This evil man should be impeached as soon as possible. He is a huge disgrace to America and the world. He only wants to give benefits to rich conservative white men and wants everybody else to suffer. He's so rude to others and everything he's done so far in his awful presidency is so bad. I don't care what any of you say, if you roast me, I won't listen. Impeach him now.
Creating new jobs you can thank Obama for, Trump had the benefit of becoming President after a president that had improved the economy and unfortunately people don't understand how policy works, they take forever to come into effect, right now the only thing you can thank Trump for was the border control - germshep24
So ironic that Obama said his own impotent economy was "the best that could be done", and 'the jobs aren't coming back". Then he said Trump's economy would be a disaster. Now he is trying to take credit for it.
I will only say this Trump should not have become President and because of this both he and us have now been but into a precarious situation. Trump doesn't know anything about his job, we just have to ride the wave until his Presidency is over and hopefully in 2 years the next President can undo the damage done from his lack of knowledge. - germshep24
I don't hate Trump or anything but he definitely is controversial. You have these republicans saying "Oh yes, Donald Trump should withdraw from the Paris Agreement" and these liberals saying "No!

Not to lefties of course, but to anyone willing to step back and think about it.
