Nobody is paying me. These things I speak of are real and well known. They are reported by the mainstream media as well as the left and right media. You won't read about it on oann.

American's are free to vote as they choose, and also discuss issues if they choose.

> Let's be friends - I like my president.

We are friends, at least in a kind of digital way. If I could I would shake your hand but I don't think that is going to happen.

You asked me a week or so ago if I was American and I started writing other things and forgot to answer that. I have friends and family in the US. Mostly around Santa Rosa and Seattle.

I understand you like your president and you are free to like (or not) anybody at all.

I have an uncle Bob who is just like Trump. I like him but would never vote for him in any kind of election. He is a well liked person and I don't know if others in my family would vote (if he were running in some election) for him but we are all free to make our choice based on whatever we choose to base it on.

He is OK, he's a politician so..

I don't think you need Donald Trump to get what you need from your government but I am glad you are getting something.

Donald Trumps complete lack of a national plan around coronavirus comes to mind, along with his disregard for any kind of science.

The curruption of the current WH and DOJ is another thing that needs work.

> Trump doesn't paint an evil picture of Democrats doing ridiculous things.

His whole campaign is based on the evil that democrats will do if elected!

> So with that being said, how can anyone judge Trump for... what is it now?

You are living in Donald Trumps America now. He is not responsible for things like the coronavirus or the current civil unrest but he is reponsible for his response to it.

Trump has his advisors. Ivana, Jared and many more so I am sure he will find a way to where he is going.
