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.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
