However, he wanted to be loved by the people, which is a giant step up from what we currently have. The proof is in the pudding. Outside of the establishment who were relentless in attacking him, almost every facet of our lives was better under Trump. I will admit that it could have easily gone sideways with Trump, but he was constantly checked by his administration, which made for the best outcome for us. I care about that way more than the perceived threat that was overexaggerated by the media for their own benefit. Look at how he was growing in popularity in lower class and minority communities. I believe with one more year, Trump would have dominated the Black and Hispanic vote.

You guys love to talk about Trump's narcissism while ignoring literally EVERYONE else in the establishment with the exact same characteristic. Their narcissism is sanctioned, and Trump's isn't. I'd take Trump over this ALL day. You know the worst part about listening to guys like Mike and Marty wax on about Trump to me? We could control Trump. We did control Trump. How do we control the establishment? We vote, right? Lol.

The trouble with Trump's narcissism is that it went to the point of not being able to accept the fact that he lost the election.  He's so ashamed he lost the election that he's willing to tear the country apart over it.   That's one of the worst things a President can do- to tell his supporters that their vote doesn't count and that the election was stolen.   Ronald Reagan stood for things, but he never accused the other side of being evil.  What are Trump's supporters supposed to do when they are convinced that the Presidency has been stolen by evil people?
