I feel like I've been listening to a very different Trump than you have. Most of what he says involves demonizing various groups of people, cozying up to dictators, or putting his political opponents in jail. His rallies are about stoking outrage and fear.
> It's a message of peace with Russia
At the expense of Ukraine's sovereignty.
Is peace with Russia going to look like what happened with Afghanistan? The withdrawal plan and timeline was Trump's, not Biden's.
> making America healthy again
Every concrete proposal of his (not that he has many) that I've heard will bring us back on the inflation train, increase the deficit, reverse our declining reliance on fossil fuels, and increase income inequality even further. And on top of that he'll even further paralyze the federal government. Which is of course the conservative agenda in a nutshell: dismantle the federal government and let the states decide their fates, except where they want to impose their "values" on blue states.
> getting competent people in government (Musk), etc.
If you think Musk is competent and should be anywhere near government, our fundamentals are so different that there's probably no point in discussing it further.

It sounds more like you've been listening to what the news tells you Trump is.
"cozying up to dictators" is exactly the language used by MSNBC, CNN, CBS, et al. Putting his political opponents in jail is what his opposition tried.
The withdrawal plan is different from the execution, especially when only the high-level is followed. That is on Biden.

Again, this just sounds like what certain media tells you. I have never heard Trump say his goal is to "paralyze the federal government".
> It sounds more like you've been listening to what the news tells you Trump is.
I've been listening to the literal words that Trump says, by watching videos of his rallies.
Regardless, I'm not really interested in engaging with someone who's going to argue that "I'm listening wrong" instead of presenting a coherent argument.
