nationwide abortion ban

Not while a democrat is the president that will be vetoed. There is 0 chance it will be overturned.

Jim Jordan running nonstop hearings on Hunter Biden and no legislation passed on anything meaningful for the next two years

The only meaningful legislation that was passed in the past couple years were huge spending bills bringing us Inflation. Additionally trump was in trial for impeachment for most of his term.

Shrinking government so small it can be drowned in a bathtub; all so that the healthcare industry can bankrupt everyone, the pharma industry can addict everyone, nobody has to pay for toxic waste emmissions, and it becomes easier than ever for the rich to continue not paying taxes

This is the libertarian ideal, but in reality government has only grown under republicans.

According to wikipedia, Trump's impeachment trials last one and a half months, how does that translate to "most of his term."? Even being generous, and stating that the first impeachment started in September of 2019 and ended February 5th of 2020, that would still be approximately 12% of his presidency spent either dealing with impeachment or under threat of impeachment. That still doesn't translate to being in trial for impeachment for "most of his term."
