Trump Trumps Hillary

If you are one of the millions of people devastated by Hillary Clinton’s recent loss in the 2016 Presidential Election, you aren’t alone. In the time since November 8th, many have taken to social media to voice their sorrows on Clinton’s loss. What seemed like a sure fire win for Ms. Clinton turned into a nightmare for many.

If you are one of the millions of people overjoyed by Donald Trump’s recent win in the 2016 Presidential Election, you aren’t alone. In the time since November 8th, many have taken to social media to voice their excitement about Trump’s win. What seemed like an accepted defeat for Mr. Trump turned into quite the different reality.

Whether you were supporting Trump or Clinton in the election, the reality is that Trump is going to replace Barack Obama as our president. It’s time to accept America’s fate and have faith in our next leader. While Trump is brash and didn’t have the gentlest approach or appeal to voters, he will have the best interests of Americans at the palm of his hands for the next four years. Did Hillary try to appeal to the middle class better….absolutely. Did she have more political experience….without a doubt. But is that to say that she would do a better job than Donald Trump….no. Trump is not in office yet and there is no telling what the upcoming years will have in store.

For all we know, Donald Trump’s years of business skills, world wide connections, and outgoing personality could actually benefit the United States. The collective groan that comes with the name Trump in nearly half of the American population is premature at best. By proclaiming “Not my President”, the American people are simply showing a disconnected nation that in turn, shows weakness to external and internal threats. Instead of mourning a politician’s loss or celebrating their victory, we should be celebrating America, and not just on Fourth of July with hot dogs and fireworks. The United States is a pretty awesome country with deeply rooted values, and no political figure can change the passion of the people.

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.
