The party that spent by far, the most money in the 2024 Presidential

1.5 % is _not_ a significant margin. In terms of US Presidential

Does seem to be a fairly low margin, as ever with politics and folks who

The significance was that every state vote count swung towards the
GOP, and that the popular vote was also for the GOP. That was a
significant swing towards the GOP in spite of the playing down by the

The left is making a big issue out of Bernie Sanders who is a self

President as do I. Socialism doesn't fly very high in the USA.

I suspect he’s rather less of socialist that you think, US politics is
fairly right wing ie the democrats even from a UK perspective look middling
rather and certainly not far left or any such kind of thing.

 Sanders has always described himself as a socialist.

Trump is not a very nice person, but I voted for him twice based on
what I believed he could do for the country, and also because of the
even more disgusting nature of his opposition.

Considering the harm he appears to be causing that may have been an unwise
decision.

 Ahhhh, Apparently, you've been listening to the same news media that
spent four years claiming that Joe Biden was competent and managing
Presidential duties properly. Why do listen to those dishonest
Jackasses?
 I applaud what Trump is doing. Closing the border, getting rid of
illegals, eliminating wasteful spending, forcing other countries to
reconsider their tariffs. It's what he said he was going to do and
that's why he won.

I am a bit more reserved, being either blessed or cursed with a fairly good memory.
Mr Reagan set up the Grace Commission, led by the energetic informed and competent Peter Grace, which wrote an excellent guide to removing blatant fraud waste and abuse of Federal expenditures.
https://archive.org/details/GraceCommissionReport
Which naturally accomplished roughly nothing once various Congressmen discovered the problems were in their districts.
Mr Clinton began a priority domestic policy in early 1993 by assigning Mr Gore to do the same. Despite apparent sincerity and the best wishes of taxpayers across the political spectrum, nothing happened.
I support Mr Trump's posturing, despite his relatively lax habits in the first term.  But in our convoluted actual system, 'draining the swamp' sounds great until you run into the swamp's lethal defenses, which are more formidable than is generally known. I'm hopeful despite corruption's undefeated track record but I'll wait for results before celebrating.
