Donald Trump: The Good, The Bad And The Ugly

The Union

On November 8th, 2016 Donald Trump was elected as the 45th president of the United States of America, creating mixed emotions from the country with some very satisfied and with others absolutely outraged over the result.

The Good

While there may not be many good attributes associated with Donald Trump, he was elected president because people saw some good in him. He is a very successful businessman, so during his presidency, he will make policies to make sure that our country can generate more jobs and to make our economy stronger which is an aspect the United States needs to improve upon to become a stronger country. He also has a alternate plan to help the middle class that would replace Obamacare which turned out to be a failure in the majority of our country's eyes.

The Bad

Donald Trump has said a lot of controversial points during his campaign that have outraged people, including building a wall to divide United States and Mexico. Another includes banning all Muslims from America in response to the shootings that have happened throughout the last year; in addition, he has also made multiple racist, extremist and Islamophobic comments that have outraged people. With that kind of blatant immaturity, many people are calling him a disaster before he has even started his four year term in office.

The Ugly

Donald Trump has also had many allegations come towards him including rape allegations and many controversial comments including calling previous Ms. Americas ugly or unfitting. Also, since Donald Trump won the presidency, thousands of people have been protesting throughout some of the biggest cities while police forcefully use tear gas and arrest thousands of people.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
