Maybe We Should Give President Elect Trump A Chance

Maybe he could turn the country around

Maybe We Should Give President Elect Trump A Chance
CNN.com

Let me begin by saying that during the primaries, i voted for Marco Rubio and after Trump won the primaries, I did not immediately say, "hey, now i'm voting for Trump." I actually looked at my different options from trump, to Johnson, to even Evan Mcmullin. After doing my research on all of the candidates i decided that I sided more with Trump on more issues and I felt that maybe he had the potential to run the country the best out of all of them. I know that Donald Trump said A LOT of stupid things, but I do believe that Donald Trump has the potential to turn this country around with the help of his future cabinet as well as the house and the senate; we just need to give him a chance. Trump is a very good business man and I believe that he could help the economy of the United States and maybe take away some of the national debt that we have acquired over the years.He has even gone as far as to not take a salary and he also said that he does not want Boeing to build a new Air Force One because he want to use his own plane. Let's be honest, his foreign policy is still kind of spotty, but he never really had to do much with foreign policy because he was not a career politician and he is just now learning the ropes about it all, but he has already started giving some commentary on certain foreign policy issues such as dealing with the United Nations or about if we should help Israel. The last thing I will say about it is that I do believe that Donald Trump will put the American people first. I know that a lot of people think that he will put America on the back burners when he gets in, but he has already shown that he wants to put us first. After the hurricane in Louisiana, he was down there helping them out and he even paid for a truck full of supplies to help the people out. He also wants to set up a plan to help out failing schools and try to make them better and he wants to try to fix cities that are starting to fail. Like I said at the beginning: he has said stupid things, but I believe that if we all get behind and try to do our best to help him, that maybe we could unite this country and maybe turn America into something great.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
