I'm sorry you think you're a victim.

It starts with “funny how you think the left can invent truth….” I don’t recall the “orange”comment to me, but it shows how low the discourse is here so my comments seem appropriate. I think your WOKE agenda is getting to you Mickey or Minnie, Goofy….whatever you identify now.

Thanks for the first step of the list. But I'd like to see those put into context with articles on how things were better under Trump. Show your work.
For example, the price of gas under T was lower than it is today, why? The answer is that Covid brought the demand down which meant that pricing slumped.

Please explain what happened at the borders during Trump's admin that made US citizens safer? And include the illegal detention of those seeking asylum which broken international laws. Was it worth the world lambasting the US for its reckless and inhumane actions?

Economy; yes there is record inflation. It stems from supply chain interruptions and price gouging by shipping companies, manufacturers and more that were caused by Covid globally. The US is doing better than all the other nations in recuperating from the impact of Covid and fighting inflation. That recovery has been thanks to the actions of Biden, thanks to the resilience of the American people and thanks to vaccinations protecting people from going bankrupt having to survive a bout of Covid.

Jobs; the US has never seen a jobs recovery like we're having now, it's remarkable and historic at a higher rate than even Trump dreamed of.

But I'm taking too much of the page up, you can go ahead and make your point with facts and I'll read with an open mind.

An itmeized list would help.

I'm more than willing to listen and not hurl insults when actual examples are given of what good things Trump did for this Country. I've looked far and wide and haven't seen one yet so please do provide some actual examples.

[dorankj]

I don’t know how to attach responses but my statement from “fewer trolls since the war” is when I stated my position regarding Trump and you didn’t listen and proceeded to hurl insults.

Was their product development chief really named "Billy Boozer" or was that a pseudonym?

I'm serious. I have a hard time understanding how the tech people behind this messed up so badly. They forked existing code (Mastodon) that already had Android and IOS apps, so it is hard to understand how those didn't work when they forked it to Truth Social. There were no "brains" behind Truth Social's technology at Truth Social.

[dorankj]

You literally will not listen when we do! You only “hurl insults”.

[PAL]

It seems they can not tell us what he got right. I have asked people and they only hurl insults. Because they can't think of anything, I guess.
Just tell me and then I can think about it and maybe even say something, like, you have point. Or maybe so.

What a joke... Another Trump business fubar...

Tech chief Josh Adams and product development chief Billy Boozer have resigned from former President Donald Trump's 'Truth Social' in less than a year, Reuters reports. Sources said, "If Josh has left… all bets are off," calling him the "brains" behind Truth Social's technology. Boozer also had a significant leadership role as product chief, running management across technology infrastructure, design, and development teams. The departures followed the troubled launch of the company's Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPhone app on February 20. Truth Social looked to go public via a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merger with Digital World Acquisition Corp (NASDAQ: DWAC). The platform promised to give Trump unfettered communication after Twitter Inc (NYSE: TWTR), Facebook rebranded Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ: FB), and Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) YouTube banned him for his role in the U.S. Capitol riot. Weeks later, many users remained on Truth Social's waiting list, unable to access the platform. Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) CEO Devin Nunes, a former Republican, confirmed making the app fully operational within the U.S. by the end of March. Separately, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) CEO Elon Musk disclosed a 9.2% stake in Twitter shortly after expressing a desire to create an alternative to the social media platform. Price Action: DWAC shares traded lower by 11.30% at $56.08 on the last check Monday. Photo via Wikimedia Commons
