2020 Poll: Is Trump Better or WORSE than you expected????

Trump is a lot worse than I expected. And I expected nothing good from him.

But worse than Trump are all the Trumpists and Republicans who back that idiot.

DJT is a complete trainwreck. Far worse than I could have ever imagined.

I knew Trump would be bad. I didn't imagine anyone could be this bad and still hold onto 35% of the vote.

In speaking: worse

In action: much better

I had low expectations simply due to his inexperience in politics and objectively mediocre career. But he has been far worse than I expected. He is unwilling to learn, exceptionally lazy, ignorant, divisive, and has few policy goals and no plan to achieve them.

A little worse than I expected but the democrats are much worse. I had hope they would have addressed the reasons why they lost which includes HRC's contempt for working people. Instead they engeged in xenophobic hysteria about Russia and wasted taxpayer money on impeachment.

We knew he wasn't qualified. Never elected to anything in his life and never represented or governed anything.

We knew he filed for bankruptcy numerous times.

We knew he was a liar from his opening speech when he announced his candidacy.

We knew he wasn't that bright from the Apprentice.

We knew he had racial issues (sued twice by the Department of Justice for discrimination against blacks, along with taking out full page ads calling for the execution of 5 teenagers of color who were innocent of rape and battery....aka the Central Park 5)

Since becoming president he has proven he is a complete idiot and racist, who is totally incompetent.

He is a complete disaster.

He managed to have the 1918 pandemic, the Great Depression and the 1968 riots.....all reoccur at the same time.

He is a complete and total disaster.

lol....yeah Trump has been a real champion of the working class! lol lol

Put it this way...I used to the George W was bad. Now he seems like a gentleman who was just a little misguided. Trump has Completely reshaped my perception of abysmal.

Even though trump is dishonest and corrupt, in my lifetime, trump stands up to Military Industrial Complex more than any other president. We can look back since WW2, the most rational choice would have been acting as an Isolationist. U.S. had no chance to win Korean Conflict. Then Soviet Union &/or People's Republic of China would not allow U.S. to be victorious. Same for Viet Nam. Lebanon, 1983 was the last time U.S. had permanent ground troops near Israel. That did not work out well. Reagan's Contra v. Sandinistas war did not go well. Reagan's invasion of Grenada was stupid. H.W. Bush invaded Panama which was stupid. H.W. Bush got U.S. involved in conflict which lead to Black Hawk Down on Clinton's watch. Saddam Hussein was a C.I.A. stooge, then former C.I.A. man H.W. Bush threw S. Hussein away. S. Hussein did not go away quietly, thus Gulf War. U.S. has nothing to show for for W. Bush's Iraq War and War in Afghanistan. W. Bush's, Obama's and trump's drone wars in Africa is not helping anyone except weapon contractors. I like trump cutting military aid to Europe. I like trump's plans to cut U.S. troops in Europe. I like that trump 100% stood up to John Bolton. I like that trump fires admirals & generals who attempt to push him around. If historians are able to prove trump has reduced U.S.' imperialism due to trump acting as Putin's Manchurian figure, I will have complex thoughts on the matter. Out of the four more recent Democrat presidents, only James E. Carter came anywhere close to standing up to Military Industrial Complex.

I'll be honest Trump has actually been better than I expected. The narcissistic crap and offensive tweets are bad but they were all expected. I was very worried about him getting us wrapped into a foreign debacle of some sort but he has been good about avoiding messy entanglements. Although as a whole his foreign policy leaves a lot to be desired. Still would never vote for him and believe he is completely unfit for the job.

What I have been hugely shocked at is the democrat's response. Rather than try to be responsible and reasonable just let him show off what a jerk he is they've risen to match his madness at every turn. I look at the past few years, especially the past 6 months and its just exhausting. They've done whatever they could to discredit or work against from this hysteria over the Mueller Report, Impeachment, the Steel Dossier, so many I don't feel like mentioning. They could have avoided a month-long government shutdown and looked like adults just by giving him what equates to a drop in the bucket for the border wall. Now they've politicized the Covid response to a point where they've freaked half the country out into thinking they will die which has destroyed a very strong economy.

Trump has easily been the worst president of my lifetime but the democratic party response to him has been extremely disappointing. It almost like they looked at Republican insanity of 8 years ago when there were the Tea Party and the red side was pissed off and angry about everything but nothing specific and said we're going in that direction now.

He's been much crazier than I expected. I thought all his crazy tweets and talk before the election was to attract attention and that he'd calm down and act presidential after the election. Boy, was I wrong!

He's terrible, and will be recognized as the accelerant that ended the R party.

He is pretty much exactly who I thought he was and I have not really been surprised by any of the terrible things he has done or caused. Could you imagine having a cohesive plan to Covid-19 from the start?

What truly amazes me is how stupid almost half of all Americans are. Over 45% of Americans were stupid enough to vote for this thieving con man (maybe only 35% if you take into account the "votes" provided by Russian hackers). America needs to rid itself of the welfare states like Mississippi, Alabama, West Virginia, etc red states etc.. We can't afford to subsidize entire states populated with morons. Let them become their own little banana shitehole country. See how fast Moscow Mitch runs to the Kremlin to replace the gravy train that welfare Kentucky gets now thanks to the generosity of real America. The educated people who are unfortunate enough to have wingnutters hillbillies for neighbors are welcome to emigrate to the good states and leave the dumass people behind to rot in their trailers.

I present to you the attitude that led to Trump being elected......

You have it backwards. It wasn't an 'attitude' of others that lead to Trump. That is like victim blaming. Idiots are who voted for Trump full stop. Nobody forced those idiots to be idiots or vote for Trump.

I will second the thought that in speaking he is worse than I thought he would be. In action, far better. Definitely Trump 2020.

The idiots who voted for trump are the very ones that he loves to victimize. He has a long and deep career of stealing from contractors, abusing low-level employees, hiring illegal immigrants, disrespecting servicemen, preying on women and teen-aged girls, not paying taxes owed. He loves to leech off of his supporters but hates them with a passion.
