Lowered his taxes and raised ours through tariffs.
I manufacture products in the USA and most of my vendors are hurting

u/let-it-rain-sunshine Mar 07 '26
Those illegal tariffs? I hope you'll get refunded and pass that on to the consumer, but i'm not holding my breath

Those illigal tariffs got the prices passed on to the consumer.
The "refunds" would go to businesses.
It's just more class disparity.

And the classes are - the business class, who run the economy; and the rest, mostly workers. There is no middle class - that just means income and culture, without referring to the crucial issue - relationships in the work process.

Goodonya for buying local. That's a very difficult thing to do these days and anyone making a conscious decision to support the local economy deserves some good will!

u/angrymoderate09 Mar 07 '26
By "local" I mean I buy from local companies who probably buy from china.
I make physical products, so I have no clue where my bolts, knobs, glue, carpet, paint, aluminum, steel, hinges etc come from.
My type of biz has no choice but to participate in a global supply chain. But I take raw aluminum and I put it in machines and I make cool shit.
Then I sell that cool shit to film makers who make cool movies and then people around the world get to laugh/cry at their movies. It's a global supply chain. And trump is ruining it.

He is bankrupting Americans. He does bankrupting best. No one has ever seen anyone bankrupt anything so quick so fast like before. Some say he's the biggliest morally bankruptcy bankrupter to ever bankrupt anything. Some also say he exposes who the morally bankrupt ones are, so to them, he's a saviour and great bankrupt king so they worship him as such.Â

Why not appeal? Itâs no my money. 3) got us into a war that nobody asked for except BB. Wants unconditional surrender. Whereâs that battleship and Macauthur? 4) Vindictively prosecuted people whoâs job was to investigate and prosecute him( Comey, James) 5) Politicizes EVERYTHING. Trying to withhold funds from states who did not vote form him 6) Militarization of our main big cities. Costing local economies millions 7) Uses fear and intimidation for everything; ICE, Law firms, Universities all penalized for NOT doing what he wants. 8) Talks about interfering in VOTING by FEDERALIZING it. The constitution clearly sets the rules that it is a state function. 9) Likes to âmess withâ Kids( AKA EPSTEIN) 10) just being a general douchebag that nobody likes, but are afraid to cross him due to their career.

Verified Promises Kept (According to Major News Outlets)
Below is a consolidated list of promises that independent factâcheckers and major news organizations say Trump has fulfilled as of early 2026.
â 1. Pardoned Jan. 6 defendants on Day 1
PolitiFact lists this as a Promise Kept.
â 2. Extended the 2017 tax cuts
Signed into law in July 2025, fulfilling his pledge to extend tax cuts for all income levels.
â 3. âSaved TikTokâ by enabling a U.S.-investorâbacked venture
TikTok announced a new U.S. investor structure in January 2026, which PolitiFact counts as a kept promise.
â 4. Enforced hardline immigration policies
Multiple sources (PolitiFact, Fox News) report:
⢠Border crossings between ports of entry have sharply decreased
⢠Border wall construction resumed
⢠Deportation operations expanded (though not to the âmillionsâ originally promised)
â 5. Withdrew from international organizations / agreements
PolitiFact notes he fulfilled promises to withdraw from certain international bodies and agreements.
The Institute for Energy Research also documents withdrawal from the Paris Agreement and UN climate commitments.
â 6. Rolled back environmental and climate regulations
Sources list dozens of executive actions reversing climateârelated rules and pausing new regulations.
â 7. Major energyâexpansion actions
IER documents over 300 actions to expand fossil fuel production, including:
⢠Opening federal lands and waters
⢠Reversing restrictions on Alaskan energy
⢠Restarting LNG export permits
â 8. âNo tax on tipsâ (partial progress)
PolitiFact notes this is in the âCompromiseâ category â some tax changes enacted, but not fully.
Still counted as progress toward a promise.

Trump never really had policies aside from his immigration and tariff stuff. He's actually an idiot. But, the goons behind him: Vought, Bannon, Miller, etc....They DID have an agenda and it's been implemented as quickly as they could (demolish federal workforce, get rid of agencies like Dept of Education, NIH, CDC, EPA, etc., demolish regulations on polluters, the stock market, banks, and more, and of course, get rid of abortion and preferably birth control too). Oh, and they have more wonderfulness in store, such as removing voting rights from women, removing all gay rights, removing consumer rights, and of course, persecuting trans people. Project 2025 was a real shitstain of a blueprint and reversing it will take years.

Raised the prices on a bunch of stuff through tariffs costing the average American 1500 in 2025. Then the tariffs are largely deemed unconstitutional. So we paid 1500 more last year and, after all the lawsuits that will happen, none of it went to our ballooning debt.
That world class idiot basically price gouged the American people on behalf of big business. What a fraud.

Agree or disagree with these policies you have to admit he has done a lot in just one year.

More construction jobs. Drugs and overdoses down to 40 year lows. Consolidating cooperation between the US and middle and south America. Get rid of cartel kingpins with many more to come with shield America. Ended the brutal regime of Iran and its nuclear weapons. Stopping ww3 before it begins by removing Venezuela and Iran oil from China. China cannot now even afford to secure Taiwan. Stooping 8 wars including a nuclear war between India and Pakistan. Rebuilt the American military. Showed the entire world that no one tops the American military. Taken over insuring shipping from Lloyds of London who decided to not insure ships in the straight of Hormuz and is guaranteeing safe passage for ships with US navy to keep world trade open.

He really hasnât. His hype edits on Twitter showing people getting deported is bad optics, but he hasnât by any means conducted the âmass deportationsâ that he promised while campaigning.

He promised to release the RFK, JFK and Epstein Files....so he released the 2 that dont reveal hes a pedophile.
He promised to cut funding to schools. And he definitely did by functionally destroying the department of education.
Said hed withdraw us from climate agreements. And did.
Said hed fire a whole bunch of government employees. He did.
Pardon the Jan 6th traitors. Did that via autopen minutes after entering the white house.
Place sky high tariffs on everyone. Did that
Promised to make the Bush tax cuts for rich folks permanent. Did that too.

I will admit that he is losing me in his second term. But, I will never vote for the progressive left. I would only vote democrat if the progressives and democrats split and became two separate parties and the Democratic Party went back towards center. I would never ever vote progressive. So until the democrats grow a spine and distance themselves from the far left, Iâm voting red.Â

u/Joeygorgia Mar 07 '26
Not in this case, it would be conservative, progressives politics means âyes changeâ which would have the opposite of âno changeâ or conserving the status quo

Removing people in the country illegally involved people of any skin tone. The fact that most of them are brown is coincidental.

Sure it is.
Trump said he wants more people from Norway and Sweden.

If they come here legally, then yes. We'll bounce illegal white Canadians right back to their country.
The fact is, you just can't tag this to racism, no matter how hard you try. "We want stronger borders because we don't like brown people" is a ridiculous, unfounded argument.

He campaigned to remove voting.
That is currently being setup via the SAVE acts and probably ICE and Army taking ownerships of the voting booths.
So not yet done, but getting there.

Taxing yourselves more through tariffs. That was a big one that you all wanted and you got it! As a result the persistent inflation has kept interest rates higher too.
America First, you have really showcased this with your diplomacy with how you have dealt with allies.
But at least you can take pride in your country and all those heartwarming videos you will see of parents coming and surprising their kids at graduation after being away in Iran fighting for 3 years. Walking with a limp because his leg was blown off but everyone was saying thank you for your service and they get veterans discounts on some meals at local eateries. But nobody else will really know what freedom feels like - something only US people feel I think???

Imposed unnecessary taxes on Americans (tariffs), taken away womenâs rights, and is continuing the Republican tradition of gutting the federal government which is perpetually done to prove their beliefs that government doesnât help after the fact.

I believe wholeheartedly a lot of votes for Trump were due to the dysfunctionality and over the top positions of the Democratic party! Their problem is that they haven't learned and are bound to repeat it! In other words the public voted against the Dems not for Trump! That's why I think they share in the responsibility of a Ttrump administration!

u/doubtthat11 Mar 07 '26
If you are really rich he reduced your taxes to a comically degree and thoroughly destroyed all regulatory agencies such that there is almost no way a rich person can face any kind of consequence for their actions.
This scenario has happened a few times in our history, and it always ends like it did in 2008. There will be some version of that happen, just hope it isn't as bad and long lasting. The Democrat that inherites the ashes of our economy will immediately be expected to fix it.

He raised taxes on the majority of Americans through tariffs. Letâs not get it twisted. It was a tax hike. Just because his syncopates donât call it a tax increase doesnât mean itâs not. Can I claim the tariffs as an expense on my 1040? no. Canât even offset the payments.

He implemented tariffs. He released the JFK files. He did release the Eptein Files. He re-classified Cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III. He implemented a ban on biological males in women's sports. He implemented no tax on tips, overtime and social security (up to a certain limit), He designated fetanyl as a WMD. Made it illegal to perform 'gender affirming' care on kids, Expanded access to In Vitro Fertalization. Etc, etc.

u/Certain-Reward5387 Mar 08 '26
He campaigned on a strong foreign policy. He's done that. For once we are using the world's most expensive military to finally get rid of the nations blatantly saying they hate America and Israel and want to kill Americans and Israelis. We've removed Maduro, Kameini, and setting sights on Cuba now. We're working towards toppling the largest sponsor of terrorism finally (instead of giving them nuclear materials and unfreezing billions in assets like other administrations; should have done this long ago).
He's said he would support Israel. He's doing that right now.
He said he would deport illegals. Doing that as well.
He said he would crack down on drugs at the source (i.e. cartels). He's doing that. Hit multiple drug boats; threatened to go into Mexico. Mexico tightend up their own crackdown so Trump hasn't had to go in yet. But give it time and I would say we will be there or South America soon enough.
He said he would end the war between Russia and Ukraine. He has tried, but Russia wouldn't take the deal. He's got 3 more years to figure that one out.
He said we would reduce dependence on China. We have slowly started to do that through tarrifs and multiple production plants openning in my area alone. By removing smaller enemy nations (like Venezuela and Iran), we are removing assets from China and Russia and potential interference with us. My personal opinion is that it's preemptive posturing for a war with Russia or China.
He said he would stop the woke games in government policy and did that.
He said he would drop the tax on supressors and SBRs/SBSs. That has also been done (and rightly so. Supressors aren't even regulated in most of Europe. Its a hearing safety device, not some assassin's silent tool like shown in movies. Supressors are still loud - just barely hearing safe. But they protect your hearing when hunting (can't wear earplugs) and in home defence (if you've ever fired a gun indoors, you know what I am talking about). But Hollywood's movie magic has made a lot of people disillusioned with what guns and gun accessories are actually capable of anyway).
He and Elon tried to cut quite a few of the stupid government programs.
And that's just what I can name in 10 minutes. He's actually done a lot of what he said. Whether you agree with it or not is up to you. But he's already knocked out quite a laundry list of what he said he would in just over a year now. Dude is making record time.

When Donald Trump was in the Olympics, Skating for the gold, he did two Salchows and a Triple Lutz- While wearing a blindfold!
When he was in the Alps fighting Grizzly Bears, he used his magical fire beath and saved the maidens fare.
When he traveled to the year 3010, he fought the evil robot king and saved us all again.
Let's not forget he built the pyramids and beat up Kubla Khan, cuz Donald Trump doesn't take shit from anybody.
Donald Trump was born on the plant of Kryluck and came to Earth to save us from war and death and such!
Oh wait...
Nvm. That was Bryan Boitano

I fix commercial and cargo airplanes for a living. Getting replacement parts has become a nightmare because of the tarrifs. It's taking getting planes off the ground at least twice as long, and that with us have to cannibalize half the parts. If this goes on much longer, that won't be an option any more and most aircraft will be grounded. That will virtually stop civilian travel and massively increase shipping costs on goods. He did campaign on the tariffs and literally everybody who posses multiple brain cells was screaming that it would destroy the economy, and it's absolutely doing that.
