Almost no one regrets it. It's just fake news and fake "voters". Today he would win popular vote.

Also: more Americans think the democrat AND republican party is out of touch with their concerns, compared to President Trump himself.



I voted for Trump. He's an ass and still is. And looking back, I still would vote for him. The primary issue that mattered to me was the creation of jobs. He has retained jobs thus far, and we'll see how the employment status will be in due time. But I cannot vote for Clinton because she is a political opportunistic, a liar, and too many circumstantial controversies surround her and her husband since their days in Arkansas. But the best thing about this is seeing how triggered the leftists and media as a whole has as been.



Trump can do nothing to help the economy without cutting benefits, which isn't politically viable.

The economy will not change till a crash happens.

You're acting as if leftists don't have a valid reason to dislike Trump.

I also did say "as a whole" so it was a generalization.  So if you were triggered by that, I was validated. 



Liberal Democracy isnt true Democracy anyways, unless we get to vote for our oligarchy, there is nothing to regret about.

Political opportunistic:

Trump is cutting taxes for the wealthy. He and his family will benefit greatly.

A liar:

Lock her up! - Not happening

Build the wall! (and make Mexico pay for it) - Mexico's not paying for it, US taxpayers will

Drain the swamp! - Most wealthy Cabinet that's full of lobbyists or sat on a board of a corporation, failing in transparency

Repeal and Replace Obamacare - Failed with a majority House.

All you idiots who keep saying Trump is just making himself richer are so misinformed, probably from CNN or other idiotic sources. He was made to divest from his Co. so he isn't making earnings from TI anymore. He refuses the PreZ salary, donating it every month to charity. He is literally making NOTHING as Prez when he used to make 100's of millions a year. He will end up losing a Billion in earnings being Prez. The 20% tax cut for Corps is for all businesses. Own a food truck? 20% less taxes. Have a 100 employee tool making shop? 20% cut. McDonalds? 20%. And yes big bad Exxon gets 20% too. That food truck making 3000 a week? Right now you are paying 1050 of that in Fed tax. The cut will bring that down to 450, saving that business 600 a week. You can hire another guy and still be the same as you were before money wise. Plus with the simplification aspect you don't have to pay a lawyer 1000 a year to do your taxes. That food truck now has 32,000 a year more in the owners pocket. He can buy a new car or a second food truck.
