The pitiable thing is some Nigerians...


Sitting behind their phone screens and chanting Donald Trump's praise like a broken record because nothing he does can ever be wrong.


I wonder when those ones will ever get sense!
But some or everything DT does is wrong according to you? Is it not more of a kettle calling pot black?

I wonder when you will get sense

They are the one that stood behind the evils befalling us today. If APC did not come in, Nigeria would have been recognized in the commity of nations. Today all we have to show is a 'country of particular concerns', very currupt with arrogant and evil administrators.

well said!

In America today, American Born citizens are NOW warning each other on social media about areas, neighborhoods and streets to AVOID because of the harassment of ICE Agents……. Can you imaginehuh?

Nigerians that have never held a passport in their entire lives are meanwhile hailing this “Train Wreck” causing mayhem ALL OVER the World. The fool is fighting like 10 DIFFERENT Countries at the SAME time plus the INTERNAL issues within the US.

Mark my word, this guy WILL NEVER STEP DOWN from that position . Didn’t we ALMOST see that in 2020??

America is a very enlightened society and I strongly believe that the vast majority of them support what Trump is doing.

I mean, who wouldn't? Why would I let anyone enter or live in my country without proper documentation? The only challenge here is that our African brothers and sisters are also targeted due to our bad leaders.

If they didn't like the idea, they would've been on the streets protesting.
you wouldn't let anyone live in your country without proper documentation but it is your bad government that forced your African brothers and sisters to flee to another man's country without proper documentation? huh huh huh

They are also wondering when people like you will get sense. In just one year, Trump has reduced violent crime in the US to its lowest since 1990. The US economy is growing at a faster rate than in the Biden economy. Inflation is less than Biden left it, but somehow, you want us to hate the man who ended 8 wars.
Your comment actually shows how powerful the media is , you repeat something so many times to peoples hearing at some point that start believing it .

Of the 35 cities whose homicide rates were in the analysis, all but eight had a lower murder rate in 2025 than before the pandemic, violent crime was already trending downwards since Biden administration so it not only a trump thing.

US Inflation and Trade deficit is low 2.7%because export value is low 37%. if the export value drops 37% it means the foreign consumer is paying 37% less for American goods which isn't a good thing the US has lost 37% of its exports . The US now has more(excess) of it's own goods to consume. It's basic economics the higher the supply the lower the price .

There has only been 6 ceasefire in trumps present tenure , only one was a war stopped ( Iran vs Israel) russia and Ukraine have broken their ceasefire and are back to throwing bombs at each other

Oga lets educate you, you are the one misinformed by the media.
So, I will not use the media; I will use unbiased AI to verify.

Based on preliminary data for 2025, violent crime in the United States reached its lowest rate in over 30 years.

The Downward Trend Since 1990
The early 1990s were the "peak" of violent crime in modern American history. Since then, there has been a dramatic decline, often referred to by sociologists as the "Great Crime Decline."
Why 2025 is a Landmark Year
While the official 2025 year-end report from the FBI usually takes a few months to be finalized, data from the FBI's Quarterly Uniform Crime Report and the Council on Criminal Justice show:

Homicides: By the end of 2025, homicide rates in many major cities (like New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago) dropped below their 2019 (pre-pandemic) levels.

Violent Crime Rate: The overall violent crime rate per 100,000 people in 2025 is estimated to be lower than at any point in the 1990s, 2000s, or 2010s.

The "Post-Pandemic" Correction: The spike that occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic has effectively been reversed in most categories of violent crime.

The Verdict: If your starting point is 1990, you are correct. You are living through one of the safest periods in the last three and a half decades.


Now lets talk exports
Again, you are wrong
In 2025, total US export values increased, continuing a growth trend that began in 2024. While final audited figures are typically refined throughout the first quarter of 2026, preliminary data shows that the US benefited from several key economic factors.

The 2025 Export Landscape
The total value of US exports for 2025 rose by approximately 3% to 4% compared to 2024. This growth was driven by three main sectors:

Energy Exports: The US remained a top global exporter of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and crude oil. Increased demand from Europe and parts of Asia kept the value of these exports high.

Services: High-value service exports—including software, intellectual property, and financial services—saw a significant boost as global digital transformation continued.

Aerospace & Tech: A recovery in aircraft deliveries and continued demand for advanced semiconductors (AI chips) added billions to the export total.

Finally, let's talk Peace deals
Again, you fail

Here is the list
The Gaza-Israel Permanent Ceasefire & Reconstruction Deal
Iran–Israel War Ceasefire (June 24, 2025)
DRC–Rwanda Peace Agreement (June 27 / December 4, 2025)
Armenia–Azerbaijan Peace Accord (August 2025)
Cambodia–Thailand Ceasefire (October 26, 2025)
India–Pakistan Tensions (2025)

This is more than any human in recorded History

He will step down as constitutionally required. It is democracy a.k.a tyranny of the majority. Enjoy it and while at it, also stop crying more than the bereaved as you are no different from his Nigerian supporters. You just haven't been allowed to weld your own tyranny - the tyranny of the minority.

do a little research. I would chose Forbes over any A.I .

You listed 2 wars and 4 conflicts , 6 ceasefires in total where is the 8 wars that have been stopped. Like I said the media repeats something long enough people start believing it .

Go and ask your AI if violent crime has been steady declining since 2021 ? You trying to say crime rate just started going down when trump became president is absolutely wrong .

Boss, are you confused here? The article above is talking only about 2 products and only the US export to China. Oga we are talking about the US total exports, not soybeans and cars exported to China.
This article below from Forbes will educate you better

Oga, this is still more than any human in the last 100 years. Again, DRC–Rwanda and Armenia–Azerbaijan were full-blown wars by any measure. I have been to the eastern DRC. The war there was one of the deadliest in Africa, and it was unending.

Go and ask your AI if violent crime has been steady declining since 2021 ? You trying to say crime rate just started going down when trump became president is absolutely wrong .

You are changing the topic, but let me educate you more. The crime rate dropped by a wopping 20% in 2025.Thats the biggest drop in a long time.
5 out of the FBI's top 10 most wanted were arrested.
So, while the dropping crime rate presided over by the Trump presidency, I will be a fool not to note the solid impact his administration has made.

Or is it because you're sympathetic to the terrorists in Nigeria?

The average Nigerian stands for nothing. Most of them cannot reason beyond "making it!" It's why Nigeria cannot grow beyond what we see today. We have a population of people that lack capacity to evolve beyond the primal state of nature.

If the what I highlighted above is true and Obama was successful in removing GEJ because of Gay law: why then didn’t the new president of Nigeria Buhari implement the so called gay law?
It was simply because it was already busted (casted) situation. Everyone (majority of Nigerians except few ones like you) got wind of it, even Robert Mugabe. 2015 GEJ eventually lost and 2017, Robert Mugabe was deposed as president of Zimbabwe...

All this one na mental gymnastics you de do. Wetin carry Mugabe come this talk nah.

You didn’t answer my question: why didn’t Buhari implement Obama’s so called ‘gay laws’ then?

Unless, of course, Those allegations about Obama pushing gayism in Africa are lies and you definitely know that.
