The Accomplishments of President Trump

Liberty Counsel (thanks to Amil Imani):

Since President Donald Trump took office on January 20, 2017, he has already become the most
pro-America, pro-business, pro-military, pro-law enforcement, pro-life, pro-religious liberty, and
pro-Israel president in the history of the United States.

As of September 1, 2020, the United States Senate has confirmed 203 Article III judges
nominated by President Trump, including two associate justices of the Supreme Court of the
United States, 53 judges for the United States courts of appeals, 146 judges for the United States

Trump POTUS has proven himself to be a great POTUS. Who in history has a better record than Trump. How good Raegan was he was not under constant fire from the lefty bastards. I doubt that Raegan could hold up with the constant pressure as Trump is doing.
