The former president made the claim in a new book, titled Save America, which is a collection of pictures and anecdotes from his presidential campaigns and term in office.

    Lower taxes, increasing oil production, stronger negotiations with world powers, securing the border, etc.

      Trump already had 4 years of presidency. How did he perform on all those merits that you just said?

        Pretty well except for exploding inflation and the deficit through the COVID-19 stimulus checks, and the relatively slow construction and repair of border wall

          Could you define pretty well? Make it concrete and then source all of it to support pretty well? And will it trump (yes bad word joke) the exceptions you mentioned?

            I mean…he did lower taxes.

            https://www.investopedia.com/taxes/trumps-tax-reform-plan-explained/

            He signed off on the Keystone XL pipeline as well.

            https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/trump-administration-approves-keystone-pipeline-on-u-s-land

            In fact, Trump oversaw the greatest increase in Oil production during his tenure, which likely helped keep oil and gas prices low during that time frame:

            With international affairs, he got along well enough with even enemies like Kim Jong Un to be able to set foot into North Korea, which no president has ever done before.

            https://www.cnn.com/2019/06/29/politics/kim-jong-un-donald-trump-dmz-north-korea/index.html

            He supported sanctions that Iran’s economy so that, among other things, they couldn’t fund terror operations like October 7th.
