Instead of writing an opinion piece about President Trump and his battle with the Wuhan virus, I thought that this might be a good time to concentrate on what is not opinion, but rather fact . . . Trump’s accomplishments during his presidency. The following should not be considered as a complete mist – but instead only a partial list, with more to come.
(Because the list of President Trump’s accomplishments is so long, a single blog listing them would be way too long. Therefore, I am going to divide his list of accomplishments into multiple parts.)
Please forward each of these to your entire email mailing list:
Trump recently signed three bills to benefit Native people. One gives compensation to the Spokane tribe for loss of their lands in the mid-1900s, one funds Native language programs, and the third gives federal recognition to the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians in Montana.
Trump finalized the creation of Space Force as our 6th Military branch.
