I see from your profile that you're from The Netherlands, so understand that the news you hear about Trump is not the whole story.

I'm not convinced that Harris would've been much better. She was given essentially one job: border Czar and she failed miserably at that. Although, I guess the open borders policy that encouraged unprecedented illegal immigration was intentional. and probably part of the greater globalist agenda. She is a DEI hire, chosen only because of her gender and skin color. Biden literally said he was going to choose a woman of color to be his vice president. Bear in mind that Harris was the first major Democrat candidate to be forced out of the primary, so she was not at all chosen on merit.

Despite what you hear, Trump is a much more popular president than Biden was here and he is mostly doing what people elected him to do. He's had a few missteps for sure, for example he needs to just release the Epstein files already and please stop talking shit about annexing Greenland and Canada. He also needs to stop licking Israel's boots so much. That being said, he's doing a fantastic job with securing the border, foreign policy (he's helped to secure several peace agreements... https://www.newsweek.com/map-shows-where-donald-trump-has-he...), and so far the economy has been noticeably better than under Biden. Also, the way he handled the assassination attempt (that the media has done their best to memory hole) was incredible. He jumped up, blood dripping from his ear shouting fight, fight, fight! That picture of him with his fist raised and the secret service agents holding him back is just so powerful and iconic, just very Presidential.

He's also much more transparent than the previous administration. Biden would give extremely rare, short, scripted interviews with the press where he literally had maps of who to call on and what to reply back to their scripted questions. Even then, he would often botch the press interviews. In contrast, Trump gives frequent, lengthy, off the cuff unscripted interviews. He also, for good or for bad, posts frequently to social media with his real honest opinions and positions. People like that he has a certain air of authenticity about him. He's not the typical American politician that dances around questions and speaks only with perfect, politically correct, focus group tested language.

The news media in America is heavily biased towards the left and does everything they can to cast him in a negative light, so it is important to view everything you hear about him through that lens.
