Not sure what Trump thinks. But he hasn't done much to help the people of PR and the Virgin Islands rebuild. They are two of the five major USA Territories.

Trump probably doesn't like the way FEMA doled out the money. Put restrictions on the rebuilding cash so the local crooks can't loot the booty. But it's been almost two years and these people are still in dire straights.

JMHO.

Obama, without doubt; the most politically 'correct' President of all time. still, not the worst president in U.S. history, and a far cry from even being in the top ten..

As far as JFK is concerned, you're off the grid, as many historians,

and consensus polls will assure you, JFK, one of Americas greatest presidents, up their with Abe, and George...can't imagine why on earth you posted the initials JFK as the worst president in U.S. history....senseless, to each his own

Presidents receive too much credit when economy does well and too much blame when economy slumps. Boom and bust cycles depend on luck. US economy is mostly driven by consumer spending and not by government. Looking at graphs, Trump's economy is on a similar trajectory as Obama's economy.

Trump gave me the biggest federal tax hike in my lifetime. Could take two baller vacations to Hawaii with the tax increase he gave me. So from a tax perspective and a "during my lifetime" perspective, hands down it's Trump.

Plus I called his socialist populism from Day 1. Trump is too dumb to be an actual capitalist. Wants to restrict trade, does restrict trade, doles out billions to the farmers he's destroying with his trade policies. Don't believe me? Ask Rand Paul why he called Trump a socialist.

When he was elected, I thought, "Well I'll try to look at this on the bright side . . . maybe he'll cut our taxes and not **** with the economy too much?" WRONG.

All we needed was someone smart enough to keep the status quo, instead we get someone who's upsetting one of the record stock markets in history. This year shouldn't have had so many days in the red, yet it has.

Are you basing your opinion on stock market gain?Feb, 1, 2009 S&P 500 883.24Nov 1 2016 - 2,164.99Try again. I do not know enough history to have a educated opinion but this ain't it. Never understood the fascination with Kennedy. The Bay of Pigs was a disaster. They trained people on farms in my town and just abandoned them when sheet got nut.

No I'm not basing my opinion on the stock market or the S&P. I'm basing it on my personal investments, and they've been earning damn near 20 points in Trump's tenure

Good for you, most of the middle class including many of my friends and coworkers got about half of a tax return as they did the year before. We can give huge corporations and businesses tax cuts and not make them pay any federal taxes but the hard working middle class gets less. I personally cant wait until Trump is out of office and very scared of the mess he will leave behind! Good luck to you!

Now that most most stocks are down on the year Trump��s na?vet�� is in full public view. He has failed with the trade war, and guess what - HIS corporate tax hike begins in 2022 per Bloomberg News. It attacks R&D and tech investment.

Big surprise, President Socialist Dotard is only acting in his own self interest. I just hope they remove him from power before he causes ANOTHER recession.

The amount of your return means nothing. It's an interest free loan to the federal government. Ideally, you should pay nothing and get nothing back.

I think Trump is the best in my lifetime. He saved us from becoming Europe 2.0; a quasi-Socialist country. No thanks.

Just my opinion. I know he's unpopular to the younger mugs.

I also think we should increase the voting age to 30 unless you have a military ID. I'll even settle for 25.

It would eliminate the undergrad know-it-all Liberal vote. The same sheltered/naive kids with little life experience who dont know the value of money bc mommy and daddy is financing their Liberal indoctrination.

Yeah, eliminate that vote.

Wow, cant say I agree with any of that! But, good luck to you and your President! I wake up every day hoping the news headlines say that he got impeached.

I wake up everyday and look at non-retirement portfolio and thank this Admin for deregulation and tax reform.

Invest accordingly. Hellen passed the hot potato with Bernanke's bubble. More aggressive QE seems to be the word to stave off an inevitable recession.

As long as the economy is hot before 2020, he'll be in Office until Jan 2025. Thank God for that.

And like I said, I know he's not popular among the younger mugs.
