Why We Are Optimistic About The Trump Administration

The Democrats are too busy crying.

Why We Are Optimistic About The Trump Administration
Slate

This past few weeks have been exhilarating, and it would seem that majority of the nation is optimistic about the prospects of the Trump administration. Sure, there might be protestors, Hollywood celebrities, left-wing feminists, Democrats, and other liberals who are still crying about the results of the election, but they are in the minority. The silent majority Americans who are middle-class working folks are too busy working to cause a ruckus, but they will voice their opinions in the voting booths. These liberals apparently are still in denial that Trump is President, and it is such a shame they have shown that they will not work with Trump by filibustering cabinet nominees and fueling hate against the current President. The Democrats have become a bunch of obstructionists who will put the party above the country and would rather see this country go up in flames than actually work with President Trump.

But who cares about what the Democrats think?

In the upcoming mid-terms, the Republicans will gain a supermajority, and the Democrats will be in full retreat. The stock market seems optimistic, with the top three stock market indexes posting record closing highs. Deregulation will create opportunities for small businesses to flourish again and for corporations to expand. The oil and gas sector are expected to receive tax breaks, and the U.S. is on course to be self-sufficient in terms of energy.

Industrials, construction, financials, defense, and tech sectors are all showing optimism to the Trump administration. It is also expected that the income tax will be lowered in the sense that the curve will be flattened, which means middle-income households have more money to spend. The building of the wall along with other infrastructure developments will actually stimulate the economy and with the currently strong dollar to back it all up, everything looks good for the next two quarters.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
