Donald Trump is the best president since Ronald Reagan. And the real “buffoons'” are the people who can’t stop criticising him. Poor old Compton can knock himself out ‘despising’ Donald Trump, but who cares? How many people have ever heard of a sad old blogger called Everald Compton? Certainly not the most powerful man in the world.

Following Donald Trump’s European talks, Russia, the U.S and Israel now have an arrangement that will stop hostilities between Israel and Syria, leading towards the end of the civil war in Syria. Assad will remain, it will have to accepted the West backed the wrong side in Syria. President Trump dropped support for the Islamic ‘rebels’ (terrorists) a month ago. It is expected that a “final onslaught” from the Syrian army and the Russian air force will soon finish them off.

Go Donald Trump! Wherever the man goes; whatever he does, he is a winner.

An aside for UN-admirers: after Assad has been hammered for supposedly using chemical weapons, the United Nations now has Syria - yes Syria - as the rotating presidency of the Conference on Disarmament.

I agree with Everard calling the trumpehfuhrer a destroyer. There is nothing remotely positive about what he is doing, and, even worse, there are NO positive cultural or religious phenomenon remaining upon which to build/create a truly humanizing future - zilch.

He represents and is definitely amplifying and even turbo-charging all of the negative or destructive elements of this dark time in what little still remains of human civilization after the cultural devastation caused by the two world wars.

A process of cultural and ecological devastation that was especially turbo-charged during the last 30-40 years. A process that was amplified by two factors namely the powerful technologies now available, and the huge increase in the human population. In the mid-eighties there was only 4 billion human beings.

This essay is about the cultural devastation wrought by the two world wars, and the now-time collective situation

This essay describes the situation we are now in

http://www.da-peace.org/excerpt-two-is-not-peace

The 100 or so brief summary statements also describe the situation.

Under the trumpenfuhrer, all of these negative situations/scenarios are going to be turbo-charged.

Dear Kirby483,

Your list is pure Cult of Putin's Puppet stuff.

Let's address your first claim. “The stock market is at an all-time high”. It has been at a all time high during a presidency for every bloody president since Ford. That is how markets work.

What is a better indicator is the percentage growth. This link gives a good summary of the last few presidents. Trump is on par with Obama at 22.2% this far into his term. We will need to revisit it closer to the end of his term to properly assess his influence.

Clinton of course was a standout followed closely by Obama. Republicans usually do not fare well in economic terms but Reagan did better than most.

But let's cut to the chase. At this stage of his presidency Obama had overseen a 26.7% rise in the Dow while Trump has seen a 22.8%.

Trump is hardly a standout.

I'm happy to look at another of your claims if you wish. Pick one and let's explore.

Quite an impressive list of alleged Trump achievements above.

Unfortunately most of the economic and employment ones are based on staistics that start from 2010 - years before Trump and based on programmes started under the previous administration, but of course he will always take all the credit for himself but none of the blame.

There are many things missing from that list, such as increases in poverty and homelessness due to cuts in welfare and access to health insurance and achieving the highest youth poverty in the whole indistrial world, but that doesn't bother those who like to sit back and fondle themselves over everything he says and does.

Keep calling critics "lefties" because there's nobody further to the right than Trump, especially since he has gladly embraced neo-Nazis and White Sumpremacists into the fold of his supporters.

His lies over the true cost of NATO were passed over by most of the media and his Korean stunt achieved practically nothing up front for the USA but his diplomatic failures are part of a whole other story.
