I'm just another random, nobody who's commenting on another video, but, with all my heart, you made my day, my month, and my first graduation with of course more expected in my future.

      Sandia Delli Gatti He’s talking about Obama, not Trump. Trump is the one who taxed families, took away a lot of people’s healthcare, food stamps, etc.
      The man who gave big corporations all sorts of money so they could inflate the stock market.
      The one who caused a trade war that left Americans paying for Chinese tariffs. A trade war that caused many farmers to end up in bad situations, some who lost their livelihoods and their farms.
      The man who closed down the government, costing lots of people their jobs and livelihoods and many their homes, because he didn’t get his way.
      He is also the one who refused to lockdown the country during a pandemic to protect American citizens and ensure that America could quickly return back to normal and instead, waited nearly three months to even say maybe people should stay home and then Governors, not Trump, started lockdowns.
      But due to the ridiculously late response, Americans need to stay in quarantine a much longer amount of time then would have been needed because the pandemic went rampant in America. This, of course, leaves millions unemployed and he refuses to help Americans survive this pandemic by providing them with enough money to survive until America is able to open again which may not happen for a while because of him, not them.
      He isn’t even trying to work towards temporarily stopping rent and mortgage payments so that people at least have a roof over their heads.
      And of course all the tax payer money that goes into his pocket when he golfs at his resorts and stays at his hotels along with those he is meeting with and his protective detail. This has come up to at least $134,000,000 already. Thanks to Covid though, he can’t play right now which should save tax payers some money.
      And of course Trump and his administration are the ones currently trying to end military deployments one single day shy of having to pay them certain military benefits.
      He is also the man who outsources his products to China and other out of the country places.
      He is also the man who hired illegal immigrants so he could pay them less money.
      Not to mention the suicides and other deaths caused by all the things he did.
      Also, during Trump's first 36 months in office, the US economy has gained 6.6 million jobs. But during a comparable 36-month period at the end of Obama's tenure, employers added 8.1 million jobs, or 23% more than what has been added since Trump took office.
      The average monthly gain so far under Trump is 182,000 jobs. During the last 36 months under Obama, employers were adding an average of 224,000 jobs a month.
      The job record under Trump is far better than the job record during Obama's first 35 months in office, when the economy lost 805,000 jobs. But Obama took office in the midst of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. In the final job reading before Obama took office, the economy lost 784,000 jobs in that month alone. And it continued to lose jobs throughout the rest of 2009 as Obama's economic policies went into effect.
      By comparison, Trump took office with the labor market in relatively good shape, with unemployment at 4.7%, and a string of 76 straight months of job gains. The labor market has clearly continued to improve. Unemployment of 3.6% in January is nearly at a 50-year low now. But it is a continuation of an improving job market, not the turnaround that occurred in the early years of the Obama administration.
      And Trump's job record is not unique. A gain of more than 6.6 million jobs during a 35-month period has been common during the 80 years that the Labor Department has counted jobs. There are hundreds of overlapping 36-month periods of better growth on record.
      At this point in his first and only term, Jimmy Carter had enjoyed a gain of about 10.1 million jobs. Employers added 8.5 million jobs during the first 36 months of Bill Clinton's term and 7.8 million jobs during the first 36 months of Lyndon Johnson's tenure, even though the labor force at that time was less than half the size of what it is today.
      From January 20, 2017, to November 1, Trump piled $3.1 trillion onto the debt, amounting to a 16% increase. That's significantly less than the $4.3 trillion President Barack Obama added from January 2009 to November 1, 2011, but far more than the $1.1 trillion Bush added in a similar period and the $794 billion Clinton did in 1,016 days as president.
      There is a key distinction separating the circumstances behind Trump and Obama's debt figures. Trump inherited an economy undergoing its longest sustained expansion. Obama, on the other hand, entered the White House as the nation veered into a recession that sparked massive stimulus spending and a bailout of the auto industry. This brought America out of the recession and made it much more stable by the time Trump came into the picture.

You can sit here all you want and argue but at the end of the day the only reason you care for Trump is the fact that you are a cis white straight privileged Male who will never be discriminated towards. And nothing will
      Ever be taken away from you. Because at the end of the day you have your white privilege and all Trump is doing is enforcing that in a positive light.

      We closed state borders early, had lockdown early, had early testing and as a result we are gradually easng some of the restrictions.
      Our Federal government has helped those who lost jobs with a special weekly payment to tide them over until things improve.
      We have had postal voting available forever and it does not lead to spurious results. I fear your President is suffering from early stages

      You're welcome to give as much money as you want to "people around you." What's stopping you? Compared to much of the rest of the world, there are few people in America who are "hungry and sick." Why is that? I'll answer: Freedom, Liberty, and Capitalism. Even our poorest live better than the poor in many other parts of the world. They drive cars, they have cell phones, a roof over their head, and plenty to eat. (The "homeless in L.A., San Francisco, and elsewhere have substance abuse problems and other problems that put them there.)
