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.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
