Why We Are Optimistic About The Trump Administration

The Democrats are too busy crying.

Why We Are Optimistic About The Trump Administration
Slate

This past few weeks have been exhilarating, and it would seem that majority of the nation is optimistic about the prospects of the Trump administration. Sure, there might be protestors, Hollywood celebrities, left-wing feminists, Democrats, and other liberals who are still crying about the results of the election, but they are in the minority. The silent majority Americans who are middle-class working folks are too busy working to cause a ruckus, but they will voice their opinions in the voting booths. These liberals apparently are still in denial that Trump is President, and it is such a shame they have shown that they will not work with Trump by filibustering cabinet nominees and fueling hate against the current President. The Democrats have become a bunch of obstructionists who will put the party above the country and would rather see this country go up in flames than actually work with President Trump.

But who cares about what the Democrats think?

In the upcoming mid-terms, the Republicans will gain a supermajority, and the Democrats will be in full retreat. The stock market seems optimistic, with the top three stock market indexes posting record closing highs. Deregulation will create opportunities for small businesses to flourish again and for corporations to expand. The oil and gas sector are expected to receive tax breaks, and the U.S. is on course to be self-sufficient in terms of energy.

Industrials, construction, financials, defense, and tech sectors are all showing optimism to the Trump administration. It is also expected that the income tax will be lowered in the sense that the curve will be flattened, which means middle-income households have more money to spend. The building of the wall along with other infrastructure developments will actually stimulate the economy and with the currently strong dollar to back it all up, everything looks good for the next two quarters.

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.
