Additional trump turds:
- Trying to cause WW3 through poor geopolitical management
Didn't start any new wars. Started a trade war. De-escalated tensions in Ukraine and North Korea, which the exiting admin said where the biggest threats. Media propaganda claimed he was potentially started WW3 with China, but the experts have all assessed the timeline for potential war with China to have moved from 2040 under Trump to 2025 under Biden...

- Approving infinite corporate welfare through eternal tax exemptions
Traditional corporate tax reduction which boosts economic growth domestically, rather than Biden with infinite welfare tax payer money and tax exemptions for nominally doing 'green' things (don't actually have to affect global warming or economic growth) and also helping push ESG which has nothing to do with environment or sustainability.

- Corrupt appointments at every level, do favors for Trump (and cabinet) get appointments.
For the Cabinet it was people that talked positively about Trump then he went with establishment recommendations for all non-political and admin appointments. Many of which were terrible.
He did try to ban activists and lobby groups from talking to him but they then went to the advisors and other appointments. Most of them didn't do much for Trump rather the political people at the start that supported his campaign.

- Lies constantly and is super sketchy around (his own) children
Thats a real mainstream establishment position. 80% of the time he wasn't lying they just used propaganda against him when you look into it. 20% of the time he had no clue what he was talking about and didn't want to admit it. He said his daughter was attractive once in a joking fashion vs Biden allegedly molesting his daughter and confirming the diary was real.
Trump claimed everything was fake news, unfortunately most journalists retrospectively were in fact super dodgy. FBI was just straight up planting stories from Clinton / Biden and manipulating social media.
I was disappointed as someone that hated Trump way before he was president about the extent that they just made up bs about him for click bait and propaganda.

- literally does not do press briefings for a 300+ day period (doesn't even let them ask any questions)
This is a weird point as you can look up how many briefings he did and it was consistent with Obama. It was pushed as propaganda to defend sleepy Joe and his approach to not doing real briefings. In several briefings where Trump walked out on them, they were just shouting the same question and not accepting answers. Its the old strategy of asking 'When did you stop beating your wife?", They just kept asking 'why won't you disavow white supremacists?" which he is on the record of doing 50 times, but they just keep asking it so they can write articles about it.

- Just ignores other world leaders and messes up relations across the board (Iran, most of Europe except the authoritarian regimes). But he talked with a dictator in North Korea that one time which means everything is okay.
He talked with world leaders just he didn't play nice with many of them, who now miss him because Joe Biden's handlers don't let him talk about any real issues. Watching Macron in despair when he was trying to ask Biden questions was hilarious. Trump's problem was he had no clue who most world leaders were before becoming president. Biden is just confused and senile.
The Iran nuclear deal and the new deal are sketchy, it was a pinky promise they wouldn't develop nukes whilst knowing that they were. The new deal is to let them develop nukes but Saudis can have nukes too.

- Just signs whatever is put on his desk
That is clearly false, as Democrats claimed he wasn't approving their bills and demands and wasn't working with them half the time. He did approve extra spending for COVID19 as it was the popularist thing to do even though the bills (like so many US spending bills) were dodgy where they add mountains of extra amendments for spending last second. Joe Biden has said that he literally just signs it if it is on his desk, like when they do missile strikes on countries in Africa and Middle east, he doesn't even read it.

True. Only in during the third year did he actually start listening to broader groups of people and start proposing good policies. It was like 2-3 years wasted, though he was also under a historic level of attack by the establishment with fake Russia investigations.

- Requested his supporters to march on the capital, and his supporters were dumb enough to ensure Jan 6 riot (even if only by following some bad actors like the sheep they are)
He asked for peaceful protest, unless you think that is code for a riot. Most were peaceful if you watch the footage. There 100+ federal operatives and confidential sources in the people initially breaking barriers and pushing people to enter the building. On the other side capital police let people in and even guided them through. Like with several other cases, if there were no federal agents and confidential human sources involved would the riot even have taken place, on the other side would people have gone in if the doors weren't opened and they were guided by capital police? The Q Shaman had a police guide and escort who lead him through.
The people were dumb for falling for entrapment. There were many Trump supporters telling people not to do it and that it was a fed trap. The problem is once you get a crowd moving people don't think properly.

The only person killed was a Trump supporter who was shot. The main damage was shitting on Pelosi's desk.
Trump does have poor judgment with tweets though. Meanwhile democrats encouraged billions in damage in riots and 30+ people died. No so much of an excuse but as context.

- Kicked transgender people out of armed forces because they might use their service to help afford medical treatment
I was initially against this policy, but now seeing how Biden implemented it, support it. The people get like 100k+ in Transition support and can get consecutive allowances for medical leave for the surgeries up to a year off. So they aren't serving and cost a fortune. Meanwhile the VA denies vets for treatments and services where-ever they can... It is terrible for moral and combat effectiveness. There is no medical evidence that its life saving as they claim, the actual journals show risk of suicide remains the same or goes up.
Go on T hormones won't even make women more combat effective as crushing estrogen has dangerous neurological effects and accelerates osteoarthritis exponentially within 2 years. If it takes 1 year of treatment that means maybe 1 year of service before the VA has to pay for all the medical complications.
For men, blocking testosterone will lower combat effectiveness and they may no longer qualify for front line positions after a few years.
Democrats giving medical treatment through the army rather than rethinking the main medical system should be obviously absurd.
Trump had some ideas for medical system reform but they were pretty small. Biden literally laughed when elected, people were dumb for thinking he would pass universal health care. Trump didn't run on that.

- Doesn't care about human impact on the earth's climate, and actively worked to sabotage existing agreements because they were made under a black guy's watch
Moving manufacturing back to the US, where there are stricter emission standards would have reduced emissions far more than ignoring 80% of actual emissions.
The solar panels are produced with coal and end up in land fill before having a net negative carbon impact. Same with the wind turbines.
The fourth gen modular nuclear reactors may actually reduce emissions but that is neither a Biden nor Trump initiative.

- Pulled out of nuclear agreement with Iran unilaterally without probable cause because the agreement was made under a black guy's watch
If you have no inspectors and you know they are enriching beyond what they need for power, its not a very good deal. Trump nearly had multilateral peace agreements with Israel and multiple countries whilst consolidating influence with the Saudis.
If Iran is ignoring the terms of the previous weak deal, i am not expert enough to know why its a problem to scrap the deal. The only advantage was potentially possibly gaining access to their resources in return for turning a blind eye on their nuclear program.
I would have criticized Trump's Yemen policy but its was an establishment position which Biden supports, so kinda not weird that you didn't mention it.

- Requested more security to protect himself and his supporters on Jan. 6th
The previous Capital police chief said that wasn't the case. More barriers, more police and potentially national guard were requested to prevent riots. All rejected, because Pelsoi claimed it would affect the optics.
As in... the optics of the planned riot. Pelosi had a news crew there to film her reaction and three letter agents had over 100 people there at the start. Kind of weird, almost like it was planned for optics.
