    Johnboy, did you write this?

    And just credit it to a bogus name?

    It is a good view of what is going on. Ernie Meggisen, a Canadian, wrote the following on Donald J. Trump:


    Make no mistake....I'm not posting this for debate. I don’t want your commentary. Unfollow or unfriend me if it makes you feel better.

    Just consider this. When you think that your President Trump is a jerk; HE IS.

    He’s a New Yorker.. He’s crude and can be downright rude. Some say he's a thin-skinned, arrogant, bombastic ass. No argument, even from most republicans if they're really honest.

    He gets his feelings hurt and he’s a hot head. He hits back; harder. And he probably should Tweet less.

    But let me tell you what else he is, and if you disagree with me, that's your privilege. But in that case, my friend, you'd be DEAD WRONG!!! And here's why:


    He's a guy who DEMANDS performance. And more importantly, RESULTS!! He spent his entire life in the private sector where you either produce or get your ass fired!

    He's a guy who asks lots of questions. And the questions he asks aren’t cloaked in fancy “political” phrases; they are “Why the hell...?” questions.

    For decades the health and hospital industry has thrown away billions of face masks after one use. Trump asks, “Why are we throwing them away? Why not sterilize them and use them numerous times?” (Good question.)

    He’s the guy who got hospital ships readied in one week when it would have taken a bureaucrat weeks or months or never to get it done.

    He’s the guy who gets auto industries to restructure to build ventilators in a business that’s highly regulated by agencies that move like sloths.

    He’s the guy who restricted travel from China when the democrats and liberal media were screaming “xenophobia” and “racist.” Now they’re wanting to know why he didn’t react sooner?

    When he shut down the borders in the early days of the corona virus, the democrats screamed even LOUDER. Then the rest of the world, including the European Union, quickly restricted travel between their own member countries.

    He’s the guy who campaigned on securing the border - protecting America - in the face of screaming democrats and the liberal media. And these SAME leaders of your democrat party (both the Clintons, Chucky Schumer, Harry Reed, Barack Obama, Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi et al.) ALL were in FAVOR of constructing the wall 'UNTIL' Trump had the fortitude to actually do it!!!

    Now your comeback might be: 'Oh, he said Mexico was going to pay for it'. Does that ring a bell? Well let me quickly set you straight on this one: Have you compared the old EXTREMELY one-sided NAFTA agreement (negotiated by none other than Jimmy 'peanuts' Carter) with the NEW U.S.M.C. agreement?

    Well I have...And let me tell you this: Mexico will now end up paying much MORE for your goods than you will for theirs.. And why you might ask?? Because they're far more reliant on the U.S. than you are of them. Yes, it will take time but the bottom line is Indirectly they WILL end up paying for the wall just like Trump said all along!

    Admittedly, as a Canadian, this new USMCA is certainly not as beneficial as NAFTA was for both my country and Mexico. Previously our farmers had a huge monopoly over your farmers but 'fair is fair'.

    Has Trump made mistakes? Of course. You can't fault a person for being a human being. Only ONE perfect man walked this earth 2000 years ago, Jesus!

    Everyone I know has made mistakes, continues to make them and LEARNS from them.

    Trump has accomplished more than any U.S. President in my lifetime. He puts in 18 to 20 hour days. He isn’t hiding in his office; he’s out front - Briefing - ALL Americans almost everyday.

    According to democrats and liberal media, when he offers hope he’s lying, and when he’s straight forward he should be hopeful. It’s a no-win situation for him every day with the haters and naysayers, yet he is NOT deterred.

    I’ll take THIS kind of leadership 6 days a week and TWICE on Sunday over a “polished, nice guy” politician who has seldom or never held a real private sector job in his or her adult life, reads prepared and “written by a speech-writer” speeches from a teleprompter and answers ONLY pre-scripted questions selected for him/her prior to the open forum. (Sorry, folks, but that's EXACTLY what your previous POTUS did.)

    I am completely mystified as to why this man has been bombarded by the media and liberal electorate EVERY day since back in 2015 when he announced his run for the U.S. presidency.

    And whether you want to believe it or not, Americans, let me tell you one more thing. If you REALLY think that Hillary would have accomplished even a fraction of the things for the betterment of the American public that POTUS Trump has, you've really got your head in the sand.

    I can only wish he was MY President! - For the good of America, you'd better hope he's re-elected this November. I certainly DO!

    Nope, wasn't me but I do agree with what he says. I personally don't care for the guy but absolutely agree with his objectives and would be very pleased if we had a like minded person as PM. Sometimes you need to look beyond personality quirks when selecting a leader. Can they get the job done?

    TBH, he embarrasses the heck out of me, almost on a daily basis it seems, but I love the fact he does what he says he will do ... or at least if he CAN get it done with all the old school dickheads fighting him at every turn. And SCREW the p/c crowd!
