A recent social media post by Robert J Salvador has vigorously defended former President Donald Trump, citing a range of perceived achievements and future economic strategies while dismissing critics and ongoing legal challenges. The tweet, which garnered significant attention, framed the former president as a target of "law-fare" and lauded his impact on various domestic and international fronts. This comes as Trump faces a substantial civil fraud judgment in New York, related in part to the valuation of properties like Mar-a-Lago, where he was ordered to pay over $350 million.
Salvador highlighted what he described as Trump's success in "completely ended US energy dependence on major adversaries," a claim echoing the U.S. transition to a net exporter of crude oil and petroleum products during the Trump administration, a trend that began prior to his term. The post also praised Trump's economic vision, asserting he is "positioning the USA to win economically for the next 25 years," alongside a recent proposal to eliminate federal income taxes on tips for service workers, a campaign promise currently under discussion.
Geopolitically, the tweet contended that "Russia, China, Iran are all weaker because of his presidency," and that "America is respected by every military in the world again." While the Trump administration adopted confrontational stances, such as a trade war with China and withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal, the overall assessment of these nations' global standing remains complex among experts. Domestically, Salvador claimed "the border is closed" and "Trans madness in children has fallen back to near 0%," despite U.S. Customs and Border Protection data showing fluctuating border encounters and no evidence supporting a near-zero prevalence of transgender identity or related healthcare needs.
The post also asserted that "more people are going to church than ever," a statement that contrasts with data from Gallup and Pew Research Center indicating a continued decline in U.S. church membership and attendance during and after the Trump presidency. Salvador further lauded "small wins for Americans, like no tax on tips and no longer removing shoes at the airport," though the latter, regarding TSA policy, remains factually incorrect for general travelers. The tweet dismissed various media personalities, stating, "I DON’T care about Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, Dan Bilzarian, Nick Fuentes or any podcaster who built their name off Trump."
Salvador concluded by emphasizing Trump's enduring influence, stating, "Trump controls media cycles and more resources than you understand." This strong defense positions the former president as a resilient figure whose movement is unaffected by criticism, echoing sentiments from past electoral cycles. The tweet reflects a fervent belief in Trump's capabilities and his perceived ability to navigate political and legal challenges.
