What's the best reason to vote for Trump? (lemmy.world)

I'm not from the US, so I'm curious why Americans still wants him back. I always see him as a bad mouthed guy and was worse when he lost in 2020. But feel free to change my mind. This question is also for non-trump supporters who can think of one thing (if you can) on why he's good for the top position.

They just think "look at all this inflation we've had under Biden! It wasn't like this when Trump was in control." Of course they can't think far enough to realize that perhaps a global pandemic caused this inflation and there was little that Biden could have done to stop it.

Which is particularly painful because Trump overheated the economy before the global pandemic even got off the ground. It's a sort of miracle things aren't worse than they are in that regard.
