Why I Am Glad We Now Have President Donald J. Trump

Most of the country might be angry, but I'm not at all.

I am a nineteen-year-old female and I am glad Donald Trump is our president. Yes, I voted for him while all my other friends posted things on social media bashing him in every possible way. Do I agree with all the things he said during his campaign? No. But there are plenty of other reasons that make me glad he is now President Donald J. Trump.

1. Defund Planned Parenthood.

I am pro-life and defunding Planned Parenthood is an issue I am very passionate about. Videos have been released showing they are in fact corrupt and not at all for women. They do not offer mammograms and they get most of their profit comes from abortions. Their unjust ideas go all the way back to their founder, Marget Sanger. 100 years is too long for them to be open and it is the time that all of their doors close.

2. Replace Obama Care.

Obama's health care plan was a mess. Trump is planning on replacing it with Health Savings Accounts. This lets states control Medicaid and will help the 4,000 drugs awaiting FDA approval move faster.

3. Rebuild the military.

With the amount of terrorism in our world, our army can get all the help it can it. As someone who has veterans (thank you to all of them) in their family, I fully support our servicemen and women. It will protect the citizens of the United States.

4. End the Offshoring Act.

For those who don't know, this act allows companies to lay off their employees so that they can relocate. If Trump ends it, more jobs will come back to American citizens.

5. Find a replacement for Justice Scalia.

Due to the fact President Trump is Republican, he will choose a justice who shares his same views. This will be a win for those of use who are trying so hard to protect the rights of the unborn.

6. Limit the term length of members of Congress.

Let's be honest, those members are in there for a long time. It will help get new faces and new views into it.

Now is the time to accept the fact that he is president. No amount of rioting, posting negative posts on social media, or saying "He is not my president!" is going to change that. If you are a citizen of the United States of America, he is your president. If you are uncomfortable with that, then maybe too many people in this country have been stuck in their comfort zones. This country needs someone who is going to speak out regardless if it makes a person uncomfortable. It is about time someone like President Trump takes office. Here's to the next four years.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
