They are all in it for their own personal power and wealth rather than making good on promises that would have helped make our Country greater than it has ever been before.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will always speak positively of and defend your unselfish efforts to promote capitalism, free enterprise, free speech, the right to keep and bear arms, religious freedom, less government, and volunteerism, while at the same time exposing corruption and wastefulness. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help me remind others of your accomplishments, I will recap some of the things that occurred during (and because of) your presidency that I applaud and have certainly made a long lasting, very positive impact on the people of our Country including me: &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1) Appointed three conservative Supreme Court Justices, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Barrett, each possessing outstanding judicial accomplishments and service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2) Completed an additional 500 miles of border wall on our Nation\u2019s southern border<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3) Signed the biggest tax cuts and reforms in the history of our Country<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4) Continued to bring home troops from foreign soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5) First President in recent history to not get us into another endless war<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6) Engineered and spear headed \u2018Operation Warp Speed\u2019 resulting in the creation of a safe China virus vaccine in record time<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7) Brought back to America tens of thousands of jobs resulting in the lowest unemployment rates for Blacks, Hispanics and Asians in the Country\u2019s history<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>8) Lowered youth, women and veterans unemployment rates to the lowest in decades&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>9) Reduced the number of people by 3.9 million on food stamps from an all-time high in 2016 (last year of the Obama administration)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10) Oversaw the increase in the average household income to the highest ever recorded<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>11) Oversaw the creation of more than 400,000 manufacturing jobs and the manufacturing jobs growing at a faster rate in more than three decades<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>12) Negotiated with NATO members to pay their fair share of the NATO budget<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>13) Brokered four Arab country peace agreements with Israel and moved our embassy to Jerusalem, something that the last several presidents said they were going to do, but never followed through on their promises<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>14) Signed a prison reform act that ended minority discrimination by the court system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>15) Signed into law, \u2018Right to Try\u2019 legislation allowing gravely ill patients the opportunity to bypass the FDA (Federal Drug Administration) for experimental treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>16) Signed executive orders instructing HHS (Health and Human Services) to take steps to lower costs on prescription medication, including insulin &amp; epinephrin (antihistamines)\u2026earning you recognition for doing more than any other President to lower drug costs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>17) Withdrew America from the Iran nuclear deal made during the Obama Presidency with the Supreme Ruler of Iran that continues to promote \u2018death to America\u2019 and the complete and total annihilation of Israel<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>18) Withdrew from the Paris Climate Accord, a very damaging agreement to our American economy, penalizing into submission American businesses involved in the oil and coal industries, including fracking\u2026.. driving up the cost of these fuels for the American consumer while allowing China and India to continue spewing out pollution into the air unabated and without consequence.&nbsp; I sure did like our low gas prices at the pump!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>19) Worked to promote school choice, giving students and families options in K-12 education<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>20) Standing as thee most pro-life president in our Nation\u2019s history working tiressly to prevent tax payer dollars from flowing to Planned Parenthood, the Nation\u2019s largest abortion provider<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>21) Pressured the Mexican government to take a more aggressive approach to slowing the flow of migrants north to America overwhelming the state and local governments along our southern border<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>22) You were thee most transparent president ever\u2026under investigation for and harassed by the Democrats, the media, tech giants and \u2018RINOs\u2019 (Republican In Name Only) from before your election through this very day \u2026. (remember the phony Russian hoax that cost this Country millions of dollars and sowed so many seeds of discord only to conclude that there was no collusion on your part, but rather by Hillary Clinton instead?). &nbsp; And what about the lack of reporting on the Hunter Biden \u2018pay to play\u2019 scandal that involved our new President Joe, referred to in Hunter\u2019s emails as the \u2018BIG GUY\u2019?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>23) It is my opinion and the opinion of millions of other Americans, that the \u2018swamp dwellers\u2019 are so afraid of being discovered or found out what their own selfish motives are (especially as it pertains to their own personal interests in China) that they were compelled to impeach you, not once, but twice, for uncovering all of the filth, scum, and excrement that here to for has called Washington, DC its home!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank-you President Trump, for doing an outstanding job while you served America as its President.&nbsp; Millions upon millions of its citizenry appreciate you and will certainly, like me defend your record of accomplishments that ocurred during your four years of service\u2026. and we will most certainly vote for you the next time you run for President!!! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With appreciation and sincere gratitude,&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>James M.
