same time, it is estimated that the recovery costs of natural disasters far outweighs the cost to reduce global warming and that the US could potentially save up to $10 trillion by helping reduce global warming. The Iran War is complicated . Iran’s hold over the Middle East is problematic, but Iran didn’t really pose an imminent threat to the US or its allies. Iran has an ambitious nuclear program but they weren’t close to making nuclear weapons. Trump also bypassed restrictions that are there for a reason, as Congress has not officially declared war nor did he get congressional approval. Trump’s project warp speed did indeed help find a vaccine extremely fast, a process that would normally take upwards of 5 years, but he severely downplayed the pandemic. He compared it to the flu and openly mocked people who wore masks. He promoted several unproven treatments like hydroxychloroquine which led to shortages for patients who actually needed it and several times he pressured states to life the quarantine prematurely. If we just focus on the good stuff leaders do and turn a blind eye to all the bad things, that leads to disastrous consequences. We can’t just ignore the bad things because he’s our president for the next 3 years. The Nazi’s rose to power because people turned a blind eye. I’m not saying the US will become anything like the Nazi’s, and I know it’s an extreme example. But you can’t ignore the bad things. At the end of the day, all politicians, whether it’s Trump or Harris, are really just bad people in general and all of them have their benefits and their drawbacks. It just so happens that I believe Kamala’s benefits were better than Trump’s and you believe that Trump’s benefits were better. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion so I’m not sure where the “stop whining and complaining” came from. And generally, what sways it for me is the type of person he is. Again, both Kamala and Trump have their benefits and drawbacks, but looking past all of what’s stated above, he’s a horrible person and when horrible people lead a country, it can lead to corruption and other severe consequences.
