Trump accomplished more than most two-term presidents

There is one letter writer, that over time has shown a disregard for the facts. Going back to his October 22, 2020, letter the author listed as fact certain “promises” made then by President Donald Trump.

Keystone Pipeline - President Joseph Biden issued an executive order, eliminating 11,000 jobs, canceling the permit and one can assume that it was being built.

Tax cut – did benefit the lower and middle class (I know).

The wall – built over 400 miles by Oct. 22, 2020; again Biden issued executive order stopping and paying $2 billion in penalties to contractors.

Eliminated 100% of caliphate (ISIS) back in August 2020.

Stopped overseas job loss – jobs did begin to returned to U.S.

Missed vaccine completion by Election Day; turns out that CEO of vaccine delayed announcement until after election.

So far audits of elections results show that election problems did occur.

Middle East peace – Abraham Accords announced with three Arab countries now recognizing Israel more progress since Oslo Accords.

Release of tax records — my take, he was protecting his co-investors from harassment and vilification.

China tariffs - where did the funds paid to the farmers come from?

This shows more accomplishment by one president in four years on the job with one hand tied behind his back compared to two-term prior presidents. Find me one person that bats 100% (baseball or politician). Not possible.
