Care to tell us some positives? Because in 4 years I've been asking for an example and haven't gotten any real answers that weren't falsehoods, logical fallacies, or outright boasting about bad things he did. The fact that you're willing to excuse all these provably bad behaviours in order to continue to support him shows a lot about what you value and I sincerely hope you'll grow out of it or you'll be shown to be the minority and not have any real political sway in the future. 

Lol, this must be the first time you have read a post of mine concerning President Trump.  I will oblige you and give you the positives that Trump supporters see in the President.  First is that he actually have tried to accomplish the things he campaign for even the most stupid, prejudice or immature.  If you notice, Trump continue to do and say things that target his political base.  He went after China, appears to go after the media and dems.  Appointed conservative judges, Tax cuts.  Has made statements and give the appearance of US first.  There are a host of other stuff but I do not want to go that far into the little things.  The key point is people see what they want to see and Trump is pretty good at getting to the base level for his supporters and detractors.  You view his behavior as bad but the people who support Trump see it as owning the Dems/liberals.  President Trump is what you consider a feedback bump from 8 years of Obama.  White America could really only take such a jump to a minority President for so long before the feedback kicked in.  Then running against a woman who was already soften by GOP interest gave us Trump.  His brand could only stand but so long before the covers are pulled away and his true self which I might add was never hidden was completely expose.  While Trump base is pretty loyal they really do not make up enough Americans to win a second term but who knows, just like any sport, an upset definitely can happen and this case happen twice.  Bidden definitely isn't a strong candidate but he doesn't have all the baggage as Hillary has so it should be interesting.  It also would be interesting if the Polls keep showing Bidden with a blowout advantage if Trump continues or find someway to bow out as his ego really cannot take a crushing loss. 

I didn't ask for 'what his supporters like', because lynching black people is something that KKK supporters approve of. I mean, what has he actually done to make the country great again? 

Going after the Dems is just bipartisan hackery

Going after China is just stupid and undiplomatic

His quests were immature in the first place, succeeding or attempting to succeed is still bad

Going after the media is unequivocally bad and shows how immature and insecure he is. It's also one of the first signs of fascism

"appointing conservative judges" is terrible, that's how we get things like reversals on human rights and progressive ideals

Tax cuts? hah! Dude, money's not the most important thing. He just made his rich friends rich at the cost of public systems

When has US ever not been US first? Also, that's not how you do diplomacy. He sucks at his job if he blatantly declares 'I come first' with every ally.

Literally none of the things you listed are good for your country, and this 'if Obama did it, it's bad' mentality shows just how immature he is. HE is bad for the country, literally everyone that isn't a US republican agrees on this point. So I ask again, what good has he ACTUALLY done for the country, not just pleasing his fervent fanbase?
