Trump, Obama, Biden,
Clinton…
President
Trump’s policies and accomplishments include:
·
Trump is the most
vocal pro-life presidential candidate and President ever.
·
Trump is the most
pro-Israel President ever.
·
Trump provided a
list of 25 conservative Supreme Court nominees prior to his election (so that
voters would know his stance) and has had 2 of those approved.
·
Trump believes and
promotes American exceptionalism.
·
Trump is an unreserved
proponent of religious freedom around the world.
·
Trump is an
advocate of conventional, traditional marriage.
·
Trump stands up
against the ruthless Iranian anti-America, anti-Israel regime in an attempt to
rid the Iranians of nuclear weapons. The additional benefit of the sanctions
imposed by Trump on Iran is that they significantly reduce the resources that
Iran has available for terrorist purposes throughout the world.
·
Trump has taken
steps towards de-nuclearizing North Korea that no other President has even
attempted. (It is rather incredible that Obama refused even to speak to Kim
Jong-un apparently due to the fact that he is a dictator.)
·
Trump legalized
the use of previously non-approved medications for end-of-life patients.
·
Trump has
advocated reducing cross-border illegal migration and is doing everything in
his power to effect the necessary changes including building a border wall.
·
Trump was
instrumental in having Mexico add 27,000 Mexican National Guard agents for the
purpose of stopping the flow of illegal migrants at its own southern border.
(It is the first time in modern history that Mexico has protected its own
border.)
·
Trump appointed
50 conservative judges in 3 years. (Obama appointed only 5 more judges in his
entire 8 years.)
·
Trump, prior to
the election, promised to move the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and he
has done that. (Former presidents promised the same but did nothing.)
·
Trump is directly
responsible for ensuring that NATO countries pay their previously committed fair
share of NATO costs.
·
Trump promised to
increase U.S. military presence in the world for the purpose of achieving peace
through strength (i.e. a Reagan policy).
·
Trump is
responsible for virtually or actually eliminating ISIS in Iraq (after Obama's
actions had allowed ISIS to expand).
·
Trump promised
action against Syria for chemical use against its citizens and followed through
with his promise (unlike Obama who never followed through with a similar
promise).
·
Trump implemented
the Protect Life Rule imposing financial restrictions on Planned Parenthood in
order to reduce the number of abortions. (Similar promises have been made for
3 decades by other Presidents but nothing had been done.)
·
Trump's
administration produced the lowest unemployment rate of any president in 50
years after 28 months in office at 3.6%. (Obama's was the highest of any
administration at 9.5% after 26 months.)
·
The unemployment
rate for African Americans under Trump's administration in May 2018 was 5.9%
which is the lowest rate on record.
·
GDP grew at the
annual rate of 3.4% under Trump's administration in the 3rd quarter of 2018.
·
4.6 million
Americans had been taken off food stamps in the first two years of Trump's
administration.
·
More than 5
million jobs were created in the first two years of the Trump administration.
·
284,000
manufacturing jobs were added in 2018, the most since 1997.
·
The women's
unemployment rate reached its lowest rate in 65 years.
·
Trump committed
to removing two government regulations for every new one created. (In fact, in
2018, 12 regulations were eliminated for each new one created which is the single
biggest reason for the thriving economy.
·
Trump signed the
largest scale criminal justice legislation in decades.
·
Trump recognized
that war fighters be war fighters by ensuring that they no longer have to
second guess every decision on the battle field without being charged with a
crime.
·
Trump ensured
that the U.S. has become energy independent.
·
Trump passed
legislation in 2018 that reduced drug prices for the 1st time in 46 years.
·
Trump had the
U.S. withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement which would have impaired the economy
and cost millions of American jobs.
·
Trump had the
U.S. withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
·
Trump signed the
Hong Kong Democracy Act... and warned China not to use force against the Hong
Kong uprising.
·
Trump withdrew
from the INF (Intermediate Nuclear Forces) Treaty to which China and North
Korea were not bound which then allows the U.S. to develop medium range
missiles.
·
A Veterans
Administration accountability law was passed which reduced or prevented further
abuse by the VA staff.
·
Trump ensured
that the U.S. became energy independent for the first time in 75 years.
·
Trump was responsible
for having more American hostages freed in 2 years than Obama had done in 8
years, and unlike Obama the U.S. paid no ransom in the process. (Some men had been
imprisoned for 16 years while no previous president had done anything to free
these men. You can only imagine the gratefulness of the released prisoners and
their families.)
·
Trump reduced aid
to 3 Central America countries until they assist with eliminating illegal mass
migration to the U.S.
·
Trump stood up to
China in trade negotiations as China has cheated, especially regarding
intellectual property rights, ever since they were allowed into the WTO (World
Trade Organization).
·
The greatest
transfer of American wealth has occurred in the previous 30 years to Asia and
Trump is putting an end to it. The rise in poverty in the U.S. is due
significantly to this transfer of wealth from the U.S. to China.
·
Trump was largely
responsible for the First Step Act (FSA) signed in December 2018 and designed
to reform prisons and sentencing laws in order to reduce recidivism, most
especially for black Americans, all while maintaining public safety. This is
one of the most progressive legislated justice reforms in many years.
·
Trump effected legislation
that will, for the first time in history, require hospitals to provide the
costs to patients, BEFORE the service is provided, instead of AFTER the
service. This permits patients to shop for their medical treatment.
·
Trump completed
the USMCA trade agreement with Canada and Mexico and is intending to finalize
agreements with China, South Korea, and Great Britain.
·
Trump signed an
Executive Order to ensure free speech on college campuses.
·
Trump authorized
the dangerous mission to rid the world of its most ruthless terrorist, Abu Bakr
al-Baghdadi.
·
Trump was
responsible for killing Iranian's most ruthless terrorist, General Qassem
Soleimani, who was directly responsible for having at least 609 Americans
killed.
·
Trump initiated
the Space Force as another branch of the military in order to protect assets in
space against the aggression of other countries.
·
Trump is the
first and only President to attend the "March for Life" rally in its
47-year history. (Obama, however, chose to attend the pro-abortion Planned
Parenthood rally.)
·
Trump was
instrumental in completing the Israel – United Arab Emirates Peace Treaty and
the Israel – Bahrain Peace Treaty.
·
Trump was
instrumental in having “Merry Christmas” returned to the American lexicon.
·
Trump desires to
eliminate Sanctuary Cities.
·
Trump promotes
respect for the national flag and the national anthem.
·
Trump promotes a
school voucher system with the object of improving education, most especially
for those in poor neighbourhoods with poor school systems.
·
Trump desires to
bring an end to biased and prejudicial “leftist” anti-patriotic school
education throughout the U.S.
·
Trump is not
subject to the whim and pressure of professional lobbyists.
Trump
is effective in his policies primarily because he doesn't carry the normal
political baggage associated with trying to satisfy voters. He generally does
for the country what he thinks is right and best... even if at a political cost…
and it is most often constructive.
Trump
may have less than an honourable character but he is doing constructive things
from a conservative and free market perspective. Although his personal
character may be somewhat suspect, Trump secured the evangelical Christian vote
largely because of his pro-life stance, his promise to appoint conservative
judges, and his support of Israel... all of which are important issues to the
Christian community. It is great if a President is the moral leader of the nation
but that is not the President’s primary role. A President is primarily
responsible for the security of the nation and its economic growth.
Obama,
Biden, and Hillary Clinton:
· Obama, Biden, and Clinton were part of the
most godless and faithless administration in U.S. history... being proponents
of both partial birth abortion, advocates of same-sex marriage, and removing
the reference to "God" from the Democratic platform.
· The present Democratic platform subscribes to
all of the issues described in the book of Romans Chapter 1 as to what God
abhors.
· Obama did absolutely nothing to promote black
America during his time in office. In fact, he most likely further alienated
blacks and whites through his criticism, instead of support, for police. Obama
was an advocate for the anti-American anti-western "Black Lives
Matter" movement. If he genuinely cared about blacks, he would have worked
tirelessly to reduce the killing of blacks by other blacks across the nation, but
most especially in Chicago, his own home town. He did NOTHING.
· If Obama genuinely cared about blacks, he
would have worked to reduce the abortion of black babies, and all babies.
· In his first few months in office Obama
conducted an around the world tour apologizing for what previous U.S.
administrations had done. Obama refused to concede American exceptionalism as
though all societies, countries, and cultures are the same. They are not.
· Obama, Biden, and Hillary Clinton refused to
use the term "radical Islamic terrorists" when the existence of such
individuals was blatantly obvious and highly relevant.
· Hillary Clinton and Obama were directly
responsible for the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi, Libya, including the
American Ambassador, Christopher Stevens. Hillary then lied about it to the
American people. (She did, however, tell the truth, but only to her daughter
and the President of Egypt.) This was a far worse fiasco than Watergate. No
lives were lost in Watergate.
· Obama refused to take any action against
Syria, even though he promised to do so, when Syria used chemical weapons
against its own people.
· Obama essentially betrayed the soldiers who
fought (and those who died) in Iraq by vacating Iraq so soon after they had
essentially won the war, leaving the country for the rapid rise of ISIS and the
ISIS caliphate... but it did allow Obama the opportunity to foolishly and
arrogantly boast that he had returned the military to the U.S. as promised.
· Obama was prepared to allow Iran to continue
with its intentions to eliminate Israel without doing anything whatsoever.
· Obama's administration used drones ILLEGALLY to
kill thousands of people in Pakistan, Somalia, and Yemen... including 5
American citizens.
· Obama lied to the American people when he
stated on multiple occasions with respect to the Affordable Care Act that one
could keep his doctor, keep his medical plan, and costs would be reduced in the
process. Each of the promises was a lie. "Free" or affordable health
care for all is a wonderful objective but ObamaCare is an unmitigated
financial disaster... where no attention whatsoever was given to the cost of
the program... or to reducing costs. (Obama's administration paid hundreds of
millions of dollars for the Affordable Care Act website and yet it did not work
until long after its start-up.)
· Obama used the IRS in illegal ways to control
his opponents by withholding grant tax exempt status for conservative
organizations. (i.e. the Lois Lerner and John Koskinen fiasco.)
· Obama and the Attorney General, Eric Holder,
were responsible for the illegal Operation Fast and Furious gunwalking debacle
which resulted in the death of U.S. Border Patrol Agent, Brian Terry, and the
death or injury of 150 others... and yet no one was held responsible.
· In the deal with Iran, Obama gave billions of
dollars to Iran. In exchange the U.S. received nothing in return except for
ongoing chants of "Death to Israel; death to America" and the use of
the money to develop nuclear weapons to bomb Israel and America. The deal was
negotiated by Wendy Sherman. (Incredibly, Obama used the same negotiator, Wendy
Sherman, that President Clinton used to negotiate with Kim Jong Il which
resulted in relieving of sanctions on North Korea in addition to providing
billions of dollars to North Korea used to develop nuclear weapons that are
intended to be used against the U.S.)
· The Obama administration provided a $500
million loan guarantee to Solyndra as an example of his commitment to green
energy. The company shortly thereafter went into bankruptcy. Similar loan
guarantees were provided to other solar companies which have also since gone
bankrupt.
· Obama authorized the release of terrorists
from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba who admitted that they will return to killing
Americans.
· The media have accused the Trump
administration of housing illegal migrant children in cages. What the media
fail to acknowledge is that the Obama administration built the cages in 2014 to
house illegal migrant children. Trump's administration did NOT build the cages.
· Obama promised to have the most transparent
administration of any president and yet most experts believe that his
administration was likely the least transparent of any president.
· Obama's administration spied on American
citizens including James Rosen of FOX and Sharyl Atkinson of CBS. This was
illegal and an abuse of power. No one was held accountable.
· As Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton had no
singular accomplishment and yet, with the help of her husband, she extracted an
enormous amount of money from Americans and foreigners which resulted directly from
her position within the government.
· Obama spoke eloquently that we are to be our
brother's keeper and yet Obama's half-brother, who lived in a slum in Nairobi,
received no assistance from Obama. Obama's half-brother telephoned Dinesh
D'Souza in the U.S. to ask for funds so that one of his relatives could have
dental work. Obama was a total hypocrite in literally NOT being his literal own
brother's keeper.
· Five days before the 2008 election, Obama
promised to radically transform America. If one genuinely loves one's country,
one doesn't commit to transforming it. If one has to transform one's country
then one doesn't love one's country. One works to change it for the better...
but one doesn't attempt to radically transform it to one's own personal, but
warped view, of utopia. (If you genuinely love your wife, you don't work to
radically transform her.) Obama did not love his country and worked to level it
with all other countries consistent with his own father's intention who
despised the influence of the west and of colonialism.
· As Senator, Biden was the principle architect
for what is often known as the 1994 Biden Crime Law which he now admits was a
mistake as it wrongly and adversely impacted countless blacks with
incarceration.
· As Senator, in 1994 Biden sponsored the
Violence Against Women Act… but paradoxically he has since been accused himself
of sexual assault by Lucy Flores and Tara Reade.
· V.P. Biden has been in politics for 47 years,
including 36 years as a U.S. Senator, and 8 years as Vice-President of the United
States. He has no executive experience which is critical to governing a nation.
· Biden intends to eliminate the petrochemical
industry over a 15-year period. Unless most of the remainder of the world
follows, such a plan would literally destroy the U.S. economy. Biden also
ignores the fact that petrochemicals are used to produce millions of different
products.
· Biden has been unable to satisfactorily address
concerns pertaining to his family’s receipt of Chinese and Ukrainian financial
payments. This should be a concern to anyone who genuinely cares about
democracy, including Democrats.
Obama,
Biden, and Clinton are not true liberals, they are leftists.
Obama's
political and life philosophy was influenced by Saul Alinsky and Jeremiah
Wright... and most likely also by Bill Ayers, who was a personal friend of
Hillary Clinton. Ayers was the founder of the Communist revolutionary group,
the Weather Underground. He bombed police buildings, the Capitol, and the
Pentagon. His girlfriend was killed when she tried to assemble a bomb. These
are bad guys by any standard.
Trump's character may be less honourable than many, but given that there were only two choices, Clinton and Trump, in the 2016 election and only two choices in the 2020 election, Biden and Trump, Trump represents by far the best choice for all the reasons mentioned.
