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.

They're conflating Trump's character flaws with his political aspirations. It's easy to do with all the noise that surrounded him. Does anyone honestly believe Biden has the stones to attempt something like the Solemani take down, holding NATO accountable for their financial obligations, making the U.S. energy independent or actually address the sieve which is our southern border? Biden is regarded as a pushover by the world, and they're right. 

The system hated Trump because he was an outsider who took the grand prize without spending decades wallowing in the political mud or being anointed by the leftist media. For me, his most important legacy is solidifying the truth about media nepotism and revealing big tech for the leftist tool it is. He triggered the system (government, media, education...) into clearly defining its ideological hypocrisy, inequities, outright intolerance for differing views and overt efforts to silence them. The enemy of autonomy is no longer hidden behind political and bureaucratic curtains.

This is delusional. You're just frustrated so many people didn't like something you liked.  That doesn't mean they were conspiring. They all had different reasons for disliking him.  I mean what are you even mad about? The moderation and fact checking at Facebook and Twitter? Facebook didn't ban him until January 7! Twitter waited another day! If anything he got plenty of chances on both platforms, how can you say otherwise?
