No false. He is easily the best President since Eisenhower. There has never been as fierce opposition to all aspects of his executive governance within living but nagger faggots never account for that.
And even if I accepted your statement as the. Tell who do you think is better that stands a remote chance in hell of sittinin be Oval Office?

Lip service isn't enough. He's all talk at best, and destructive to the cause at worst. Anyone can say what he's said. That's not special. He's done extremely little to validate what he says in the form of action. I only care about results. Trump has not produced a sufficient amount of results.
If that Pidgin English means what I think it does, Ron Paul. A man who actually hates Israel, and isn't a pussy.

This is a non-criticism as it ignores the actual legislative/legal opposition going on. Consider the border wall funding appropriation, there was not one, but two legal challenges.
Consider deportation of illegals, there are dozens of polities flaunting federal law. Trump has ordered that funds for sanctuary cities be with held, they fill suit and he loses but then he wins in the 9th circuit.
The 9th circuit was one of the major tools that progressives used to ram rod bullshit law by judicial decree down our throats but Trump has been replacing those judges with his own.
This is just a small sampling of the consistent amount of opposition Trump has faced. Never has a president, outside of the civil war, contend with hostility to his policy as both local and federal governance. Remember the multiple travel bans and challenges? The Kavanaugh hearing bullshit? That he shut down the government over wall funding? The list goes fucking on and on. Everything he tries to put in place gets a legislative and legal challenge.
Again, people pissing and moaning that Trump is not doing enough are being willfully ignorant to the dozens of battles being fought every day at all levels of government and that we are essentially in the first phase of civil war already.
I like Paul too but he wouldn't be able to get half as much done as Trump.
