He Is Your President

I don't love him, but we can't change the votes

He Is Your President

I know most are not happy with the outcome of this election, I am not thrilled by any means either, but there is nothing we can do now, so we have to accept it. The jokes about leaving the country if Trump becomes president were all fun and games until he actually became out president-elect. As much as it pains me to think about having a Mr. President Trump, it is now becoming a reality. Trust me, I am just as guilty as the other anti-trump people of not accepting the fact that he is our president and spreading the fear across Facebook and Twitter. When I face a difficult or bad situation, I try to look on the brighter side and find good things in the non-ideal situation. I went through some of the things that Trump plans to do in his first 100 days in office and found a few good things that is planning on doing.

1. Trump plans on getting rid of the corruption in Washington

He wants to implement term limits on Congressmen and women to avoid any one member from always winning the election. He also wants to impose a complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American elections.

2. Trump is planning on working with Congress to introduce some broader legislative measures

He plans on introducing the School Choice And Education Opportunity Act which will relocate education funds to allow parents full choice on how and where to educate their children. It will also eliminate common core and allows the education supervision to be localized. The act will also make 2 and 4 year colleges more affordable.

Trump plans on introducing the Repeal and Replace Obamacare Act. This would replace Obamacare with a Health Savings Accounts, the ability to purchase health insurance across state lines, and it would allow states to manage Medicaid funds. This would also loosen the strings on the FDA and allow lifesaving medications to be legalized.

I know this is not much to look forward to these next four years that Trump will be in office, but it is better than nothing. Hillary Clinton stated that she wants us to come together to work with our next President in order for this country to stay united as one. We have to keep moving forward and allow Trump to show us how he is going to operate in the White House.

We need to stop the protests and riots and the "He is not my President" nonsense. Some people have stated that we let hate win when Trump was elected to be out next President but I say that if we stay together and work with Trump instead of against him, hate will never, ever win.

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. 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.
