United We Stand, Divided We Fall

I hear every single day about how social workers are supposed to be against President Donald Trump. I have never been one who is up to date on recent politics. But, as a future social worker, I do support and value other's opinions.

I am a female. I support Donald Trump.

I am a social work student. I support Donald Trump.

I am a person who believes in giving those that share different views than my own a chance. I support Donald Trump.

No matter who is President, we have to live in a country where they are there for at least four years.

We, as social workers, are told to not give up on people and to give other's a chance (no matter how many times they fail us). That is what we have to do with our President Donald Trump.

The big issue right now that is the talk of all my classes, is the overturn on Obamacare/Affordable Healthcare Act. I did some research and found out Trump is revising the health care reform. Donald Trump plans to make healthcare more affordable because under Obamacare the deductibles are so high that it becomes a useless insurance to have. Many people cannot afford "affordable healthcare." Ironic right? Affordable healthcare is not so affordable. The monthly payments might seem low, but if you dig in and do some research, the deductibles are very high and the actual coverage is very low. Also, those who do not have health insurance face high penalty costs. Which does not seem fair in the Land of the Free, now does it?

I personally was trying to get Obamacare a couple years ago and was told I did not make enough money to qualify. Now, isn't that something to laugh about? Not making enough money for AFFORDABLE healthcare?

I support Donald Trump and his perspective to revise the health care issue and make it to where people can truly afford it and make use of the insurance.

Complaining to a classroom of social workers every single day will not change the fact that yes, Donald Trump is our President. As social workers, we are taught to work in impossible situations that we might not always like, but guess what? We do it because it's our passion and profession.We learn that everyone has strengths and deserves rights as a human being, we owe it to Donald Trump and America, to at least give him a chance.

I can guarantee, if Hilary Clinton would have won, people would still find ways to say she should not be our President either.

So sit back, breathe, and hold on tight for the next for years because Donald Trump is, in fact, our President.
